Default "Spank the sky!" (TM)

What gives with this, Jay? You planning on taking Goemmer Designs public or something?
You ol' sky-spanker you.

That *is* a great tag-line, I have to say.

Thumbs up "'Scuse me, while I *spank* the sky..."

Bill and John,

It's mostly a joke, as is about half of the stuff I say. (Besides the news, I mean. ) Actually, it just kind of came out of the excitement of flying rockets for the first time in almost 2 years, *and* being able to do that on the site of where my dad's farm was that he sold 17 years ago.

That's why the phrase "spanking the sky" first showed up in my Sirius Interrogator review on EMRR.


As far as "going public," at this point I'm considering Carl as my main "official" conduit (of course, that means FINISHING THE INSTRUCTION SHEET!), with occasional exorcisms handled by Craig.

And I have two responses:

(Really bad French accent) "But of *course.*"

(Phil Hartman voice) "*Yes.* Yes, it *is.*"


Thanks, as always, for asking!


Cheers,

--Jay
