Blasphemy! How can I be expected to pass any sort of training course without the dirty purples? There's a website for this sort of information: ETCA.

Gen Welsh - USAF Chief of Staff
Gen Welsh is an amazing people person. He could meet you once and learn a few things about your life and family...and then months or years later meet you again and ask about your spouse, kids, and dog by name.

No, but I'm sure they've just lost that lovin' feeling!- Short tour info
If you are stationed OCONUS and you go TDY anywhere else OCONUS, you continue to gain days. You do not gain days if you are "home" at your OCONUS base.- Space A(vailable) Info
Why would you ask A3T? It's not a training issue...- Safety School (Albuquerque, AMIC)
AMIC is all the investigation stuff. FSO is the investigation and safety program management course. I never considered going to the crash lab fun. The last people to fly most of those wrecks died in them.- Gen Welsh - USAF Chief of Staff
Reading his latest letter made me want to stand on my desk and give a barbaric "yowlp!"- Taxes, the Deficit/Debt, and the Fiscal Cliff
The 2% less I will be taking home each month pisses me off. Taxes went up on everyone earning less than $113,000/yr today, despite your "great deal."- WTF? (**NSFW**)

Infowars (truly reliable news source, I know) said it was NATO-backed rebel forces that used chemical weapons on Assad's forces/on the people and blamed it on Assad.- Was the LOE/AF77 replaced?

I guess no one saw this giant image at the top of e-publishing...- VA Loans
I just closed yesterday on a VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan (IRRRL), AKA the VA "streamline," with Dave Devine and NBofKC. I would recommend Dave and NBofKC to anyone who is looking to refinance. We dropped to a 3.25% 30-yr fixed VA loan from a higher rate 30-yr loan. Dave secured a $4,200 lender credit with estimated fees of $3,070. Ultimately, the fees wound up ~$3377 (limited by the "may increase 10%" part of the HUD-1). Thus, the lender credit paid for all out-of-pocket fees and $823 of our 1Q property taxes. We elected to pay the remaining ~$680 in 1Q property tax and ~$800 in initial escrow out of pocket. We will be getting ~$1,470 back from our current escrow account. Also, we will be skipping the January 2013 payment (~$1,750 PITI). This brings our total cash outlay to -$1,740 out of pocket...also known as $1,740 that will stay in our bank account while we enjoy a monthly reduction of approximately $230 in interest charges. Overall, it was a great experience.- The dry island of Japan

That checks with my -$7. Thank Jebus for the grandfather clause. That's what you get for having dependents. The w/o dependents rate went up 5.2%.- C-17 Pilot Charged in Training Jump Death
My FSO course was several years ago now, but the way I was trained is pretty simple: - Ground/weapons safety investigators rarely extend privilege, unless they are certain the witness will not provide a statement without privilege. - Flight safety investigators routinely extend privilege to aircrew, but they normally do no extend privilege to ground personnel unless the investigator deems it necessary. I had heard rumblings earlier this year that the course has changed more to what disgruntledemployee mentions. - U-2 Dragonlady info
