Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !
Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, and HAVOC !

Bill,
You were pretty close. I looked up the definition:

PALOOZA

an all-out crazy party; partying at one place with a ton of people like there is no tomorrow

You just needed more people! Crazy people!

Road trip anyone?!

Yeah, I'm still looking for scans of the AVI large scale catalog. Some of those vaporware designs looked pretty cool. On par with the Centuri Super Kits.

You mean these? The AVI UFO model rocket proposals are found in the AVI Astroport 1975 newsprint Aerospace Products for Research, Education, Recreation edition.

You’re an INFLUENCER!

I hope the fame and fortune doesn’t mean you’ll forget us!
