clearly indicates that they have historically been one of the best teams in the world

Because you win an FA cup now and again, that doesn't make you one of the best teams in the world. Winning the amount of league titles, FA cups, and Champions leagues that Man U and Liverpool have is what makes you one of the finest teams in the world.
Stop talking absolute clap trap the pair of you. :wink:


Dave,
Hello?
Can you show us where anyone identified themselves as a supporter of that team ?
If you trying to make out you are some big masculine sports jock to make up for past
self imposed humiliations then some might consider that over compensating!

Shall we all just agree that Big 'long thread' Dave is our butch sports reporter and leave it at that?

ROTFLMAO!
TD :wink:

He had the frame and covered the fuselage and then the wings in our long ranch-style living room.

It was an LK 1942. He called it the "Tiajuana Taxi" after the popular Herb Alpert hit of the day. My

dad was a WWII test pilot and was later president of Sperry Phoenix Flight Systems - missle guidance

systems - Top Secret, etc. We moved from New York to build the plant, from Sperry Gyroscope on Long Island.

Even though this has nada to do with RLC, I have to put my two pennies worth in, and I'm quite happy cause my team are doing rather well at the moment.

P.S, we all know Man U fans are just like rats. ie:- you are never more than a foot away from one :lol:
I'd love to post about Liverpool, but it's just too vulgar.

Here`s that LK-10 with a great paint job! I didn`t realize that those Hotspur MKs were so huge! So the LKs were training

gliders, thank you. My dad and brother also built guide-liner models and flew them. They had one with this paint job. I

used to paint the model pilots for them, they flew in contests all over the West. My brother graduated to radio-control

when he grew up and he`s a pilot as well. He had his own plane for awhile.

Shouldn't that be 'I will not say' rather than 'I cannot say'? Even you must be able to ascertain your own gender.

Forgive me but I do believe you've mistaken me for some one who cares.

TD :lol:

Indeed, and in fact it was customary in that period to paint young men with more effeminate features to denote youth.

I rest my case Tim and SP. Show me evidence anywhere on this planet where Leonardo admits that he paints men with effeminate features!
Absolute rubbish.

Dave,
I'm on neither side, but don't you think that the John The Baptist figure looks remarkably like the Mona Lisa? I thought that I'd read that artists of the time used male models for female figures and also relied upon a book to give insight into the commonly accepted religious scenes (Legenda Aurea) - maybe I dreamt that.
It doesn't follow that Da Vinci or any other artist has to actually state what they've done to make it 'true' - surely if anyone were to paint the Last Supper, you would expect that painting to contain the characters that were accepted as being there. It would have been very odd if someone painted the last supper with 40 people there, or just Jesus and a dog - how would you know it was the last supper?
