Deutschland?

Wie gehts? Bist du Deutsche odor Amerikaner ins Deutschland?

Tschuess,
Tom

Servus Tom!!!

Alles Senkrecht!

Bin Ami, aber schon 20 jahre (insgesamt) hier. Ich bin eine Zivilangestellte der US Streitkraefte.

Und Du? Deutsch oder Ami?

Now, for the rest of you a literal translation (makes very little sense).

Servant Tom!!! (Servus is Latin for servant or slave, it is also a common greeting in Southern Germany)

Everything vertical! (Means that I am still standing and above dirt.)

Am American, but already 20 years (all together) here. I am a Department of Defense Civilian.

And you? German or American?

Thanks??? :ummm:

Ich bin Amerikaner. Meine fater ist Deutsche. Ihns war in dem Krieg bei Luftwaffe, JG 26.

Entshuldigung fur meine buchstabieren. Es ist nicht so gut.

Ubrigens: Ich bin 40 jahre alten.

Tschuess,
Tom

Translation:

I'm an American. My father is German. He was in the war in the Luftwaffe JG26.

I'm sorry for my spelling. It is not very good.

By the way: I'm 40 years old.

See ya,
Tom

One small point on Survus.

It's like we sign letters in official occupations. For instance, "Your obediant Servant" or "At your service". It's a very polite thing meant to show the willingness to help and/or be of aide. It is NOT an announcement of inferiority.

Regards,
Tom

Tom,

My German writing is FAR from perfect. When my 8 and 10 year old children correct me I know that I am bad.

Excellent clarification on Servus BTW. Better than mine

Now for some Bavarian:

Mach's Guat, Ser's!

:biglaugh::biglaugh:

It's only 10:30 pm. I am a big boy and Mom lets me stay up as late as I want. Even on School nights!

Darmendausgang. LOL!

 

[Tom_Owens]

I'm not worth spit after 7:30 pm. I'm in bed by no later than 8:30 pm.

In my defense, I'm up at 4:00 am. So there's that.

Regards,
Tom

I bet Toms '07 has more miles than my poor K6

Maybe. I've got 4700 on mine. I did miss out on the last 4 months of the year last year after neck surgery though.

Thanks for the welcome, guys. I appreciate it. For you VMOA guys, sorry. It came down to my wife or the organization. That's a no-brainer.

Cool thing is though, I can still meet up and everything with you folks except for Brad.

Again, it has NOTHING at all to do with VMOA. It never did. I miss the VMOA boards a lot, and the really crappy thing is that I had so much planned. It's just my wife, much as I hate it.

In the end, however, she is the one that walked into the shop and cut an $11,000 dollar check for my Max, so what she says, goes.

All the best,
Tom

Hey Tom... Don't sweat the VMOA stuff. It's your life and your family that is more important.
Like they say... If momma aint happy... Then Nobody's happy...

Glad to have you here. The VMF board is just as good as the other boards, and in many ways a lot better.
So sit back and enjoy!

I Hope someone took the time to inform you what NSFW means? If not... let me.
Not Safe For Work...
Generally, when you see "NSFW" on a thread it means caution contents may be... uum... sexually racy in nature.

That's a good point... and welcome Tom! :cheers:
Just avoid the Burn Out Pit forum and you will be OK. All NSFW posts are there (or are moved there by me or the Moderators).

Hey Tom!

Just spotted this thread; been out to training class all last week.

Welcome aboard, I'm glad to see the Vmax world hasn't lost you. You'd be missed.

To those of you who don't know Tom, he has a lot to offer in technical knowledge.

Later,

Rusty Mcneil
