[NSRCA-dist8] Soft Mount

[Tim]

Merry Christmas to all.     I took some extra time off to extend the  
usual Boeing Christmas vacation period so I could work on airplanes,  
but it is so blasted cold, I can't work in my shop in the garage  
without getting hypothermia.   I swear if I cut my self with an Xacto  
#11 blade right now, I wouldn't loose a drop of blood because it would  
freeze up before it started flowing !!   I'm working on two Option  
120's right now (one for me and one for my brother) and I also have a  
Divo bipe foamie with all needed electronic goodies, just not yet  
assembled.     I'm looking forward to next season.   I'm gunning to  
climb out of the cellar of the Sportsman class and with a good  
airplane and alot more practice hopefully my 2009 goal will be  
achieved.   Somebody in Seattle has to finish better than last place  
in something (i.e. Husky football team, Seattle Mariners, Seattle  
Seahawks, former Seattle Sonics).
