  1. I'm surprised they didn't blame this on lack of flight discipline. I can't believe they didn't emphasize the lack of airflow through his mask a little more. Just try exhaling and then not breathing for 30 seconds while sitting at your desk. It's tough enough when you're at 0' AGL, under no stress and know that you can breath in at any time.
  2. They weren't suspended for Tebowing. They were suspended for a coordinated blocking of the hallways after they were warned not to do it. It's no different if they blocked the hallways via planking, owling, tebowing or occupying wall street.
  3. Yeah, but if you figure the marriage as a sunk cost. The opportunistic value of getting married before the changes........ Oh god, why did that worthless TUIU class just come back into my head.
  4. Awesome. An extra $102 a month will be handy.
  5. Absolutely dispicable. How did none of those people say, "this is a fucking stupid idea" and stop this picture? I see 16 RIF volunteers.
  6. Exactly how is a barrel roll a 1-G maneuver? Takeoffs, landings and level turns are more than 1-G maneuvers. You can do a barrel "dive" at 1-G but not a barrel roll.
  7. When they were at Laughlin, the power went out and they just continuted acapella. Don't put everyone who 'volunteered' to attend through that pain.
  8. Sounds like he probably dropped his pencil and got into an unusual attitude to me.
  9. FIFY. Would it really have cost much more to bury the ashes (even all mixed in one container) at Arlington?
  10. It looks like somebody mounted that engine wrong.
  11. But what would happen if we bolted treadmills to the wingtips?
  12. Smashing flourescent tubes against your face? I know of a few Indians (with a dot) that are going to get mercury poisoning.
  13. Sure, flying fingertip in a C-17 doesn't add stress to the mission.
  14. That was right after I went. From what I heard, they just did impromptu PT sessions.
  15. Is this your card? Well fuck you.
  16. True a libertarian wouldn't like the bases over seas, etc... But they wouldn't care about people freely donating their money for care packages.

    USAA required the same thing. MPF had no idea what I was talking about (who knows if they should have), but USAA eventually signed it off for me because they knew I was military. Come to think of it, it was probably the easiest thing about dealing with USAA for my mortgage.

    Good. I don't have to deal with the guy that counted my pushups last year anymore. 17... 18... 19... All the way down... 14... 15... 16...
  19. I always found him to be a crotchety old man. One who keeps errantly hit baseballs that land in his yard and disagrees with everyone regardless of the topic. Basically, the man I hope to someday be.
  20. Are the worried about CO2 or CO? I'm kind of worried about drinking soda now.
  21. And who are you first time poster?
  22. 1 set of boots every year? My God, I've had one set for 5-1/2 years and only got a new pair because of the color change.

    Um, it's Trident University. Don't drag that fine institution's name through the mud like that.
  24. Finding 69 (Causal): The mishap pilot had submitted leave through LeaveWeb with the start time of 0000 the following day. When it was accidentally approved, a rift in the space time continuum was created and an evil goateed version of the pilot was created 24 hours in the past. Before the leave monitor could correct the mistake, the evil pilot had engaged the good pilot in aerial combat.
