OK. I've never installed a T&G ceiling, but I am doing one as part of my project of finishing a portion of my basement for a man cave.
Dumb question:

I have a 18ga brad nailer that will shoot 1 1/4" nails. I plan to blind nail the toungues using 5/8 pine T&G. So using my Jethro Bodine cipherin, I reckon I would be shooting thru about 3/8" of T&G and 7/8" of ceiling joist. If I shoot 2 nails at each joist in a "V" pattern, is that good enough or do I need to get another nailgun and shoot longer 16ga nails?

Code is 18 ga crown stapler 45deg through the toung.
A 16 ga or 15 ga finish nailer will do fine I would not recommend the brad nailer.(use 2in whatever you decide)
Don’t need the v pattern unless you just want to. The nail through the toung holds up the next groove just fine.
I’ll send a picture of the ceiling in the she shed when I get home.

What kind of dog is that? The one pooping on your planter?

The only kind I’ve never owned.
Schnauzer I believe.
That no pooping sign is completely ineffective

The dog Gabby in front of the sign is a Blue Heeler.
Also known as my shadow. She goes everywhere I go.

blue healers are such good dogs. Gabby sure is pretty

Scraping old texture from the garage ceiling. 1/4 of the way thru. Dayum Son! Tough on the shoulders.
