Hee, hee, hee, I founded Wind and Water, Inc to make white water frames for rafts and built a sailing frame prototype. It was sloop rigged and used lee boards. I only built the one because once I started to heel, the bottom of the raft increases the sail area at exactly the wrong moment.
that wasnt available when I went to school.
How about Trumpets and Clarinets?

Lets break it down step by step shall we.

The discriminant (e² – f(t)) was negative (less than zero)

Two Real solutions result from the form (f – s)² = d when d > 0 (t is positive)

Solve (x – 5)² = 25.
Taking root of both sides, we get x – 5 = ! 5,
so x = 5 ! 5 which makes x = 10 or x = 0

Everyone with me so far?

It's about one year - since I was diagnosed to have a leaking heart valve - and finally my phone rings - and they want to see me at St Thomas's hospital - up near to Westminster - Central London - its not for the open heart surgery just yet - they just want to do an ECG - and other tests it seems - pre-surgery - but it's a start - because St Thomas's will be the hospital where I will receive this surgery - and has a world renowned cardiology department apparently - 6th February is my appointment -

This is all new to me having a major internal surgery - 1st time virgin - so I'll try and enjoy it as a new experience - and once it's fixed and healed - I should be back to my old self - and be able to train a little harder again -
* here is a link to a small video about my condition -

Since I don't have any other co-morbidities - and am generally fit and well - this operation should be routine and relatively easy to recover from - I'm just wondering when it might be scheduled -

With me... Mebbe.... Hahaha

Sloops-of-War... was the answer to the last question I was asked when I was qualifying as an Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist... Will never forget it... Much like I'll never forget that the firemain system on my first ship was comprised of 6 inch horizontal loops with 8 inch vertical risers... Or that the RHiB boat is lowered from the main deck via a single-arm, gravity davit....

So much useless info in this noggin sometimes. Was blessed with an interesting memory... But I reckon that's partially due to TBI.

Anyway... Man... I better drink some coffee and shaddap. Enough Hash for now.
Saw an opportunity ,I waited ,no one took the shot , so I shot.
