  1. Time to get your "mouse" swagger on! http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=real-males-eat-yogurt
  2. He's barely got time to deal with the Trayvon issue. He's out trying to get justice and reparations for the Duke lacrosse players and continue to speak out against Marion Barry in DC.
  3. Yes, I watched some Twin Peaks. I wasn't a big fan. I found that during a slow day at work and read too much of "Wired" online.
  4. Don't know what to say other than WTF? (And it has boobs) http://www.youtube.c...player_embedded *fixed horrible english
  5. From the article: http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012...bomber-gamble/
  6. Good thing your not in the Navy. They would be giving you training on how to breathe water.
  7. From the 506th and "Band of Brothers" http://www.marcusbrotherton.com/
  8. Wow! He must be the Navy's equivalent of Jill Metzger.
  9. Wow! Maybe next she is going to fart rectal cancer?
  10. Vietnam surgery removes tumor twice man's weight "The excised tumor weighed 180 pounds (82 kilos), according to the hospital, a bit less than the 200 pounds (90 kilos) estimated before surgery." There is picture from before the surgery. http://www.cnn.com/2....html?hpt=hp_t3
  11. This is one that pisses me off. I am former Air Force, my daughter is an Army medic and I raise and donate money to send supplies care packages to troops; this guy needs to spend some time in some front line desert $hithole. Between the crap at Penn State and guys like this, what 7uck is happening in this country! http://boston.barstoolsports.com/featured/does-this-look-like-the-face-of-a-suffolk-law-professor-who-hates-our-troops-and-thinks-soldiers-are-murderers-who-are-unworthy-of-our-support/
  12. This Penn State thing is getting worse. I was listening to the local sports-talk station this morning on my way to work and they were interviewing Mark Madden, who wrote a story about this 7 months ago that was also ignored, and he had this to say: http://www.weei.com/sports/boston/this-just-in/21153916/madden-sandusky-may-have-pimped-out-kids
  13. Wow. Good story. To the Seals and the other operators that made that happen: :beer:
  14. Nukes. No one could tell if did or not. It already looks like "Mad Max" over there.
  15. I think the picture of him in "uniform" sucking his thumb might be a give-away.
  16. Excellent article. Thanks.
  17. Looks like there was a prop strike also. You can see some of the ground get chopped up under the prop. Do they have to tear that engine down like a spam-can for a prop strike?

    RIP Maj Winters

    A great man, warrior and leader. RIP. I like these quotes from the article:
  19. If your are just looking for a backup get one of the Garmin units. I have a Garmin Aera 500 that works great. You can buy nav databases for anywhere in the world. Plus when you are on the ground it has automotive mode.
  20. Just saw this on CNN" "Punkd, Baghdad style" http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/meast/09/09/iraq.candid.camera/index.html?iref=allsearch
  21. During the fall of Saigon, one Vietnamese family in a helicopter, low on fuel, gets rescued by a US Navy ship, the USS Kirk. The Kirk goes on to rescue 20,000-30,000 (estimated) refugees. All of this was forgotten until recently. I can't imagine being so desperate that I would drop my children out of a flying helicopter. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129554870
  22. Not a pilot story but still a good one. Back when I was at Chanute (this will give you an idea of how long ago this is.) A friend of mine was a Master Sgt and was cross training to missiles at Chanute. The AF was also training Israelis, Saudis and Iraqis at Chanute. They had to be kept separate to keep them from killing each other. Good times. Separate dorms, classrooms, and meal times. Well the AF felt it was ok to mix theses guys in with US guys in the dorms. My buddy had an Iraqi dude as a roommate. My buddy was always complaining about the lack of showers and abundance of cologne his Iraqi roommate used. My friend complained directly to the guy about the smell and the reply was "that this is a good, manly smell." Anyway, my buddy decided that it would be good to take his roommate out on the town one night. We were planning on going over to Champagne and hit some college bars over there. The Iraqi dude jumps in the front seat and off we go. My buddy turns on his CB radio and starts asking about speed traps on the way. Iraqi dude starts looking nervous. So I ask him if he is ok? The guy replies "In my country only secret police have radios in private cars." My buddy with missing a beat and completely straight faced "Yeah its the same here too." I thought the Iraqi dude was going to mess himself right then and there. Next day, Iraqi dude moves out. Word was no other FN would move in with him.
