Message So I am up here in Alaska visiting my mom before I go to Korea for the next year. She planned this fishing trip down to Valdez for Salmon and Halibut. We caught tons of fish and had a great time. Each year in Valdez they have a "Fishing Derby" with a money prize to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd heaviest fish in each category. We bought Derby tickets the first day that we went out for Salmon, but didn't get even close to the record Salmon. The next day we decided to go out for Halibut in the morning and fish for salmon that afternoon. I didn't even think about buying another derby ticket for halibut ($6). Within 5 minutes of arriving at the spot we were going to fish I caught this thing.

It weighed 60 pounds. I didn't think anything of it, the winners are usually much bigger. However, they do it on a range system where I was fishing, and the range for the week I was fishing was 60-80#. Turns out if I had bought that stupid $6 ticket I would have won $10K...
Yeah I know, it wasn't the powerball but it sure could have paid for a lot of cool things for the Z.

There is my meaningless story, just thought I would share it.

My other ride is a CH-47D "Chinook" helicopter, with 2 engines pushing 3750 HP each this thing can haul, a few Z's that is. I can fit 2 Z's inside and sling load another 3 outside. To bad the Army will never let me try it.
