Glad I was wrong. Masshole?

Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate
Update: there are multiple dudes over at APC that have done the 737 type with the post 9/11 GI Bill. It is taking 10 months of eligibility, not 1. Unless you or your chitlins aren't going to use the money for college, it isn't worth it.

Super Bowl 46
I hate the Patriots Hate. But, I think they're gonna win big---by 2 touchdowns at least. Posting this here so hopefully I can eat my words as Eli hoists up his 2nd Lombardi.

I think they TOTALLY get it (Suicides)
We had a 30 minute brief, CC call, and a pilot meeting. Total of about 2 hours. Then we went and watched Red Tails, and then played softball. A good day, but I agree with Napoleon. It was angering to me that they're focusing on the suicides and not the cause behind them (or at least a major contributing factor): our broken Air Force. They (senior leadership) just don't get it.

Future Raptor Pilot
My next door neighbor was a Flight Commander in Tweets when I started. His advice was to write something so generic and vague that they'd forget you the moment they out your bio down.

Squadron Holiday "Party" Ideas
Do this: https://www.luke.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123279543 Then have a party that night with all the donated beer & Jack you can drink, Tilted Kilt & Monster girls, some damn good BBQ, crud, Dick Jonas, and Dos Gringos.

Off-station refueling, including in-flight
That might be one of Rainman's best posts of all time.

Anyone else want to punch Alec Baldwin in his fat liberal yap
I still think he's a douchebag, but his skit on SNL tonight (about the AA incident) was pretty damn funny. Don't see a link on youtube yet.

Remains of 274 US troops dumped in landfill

'Bama vs LSU, or LSU vs OSU?

'Bama vs LSU, or LSU vs OSU?
M2...I know you're a SEC/Gator lover, but you gotta back this up. This is NOT what happened, and people that vote for 'Bama are only looking at the 1 loss (like K-State Poke brought up). Regardless of what the BCS decides tonight....screw the BCS. Easy way to solve this: Stanford vs LSU in the Sugar Bowl, OSU vs 'Bama in the Fiesta Bowl, and the winners play in the title game a week later. Done. Screw you, BCS.

Buying a house
We just closed 2 weeks ago...my loan officer asked me for mine. When I told her I didn't have it, she took care of it and got it for me. No idea how.....

DOS GRINGOS Live cd FINALLY Here!
Saw DG here at Luke last night. They mentioned a 4th CD and played 3 new songs off of it (all 3 were great....one about the Thunderbirds, one about FAIPs, and one about a "special kind of loving" for the wife). No mention as to it actually being released anytime soon though.

ADP (Airman Development Plan)
Straight off the Viper porch webpage, it lists examples like Vetter's on what a good comments section looks like. They (at least F-16s) want quals.

USAA
Any updates on using USAA for a mortgage or homeowner's insurance in the past few months? If their rates weren't the best, who was better?
