  1. Ugh.

    Freedom isn't free. We have the greatest military force the planet has ever seen because it is all volunteer. We're not talking about a gravy train. We're talking about people willing to give 20 years of their lives to serve their country and accept some pretty significant sacrifices, not the least of which are financial.

    Simple economics...remove the incentives and say goodbye to your chances of attracting and retaining the best talent.

    You are right, freedom is indeed not free, I think I heard somewhere that it costs $1.05. All kidding aside, I attempted to caviat the gravy train comment with a reference to federal spending in general. Fail. What I refer to is the massive entitlement culture that has been created and the fact that it cannot be sustained. What you and I consider to be worthwhile expenditures of entitlements (military pensions), others think that gay illegal alien mothers of 14 are a more worthwhile. So to get it done, everyone must take a bite of this giant shit sandwich that we have made for ourselves in order to get past picking winners and losers. This is just the beginning of the default on promises that will come from the state. Now, to play devil's advocate for a second, why is it unreasonable to expect a retiree to find gainful employment for themselves between retirement and this proposed age of 57.

  2. Aim High

    We've Been Waiting for You

    Above All - .....

    Who Cares, I think we found out new AF sponsor!

    Pffft, joke's on her. With them narrow hips she couldn't have more than 10 or 12 children.

    That was an admittedly nice distraction from watching the Chiefs blow it on Sunday.

  3. It's pretty much the money. I've been running the release candidate version since early this summer and have only had issues with SQL Server 2005. Just upgraded my work PC last night and everything has been smooth. Also, just FYI, anything 64 bit is going to be a pain in the ass. It's just not widespread enough.

  4. Saw a video clip on U-Tube this morning with him "promoting" it at a campagin stop in July 08, called it a "Civilian Security Force..." WTF is that supposed to do? Anyone have any info on this one?

    OBTW, the whole crowd was clapping, cheering, etc... Shades of Nuremberg perhaps?

    Holy snot, probably don't want to go there again. Already been discussed and the obama apologists swear that it has to do with beefing up the state department.

  5. What are you talking about?

    the guy comes on here asking about whether or not he should tell his friend he saw her on a porn site. Then he posts his friend's picture on this very forum. Yeah, I think that's retarded and he should erase the pictures. That's cool he got some points with his baseops internet bros, but in the process he totally betrayed his supposed friend.

    You don't think I already know who that girl is, just based on his pictures and doing 20 minutes of googling?

    Hmm, let's see the clues. Facebook. Georgia Tech. Cheerleader. White female brunette. That pretty much narrows it down. You can figure out her approximate age by her cheerleading uniform.

    Why don't you post your picture on here if you don't think it matters.

    Why don't you tape an aspirin to your aching p*ssy. This chick has been on TV and other media hundreds of times, so it should be no surprise that the picture ends up somewhere less than reputable.

    As far as the origional post: Ignorance is bliss.

  6. My granddad was too young to serve in WWII, but too old/married with kids to serve in Korea.

    My other grandpappy was a Marine in Korea.

    My old man managed to find a gig in the national guard during Vietnam.

    I am the first Officer in my family (that I know of) and for sure the first flyer in my family. Consequently they all think I'm nuts.

  7. So at $4.3M per copy (USAF fact sheet pricing there!) that's $8,600,000 down the shitter.

    If it had been mighty tweet jets playing bumper cars, we'd be looking at $330,000 for BOTH.

    I wonder how much Tweet maintenance and jet fuel you could pay for with the spare change from just this one mishap.

    Glad to hear everyone made it out.

    Firstly - tweet schmeet, get over it.

    Secondly - That ejection seat on the T-6 kicks arse. Glad everyone made it out.

  8. I did call. That rumor is the scoop, just not officially, hence why I "heard the same sort of stuff". When I speak with someone who officially tells me that same info, I'll make sure to post it up.

    "I know. The...one place you wouldn't think you'ld find the world's most irritating sound. In a golf cart." Classic.

  9. I doubt one of you guys can tell me you've never been straight up drunk. I also doubt that you same guys didn't drive somewhere THE NEXT DAY. All I'm trying to do is be safe. Or say I've had 48 oz of beer in say 3 hours I'm going to be close to the legal limit. What's wrong with wanting to be safe?

    yes, 0013 is a great method to make sure you're safe. But, I'm in college and sometimes I have more than that. Like I've said before, this is for the day after. One of my friends just got a dui at something like 1130 in the morning and he hadn't had a drink in almost 12 hours.

    There's nothing wrong with wanting to make sure I'm under the legal limit if I need to drive somewhere.

    4 beers in three hours! I'm surprised you can even stumble to your car! You sir are a god among men! :salut:

    What is wrong with you kids today. Pathetic.
