WTF? (**NSFW**)
These guys have been set up. These pictures will haunt them the rest of their (short) careers. At my Oklahoma high school in '67 or '68, they had a Mess (fill in the HS name) pageant for males in drag. The guy that won committed suicide before the 5th anniversary because of the ribbing he received. There was nothing ever vicious said, he was a nice and well liked guy, it just turned out to be what he was most remembered for and talked about. LS

Gun Talk
You AF guys and your fixation with 100+ year old gun technology and open carry. :D Us Army guys like H&Ks concealed. Who's the bad guy going to target first? And who is going to put a round through his bean on the next shot? ;)

This Walcott dude enlisted in 1999 then high-tailed it to Canada in 2006. He had to have re-enlisted at some point, Did a re-up bonus grubstake his desertion? LS

Harrison Ford Successfully Lands Malfunctioning Aircraft
Sounds like he did turn back for 03. That cost him altitude. There were some nice long fairways for him to set down on if he hadn't tried to "stretch" his glide back to the asphalt. Hope he's OK. LS

Harrison Ford Successfully Lands Malfunctioning Aircraft
Doubt he had time to try to turn back. That golf course is very close, small, and there to catch aircraft like this. (My wife got her Private ticket at SMO.) LS

1st female Air Force combat vet in run for congress
Well, she came through for my neighbor. He built an airstrip on his land 3 years ago and applied to the FAA for a airport designator. They have ignored his emails and phone calls since then. He called MMc's office yesterday and got a call from the FAA at 0730 this morning giving him his designator. I've got to give her thumbs up for that. LS

Jordanian F-16 down over Syria - Pilot captured by ISIS
Yes they do. The Fort Hood massacre was called "workplace violence". Where was the outrage from the sheeple at that? A PH moves one to to the head of the medical care line. The video wasn't shown on the network shows, it was offered as a choice on their website. Don't want to watch it, don't watch it. Simple enough. If it was one of ours? Then it was one of ours. How about the Blackwater guys hanging from the bridge? Were they ours? It's a war. A dirty war. And we'd be advised to start fighting it. No lawyers allowed at any level and let the enemy determine the ROE. LS
