This morning I had the pleasure to have a fairly free road and could go full throttle while 'One Shot at Glory' was playing.

This Sunday night I had the pleasure of having a completely free road with "Hell bent for leather" full volume, with my wife headbanging on the passenger seat. She never noticed the speedometer...

Next I will ask for some shooting exercises. Hell Patrol would be the fitting soundtrack then.

For shooting I prefer "The End" by The Doors*. I'm a bit melodramatic, I know.
*Well, "The End is Near" byt Primal Fear, "Test your metal" by Unleash the archers and "Before the hangsman's noose" by DevilDriver may go

Guess what. I already have a license free version of the Ride of the Valkyries for my video of the maiden flight with my Huey - once it finally gets done. Currently I'm designing and 3D printing the weapons[^].

Are you trying to deploy a fighter drone? I was of the idea to try to develop an automated system to detect incoming drones, automatically fly one (at first) drone to intercept it and shoot it down.
I was thinking of doing it with a CO2 capsule, the ones used for softair guns, and a tube filled of ceramic or metallic 6mm bb shots. It's not by chance that I gifted my dad his first drone... *innocently whistling*.

No, just a flying 1:16 scale replica of this Huey[^]

That's nothing, I was stuck in Zeeland for half my life 
|
|
|
|
|
Had one of the best meals of my life in Zeeland, but yeah, it is pretty backwards.
|
|
|
|

Then we agree, I think Zeeland is nice for pensionado's, but not if you are looking for a job in the IT sector.

Has anyone else noticed that northerners don't start emails with any kind of salutation or greeting, they just launch straight into the subject matter?
Following on from what Griff said about politeness in the earlier email thread, I used to feel this was rude, but in fact I have come round to seeing it as just efficient.

Still better than kids though: no words, just a photo or video. Now that's a waste of bandwidth.

I do include greetings at least in the first exchanges of a mail thread. If the thread is highly technical and fast paced (i.e "Try X" "It behaves in this way", "Then it could be configuration Y", "Now it behaves that way", "OK I send you a patch" ...) then I drop the salutations after a couple of e-mails, and only if my interlocutor does the same otherwise I keep being as polite as I can be.

Yeah, that kind of works, start the day of with a 'Morning xxx' and then just chat after that.

Morning and the three kisses?

Only in France.

An e-mail is, IMO, the online equivalent of a memo. Do memos typically contain salutations?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

In a mail directed to a close group, like coworkers, an e-mail is a memo and salutations are unnecessary.
I wouldn't ever dream of writing to a person external to the company, or from another branch or office with whom I have very little contacts, without proper education in place.

Agreed. When sent outside the company/local office, an e-mail is the equivalent of a letter and should have salutations etc.
