A YB-49, wow! We once had a B-36 fly over our farm at an altitude that =

Well since we've strayed this far off the thread I'll just chime in a =
say how much I've always admired weirdo aeronautical designs. When my =
dear old Dad was station at Carswell AFB we lived in a housing =
development just across Lake Worth. I remember seeing the YB-49 taking =
off once - came right over our house.=20
Almost as thrilling as seeing the Muntz TV salesman bring one of his =
sets into our living room and then proceed to slap and kick the shit out =
of it while it played on merrily, Uncle Miltie smiling through the =
abuse.
Me and my brother George had never seen anything like that, not ever =
before. I don't think my Dad bought the Muntz though.
I always wanted a Dumont. It was in black and white, like the rest of =
the world, but had a bluish fluorescent collar around the picture tube =
which lit up while you watched Red Skelton being supremely unfunny =
(always broke up laughing at his own crap for one thing, unlike Spike =
Jones: the funnier he got the more disgusted he looked).
Far enough off the thread yet?
