How’s your week shaping up Oppo?
This is the tube frame to a famous aircraft. Do you know which one? This shouldn’t be too difficult.
Answer: If you guessed the Spirit of St. Louis (Ryan NY-P) , you win the Inter net today. No front window on the NY-P, since Lindbergh sat behind a giant gas tank. You can see the rudder pedals in the middle of the framework.

Spirit of St. Louis?
Good morning to you, too.

I’m trying to get a bunch of engineers on a video call. It’s going as expected...

That’s my vote. Framing for where the windows should be. Stick and pedal framing behind a big square box meaning no real visibility forward.

Good morning. Here’s something I ran across while waiting for laundry to finish last night:

I t’s better than not having work at all. I’ve been in that situation too many times.

Pretty low key, like most weekends for the last few months. We did take a drive down to Canyon Lake just to get out of the house. A few hours on the road, a walk across the dam in blazing heat. Otherwise, we’re spending time cleaning out my wife’s closet, which has 18 years of accumulated stuff in it.

That’s nice - I spent it cleaning out our basement. Got a dumpster delivered on Friday and spend the weekend working on filling it. Surprised and dissapointed in myself the number of things that we moved into the basement 10 years ago and haven’t touched since. I’m sore, but still have more to do...

That’s the thing. So much stuff we haven’t seen since we moved here 18 years ago, so much stuff that got moved from the apartment to here in boxes that were never opened once we got here.

I’m not a stickler for the rules. Pat yourself on the back for recognizing it.

That is the new normal for a large portion of the workforce.
