I've mentored a LOT of people through the years...some still on this very forum. The video below is a GREAT story about how one interaction can change someone's life and getting to see it come full circle Screw all the BS politics discussions...chase your dreams, work hard and be a good dude/dudette.

Couldn’t find an NCAA brackets topic. If one exists, feel free to delete this. Who do you think wins it all in 2025? I’ve got the FL Gators taking it this year.

Her backup B-29, Huge Cock, will be rightfully added to the pictures in the halls of the Pentagon soon... War heroes and military firsts are among 26,000 images flagged for removal in Pentagon's DEI purge | AP News SMH.

Several arrivals into DCA reported false TA/RA notifications.

"If in 10 years, all American troops stationed in Europe for national defense purposes have not been returned to the United States, then this whole project will have failed.” Eisenhower in 1951 I saw this morning refusal to refuel USN ships from a Norwegian company https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/03/01/mike-lee-calls-for-exit-from-nato-after-norwegian-fuel-company-stops-refueling-u-s-military-ships/ I’m not sure the US doesn’t have interests in Europe or should not have some military commitments/alliances but perhaps NATO really has out lived its purpose, perhaps a more focused alliance of the US and perhaps the UK to the nations of Eastern Eu…

Great video by Juan Brown of the Blancolireo channel of the shoot down of the E190. There was quite a lot of confusion prior to the incident with the Russian ATC controllers not understanding that the GPS jamming wasn’t allowing the crew to accept RNP and RNAV approaches.

Curious where everyone trains/shoots. Lucky enough to be in an area with lots of Forest service land and can pretty much have no limits on what type of shooting/drills I can do.

Was absolutely screaming in. Got up to 1600 feet on departure then -11000 fpm on last adsb hit.

Come on #4….get in position…..old guy here, get off my lawn!

Hundreds, maybe thousands, of these videos around. My ex had a case dropped when dash cam showed a completely different story than the cop wrote up. I don't necessarily believe in "defunding" cops but I do believe in reform.

And somehow this tinfoil hat forum has nothing to say about it?

Stunning this place is still open. And that clown is still CEO https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/us-watchdog-orders-usaa-bank-to-rectify-practices/ar-AA1wbxxf?

hello, im in AFE trying to be a fighter pilot for my unit, and im looking to get the pilots upstairs some alcohol for the Hollidays. I thought it would be a good way of getting my name out there more to the pilots I haven't met yet and just to be a team player. this question is more towards fighter pilots, but if you drink a lot and know the goodies, what kind of drinks, ie. whiskey, vodka, Jeremiah weed, etc. was the best you've had? I want to buy something that they would enjoy, but not spend too much mula. I appreciate your guys' help. happy Hollidays!

I made a program a while back to help my wife and I pick names for our kids. I decided I wanted to see just how good the newest AI models were at coding (spoiler alert, incredibly good) and reconstruct the program with all the bells and whistles and a unified login system. I'm probably about a day or so away from beta testing, so if anyone would like to use the program, just send me a PM and I'll get you and your spouse set up with accounts. The Baby Namer 9000 allows two parents to independently rate names from the social security database then compare their ratings to instantly see what names were favored by both. You can also see statistics goi…

Thanks to all who have spent the holiday in a far away place.

A flight carrying the Auburn basketball team had to declare an emergency after a fight between player broke out while airborne. One player was "bloodied." The initial report was "roughhousing got out of hand." The message forums are hilarious saying it was the result of a three way love triangle where two of the players were hooking up with each and one got caught with another dude. Whatever happened mist have been quite a brawl to declare an IFE and ask for police to be waiting when you land.

I really do think a lot of people will envision this meme with just about every pick. Post your suggestions, post your thoughts of his picks. For fun, who will he pick for Sec Def, Sec State, FBI. Go!

Her story is corroborated better than Blasey Ford https://www.kwwl.com/news/crime-courts/former-sports-illustrated-swimsuit-model-says-trump-groped-her-to-show-off-for-jeffrey-epstein/article_0b4642ff-b6da-5270-b743-2ae0ad0c7547.html

We just finished our final PCS and the movers absolutely destroyed our stuff. Horrendous packing that the QA folks came our and submitted letters of warning to the company. Incomplete inventory.. Used toilet brushed packed with clothing. Lost items... absolute clown show. We issued a claim and in the past have had no issues getting things fixed or replaced. This time seems different. They denied a number of items claiming "damage not in transit" when the item was noted as no previous damage and now it's scratched to F. Other items where a shelf that the driver admitted to completely destroying and testing pics of how bad he F'd it up. The company denied that as we…

Stealth Bombers attacking terrorists in the desert Some of the targets were deeply buried, but wow...

I am a total space geek and have been reading up on the upcoming mission back to the moon. There is some SERIOUS turmoil in the community over the decisions that have been made. The orbital mechanics are VERY different and is many ways, more risky mainly because the ARTEMIS does not have enough thrust (Delta V), to conduct the mission the same way as Apollo using a low lunar orbit. Instead, they will use a near-rectilinear halo orbit (NHRO), which means there will be long periods that if something happens on the surface, they will have to wait for the return vehicle to come back in range. Apollo Flight Plans ARTEMIS Flight Plans N…

I hear it is tomorrow, 26 Sept, leaving Travis.
