  1. Limit Federal Government. We have individual states for a reason. Quit making laws that affect the entire country and let the states have more control. The system is already in place. Use it. We dont need as much Federal government. They have way too much power. You dont like abortion? Dont live in CA. You dont like the religious right? Dont live in Alabama. Dont like overreaching government? Tell the Federal government to fuck off. We have legal cannabis in a lot of states and yet it is Federally illegal. We have 50 states for reason. We don't all like the same shit. I don't want some terd from NYC telling me how to live in Cypress CA. I already have enough terds here to deal with. Edit 2: Turd is the correct spelling. Burt Reynolds is not a pussy!
  2. You know, I've personally flown over 194 missions and I was shot down on every one. Come to think of it, I’ve never landed an airplane in my life.
  3. I think that was the single greatest quote in an aviation movie, or maybe any movie, EVER!
  4. Remember how fantastic this son of a bitch was as an Admiral and then President?! Man, it seemed a lot funnier in the Hot Shots movies than playing out, in real life, today. “It seems like only yesterday I was strafing so many of your homes; now I’m begging you to stop making such good cars.” -President Benson In an address to the Japanese Prime Minister.
  5. What half the country thinks is right, the other half thinks is evil, and vice versa. But don’t worry, our country can be “fixed”.
  6. MEPS is a complete sham. Laziest POS doctors I’ve ever seen. They don’t care about getting it right. Just collecting a paycheck. You can win this, just keep fighting it. Don’t give up.
  7. To continue Pawnman’s example… ”OK, but have you ever been depressed” ”I’ve had down days with disappointments like everyone else.” ”Yes I understand, but yes or no, have you been depressed?” ”No, I have not” The medical world defines it as a mood disorder, so if you say you’ve had it, you’re saying you’ve had a disorder. Do you think you’ve ever had a disorder, or just a few bad days/weeks? Normal people know there’s a difference, docs don’t for the most part. You have to understand your definition of “depression” is not the same as the psych’s definition of “depression.” You think “depression” innocuously means, “yeah I was down about a break up for a few weeks and moved on.” The psych sees it as, “I almost ended my life and was mentally unstable for a period of time.” This sounds like a ton of bullshit. Sorry you’re dealing with it. Get ready for them to ask about what kind of childhood you had, how do you feel about animals, etc.
  8. Not in Curtis LeMay’s SAC: Fuel dump? Best I can do is speed brakes and gear down.
  9. I cant watch the President speak without wondering if he's still able function without a pair of depends. WWIII is bad enough. We'll have this dude at the wheel. God help us.
  10. She is not. Salt of the earth and a wonderful pilot/instructor. True, luckily no one was hurt. I doubt the FAA comes after her, especially with her contrition and this being a first offense.
  11. Answer exactly the questions asked, don't volunteer additional information. "Have you ever been depressed?" "I have never been diagnosed with depression."
