Check out this website called https://www.Householdhacker.com They show you how to make an iPOD charger with an onion and gatorade. You can also power a TV with a AAA battery! I'm going to save the world with a thimble, a piece of floss and an egg. Jeff

This site is awesome....time for some happy trees and grandfather mountains! Bob Ross episodes streamed

I've been earning some part time money (received via a W-9) and I really do not want to pay a lot of tax on it. While I know my current arrangement won't last for too long, I figured more opportunities will eventually surface and, even if not, I might as well incorporate the family name so I can deduct business expenses for the foreseeable future. 1) I would love to hire a CPA to set it all up. Any good advice for pitfalls, expectations? What can I expect cost wise? 2) Since I seem to move every 1.2 years, does it matter what state I use to register the name? Can I just choose one to avoid state income tax? Do I have to have an address there. 3) Sole Proprietor, L…

Want in my bar at home! A new way to "pour" beer.

With the presidential debate going on tonight and the approaching elections, the following questioned popped in my head: does a specific political party have more effect over the other on the Air Force? I.e. Budgets, Leadership, etc.

As a counter to the Simone Biles quitting discussion, I propose this thread where we can celebrate triumphs free of any political side discussions. Just watched swimmers Caleb Dressel and Bobby Finke absolutely kill it in the 50 free and 1500 free respectively. What a couple of absolute champions! Finke came back from third place to absolutely dominate the last 50 meters of the 1500 which is a truly grueling event. ‘Murcia! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

I have been tasked with putting together my squadron's next First Friday. I have neither attended one nor know much about them. Looking to see what some of you have done in the past, or thought was fun and memorable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For any and all you Jayhawks lurking out there I got some Shit Hot Morale/Pen Pocket Patches made: They are going for $3 for one or $5 for 2/both to offset the costs of having to buy 100 of each and supplement my guard Lt income. Feel free to email me at flyinjahawk@gmail.com or PM me and we can exhange contact info. Holler

Hey Folks, I do some human factors and safety systems consulting on the side. A portion of my presentations consist of power point and I'm alway looking to enhance those. There are two areas of customers I've always talked to about how the military does Lims and EP's, those being General Aviation folks (I do these for free at FIRC's and for any GA group that requests my help.) and my single-pilot CRM course. (The primary audience here is light jet owners who are new to turbine operations.) At any rate, describing how standup works is nowhere near as effective as actually seeing it. So, here's what I was wondering: If any of you folks might happen to have some rec…

https://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100211/ap_on_re_us/us_obit_wilson Certainly an interesting character, and who knows where we'd be with Afghanistan if more people listened to his point of view after the Soviet-Afghan War. RIP.

Didn't see a subforum for introductions, so I figured I'd post a brief one here. Enlisted dude, not a flyer, but heard about this place so I figured I'd swing by and check it out myself. Come to think of it, this is a pretty crappy thread to start. Sorry in advance.

We go there pretty regularly. Anyone see OEF-P becoming a deployment? P.S. There are some great acronyms in this article. Enjoy.

"The most curious thing about our four defeats in Fourth Generation WarLebanon, Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistanis the utter silence in the American officer corps. Defeat in Vietnam bred a generation of military reformers, men such as Col. John Boyd USAF, Col. Mike Wyly USMC, and Col. Huba Wass de Czege USA, each of whom led a major effort to reorient his service. Today, the landscape is barren. Not a military voice is heard calling for thoughtful, substantive change. Just more money, please." https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/an-officer-corps-that-cant-score/

As a former C-130 driver, SEFE and line puke, I had more than my share of fun in the course of 27 years on countless rotations, Panama, Europe, Africa, Southwest Asia, Desert Shield & Storm and Red Flag, etc. in the A's, B's and E's. But in August of 1993 it all came to an end when I retired. Now all there was to do was flying widebodies (flight attendants) between major population centers around the world. I thought I would replace at least some of that former excitement and so I became active in the local aerobatic club and, after a few years, began teaching basic aerobatics and emergency recovery training mostly to pilots who have never been on their back in a…

I could of sworn we had a thread solely dedicated to naming planes in them, but no luck. This popped up on a website I frequent, and I was wondering if anyone knows what it is, the confusing this is it looks like it has wings on it.

I have been following the "poser" thread. While it has been interesting, I thought I would try and balance that with the story of a real hero: Mike Monsoor, Navy Seal, MOH, Silver Star, Bronze Star, purple heart. https://www.navyseals.com/michael-monsoor Excerpt from the citation: Navy Narrative: “On 29 September (2006), Monsoor was part of a sniper overwatch security position in eastern Ramadi, Iraq, with three other SEALs and eight Iraqi soldiers. They were providing overwatch security while joint and combined forces were conducting missions in the area. Ramadi had been a violent and intense area for a very strong and aggressive insurgency for some time. All…

Couldn't find this yet...pretty sad really that some have no more respect than this for you guys that serve and risk it all. https://www.kplr11.com/videobeta/watch/?watch=b5f41dee-1451-409d-a603-7aebd41e2c15&src=front

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/government-considering-purchase-of-military-jet-aircraft-1.4289801 So they are thinking, probably not gonna buy methinks but if they do decide to acquire Air Defense and Sovereignty capability and you were the decision maker, what air platform and air defense systems would you choose? As Ireland is not a member of NATO, there is no reason (technical compatibility, treaty or politically) they could not buy from Russia, China, whoever... JF-17 with Israeli or Italian avionics & weapons?

Jokes aside, it appears they still build tough ass airplanes.
