Blue smoke and good compression

["R. Ashford Little II" <ralittle2@mindspring.com>]

Those two things don't usually go together so I was wondering if there
is a "typical" reason why an engine with good and consistent compression
(~145) would blow blue smoke at the upper rpms?  It would seem to me
that if I've got a bad oil ring, in #2 cylinder, then I would have other
issues as well that would lead to bad compression.  But that's not the
case.  Makes me wonder what else I'll find when the engine comes apart.
