@agent_cooper likely you mean B-17, but I take your meaning! Saw it yesterday and it woke me this morning around 9. – 06:38 PM GMT
.@agent_cooper they’ll be here today and tomorrow, B-17, B-29, and a Mustang. Fell asleep after hearing it this morning, dreamt I was on it. – 06:39 PM GMT
@agent_cooper B-29? I think maybe I mean a B-24. Hang on. – 06:40 PM GMT
@agent_cooper I do mean B-24. collingsfoundation.org/cf_schedule-wo… – 06:41 PM GMT

Having slept on it: if you live in Seattle, love comics history, and have a chance and five hours to rub together, go see Kavalier & Klay. – 06:49 PM GMT
A worthy adaptation. book-it.org/mainstageseaso… – through July 13. iI suppose it might help to have read the book, but not a requirement. – 06:51 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt yes! – 08:16 PM GMT

@mubay @agent_cooper then, looking forward, he took us under the bridge, and then below some residential pole-mounted lines. – 08:21 PM GMT
@mubay @agent_cooper I told him his liability insurance couldn’t possibly cover that. he then flew alongside of a semi back to Boeing Field – 08:22 PM GMT

@manwhoyells heck no! fiftythree’s apps are weak and strongly oriented to pay-per-feature. good marketing, though. – 01:04 AM GMT
$20 Aeron exploratory teardown a success! Mfr date: 05/98. No way to address stripped tensioning driver gear: tension unit seems worn out. – 01:07 AM GMT
Which, hey, $20, so no big deal. Unit was built and delivered sans tilt lock/limiter, and has the tear-down to reposition arms. – 01:09 AM GMT
Plenty of parts catalogs and teardown/fixit vids. However, the tilt lock/limiter set is restricted from direct consumer sale by mfr. – 01:10 AM GMT
I have not seen tensioning unit replacement videos and suspect that part too is mfr restricted. saw the lock-limiter set quoting at $179. – 01:11 AM GMT
before labor, mind. more legwork later. strongly suspect legit parts/labor to refurb will exceed new chair price (about $499, i think). – 01:12 AM GMT

@arthurwyatt it was there but minor. Came in via Epic, Marvel’s answer to MH in its’ US incarnation. late 70s. – 01:48 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt there were full-color all-over page comps pre DKR too. But DKR’s commitment to tight repro with a top-line character was new. – 01:49 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt Via Epic, there was a full-paint series by jim starlin (?) involving neo-egyptian gods or something. – 01:50 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt generally speaking, moving past the trad 4-color look was in response to eurocomix, no question. Bilal, Moebius, Druillet. – 01:51 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt in the late-70s US stuff that was full-paint I recall a guy, pepe moreno, in particular. think he was even on NBM. – 01:52 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt Anyway, torrent up some of those old Epic issues and you can see what I mean. Extant but not used for underwear pervs mostly. – 01:54 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt seems like maybe Star*Reach had some early Elric adaptations that were painted but reproed in screened b/w – 01:56 AM GMT
