It just doesn't seem fair

Went to the local quarterly kit collectors show yesterday. The wife ended up picking out three kits (for me to build) & I only got one. It's been like this for quite a few shows now. I think she likes the show better than me. I'll never get rid of my stack. Life's tough.



4 new kits and your wife helped carry them for ya. I agree - life isn't fair. MY LIFE isn't fair!!!

Way back when I dated a gal for a few years where dinner and shopping was a pretty stable routine of ours. I was big into NASCAR and it wasn't uncommon for her to spot kits and toss 'em in the cart before I laid eyes on them. If she were out and about and spotted a sale she'd bring a few home.

In the end we traded each other in. I was young and figured all women would pretty much have the same or an approximate attitude.

Ouch! That was reality biting.

In fact, one of the ones she got was a NASCAR. She has so many of them she lost track. It turned out she already had it. She also got a Statue of Liberty (because they almost gave it away), & a Trumpeter LaFrance fire truck, complete w/photo etch. I'm really looking forward to building that one. I got the Revell Apollo Astronaut on the Moon. All four for the princely sum of $105.

A couple of sisters, who could raise a few blisters? Doug

You could probably sand them out,a coat of Future,and no one will notice.

...unless they're sand blasted and titanic...
