    Maybe not so weird. Generally the same way Miculek runs his - must be something to it. Cheek weld and all that.

  3. Nope. Never used em. I'd probably look for Tyvek that works with a laser printer. They're out there and I'm sure you can find some first hand experiences.
  4. Print on Tyvek if you have the $$$. https://www.materialconcepts.com/products/tyvek/sheets/
  5. I would have needed 8 months of UPT and 15 months for PCS waived. Mine didn't reach AFPC until last week, after sitting at the WG/CC for weeks. I knew I was a long shot from the beginning with an overage of only 18 (?).
  6. Officially denied VSP today. I thought I'd have to wait until 1 May to get the inevitable email. 2003 11M with ADSC left

  9. My wife used part of mine to finish her BS and she's a stay at home mom. If I don't go back to school when I get out, I'll give the rest to my son if he needs it. I agree it didn't make financial sense in the short term, but now she has it if she ever has to work. The real reason, however, was that she wanted it and she's proud to be the only college graduate in her family. We often do irrational things to keep our marriages going.
  10. KRFT is up .72% today. Coincidence? I think not. ETA: And they're dropping the energy bars! I lived off those BAF-issued breakfast bars for weeks. What were they? Kellogg's?
  11. Crazy Carl does a Pensacola ATP class occasionally, if you can get ahold of him. He uses a DPE out of Fairhope or somewhere nearby there.
  12. I'm not a finance pro, don't take anything I say as gospel... I don't see why it would matter. I'm a big fan of Vanguard, and they have a headline about this that says: "Converting assets from a traditional Vanguard IRA to an existing Vanguard Roth IRA" https://personal.vanguard.com/us/insights/taxcenter/tips-rothira-conversion So reading between the lines, an existing Roth isn't a problem at all for the backdoor, which is really just a special kind of IRA conversion. There are tax considerations if you have other traditional IRAs you're not converting, but I don't know enough about your situation to even guess how that'll play out. Give Vanguard or whoever you use a call - it's a relatively popular strategy. It's usually used by high earners, but the theory is the same for your married filing separately case.
  13. So it could get lost among 27 pages of unrelated posts? You must work in TMO.
  14. I'm having a problem with TMO and need regs/ammo to fight this. Story: PCSd from Florida to Wyoming with TDY enroute at Little Rock. Partial DITY/PPM the entire trip. I got empty and full weight tickets for both legs of the move. I filed my DITY paperwork and have received two payments. Here's the problem: They only paid me for 600 pounds Florida to LR and LR to WY. They are refusing to pay me for the remainder of my weight from FL to WY. As I understand it, I should have received payment for 600 pounds FL-LR-WY and the remainder of the weight from FL-WY. TMO here says they already "used" my 4 weight tickets on the 2x 600 pound moves and cannot reuse those weights for the remainder of my weight for the FL-WY move. He quoted me this JFTR Supplement as his basis of refusal: So... anyone got any ideas?
  15. Any AF flyer that ever thinks they'll want the ATP oughta test by August. This is more important than your Masters, Lt.

    Sure, everyone wants a piece of that exploding advertising money pie. Exhibit A: Ruger stock
  17. This caught me as a sad commentary on the future of Afghanistan. Karzai: "If there is no peace, then this agreement will bring misfortune to Afghanistan," he said. "Peace is our precondition. America should bring us peace and then we will sign it." https://www.reuters.com/article/2013/11/24/afghanistan-us-karzai-idUSL4N0J905P20131124 I scold my 3 year old son for shirking personal responsibility... Think someone will scold Karzai for the same?

    No. It's talking about the NFA AOW (Any Other Weapon) tax. https://www.atf.gov/firearms/guides/importation-verification/firearms-verification-nfa-aow.html

    Got one happening right now. Walked into Finance at 0837. Male and female TSgts in the office. Female is on her cell phone. Me: "I'd like to outprocess." Male TSgt: "We open at 9, sir. We'll help you then." Where's Robin Olds when you need him?
  20. I don't know the origin, but it's more than a rumor. This from way back in 08: I guess if that's a fight you want to pick, rock your horizontal shoulder holster. My goal there is/was anonymity.
