  1. There’s a fantastic book titled “Into the Silk” about the Caterpillar Club’s beginnings through the beginning of the jet age.

    Are you for real? Based off the limited information released, the conclusion you came to is suicide by cop? Sure would be nice to see the body cams.. oh wait.

    Found the full hearing.. waste of time, the summary: Democrat ranking member spends his time stroking the ATF Director’s dick. ATF director answers few if any questions from Republican congressmen.

    What the fuck. I realize I’m only seeing one side and I’m going to look for the full testimony.. how is this remotely ok to ATF and PD leadership? How come there isn’t rioting in the streets over this? Do the cops and agents executing this warrant truly not see the difference between this guy and the gang-bangers in North Little Rock? All that thin blue line bullshit and the flags, fuck those guys. I used to give the benefit of the doubt to the cops and agents. They have a dangerous job, have to deal with the violent and the crazies. It’s more and more apparent, *they* are creating the violent situations. Can’t wait to see what “justice” is served here.
  5. Gotcha, was hoping it was somewhere around Beale.
  6. Where’s it hangared at?
  7. Too big to fail, or be meaningfully punished.
  8. Thanks. I should’ve asked if there was a DSG only offer. We had one a few years back in the Reserves, but I guess that’s been scaled down a bit or eliminated
  9. I can find the AD and AFRC bonus with this name on myFSS, is there an ANG version as well? My Wing's retention office is about as useful as a paper bag in a monsoon.. the only information they have fits the categories of none, little, and vague..
  10. Cobras!
  11. And we are all collectively paying for her degrees and probably future salary and health care!
  12. When does this rise to the threshold for domestic terrorism?

    Welcome to the jungle, lead in with banging on trash cans
  14. More loans? That don’t get paid off til they die, then the estate pays them with probably some sort of generous tax advantage. You know though, a good way to ensure everyone (ultra-rich, poor, legal, illegal) pay their fair share.. a national sales tax—tied to the elimination of other taxes of course.
  15. @ClearedHot What did you end up going with? My requirements are pretty minimal.. was thinking of just going with their cheapest single bay and a reasonable hard drive. Mostly just want to backup family photos and videos, organize and manage them, view/distribute as necessary. I would have said I am technically inclined.. but those penguins have long ago jumped off the iceberg. Synology definitely looks user friendly. Being able to expand and store home security footage in the future would be nice too. But maybe that needs to be a whole separate system?
  16. It counts for nothing
  17. Haven’t done a Google search.. how many other mental disorders have national visibility days? Do we have national schizo day? Or bi-polar awareness history month?
  18. Didn’t we lose or damage an F-22 because of TOLD? Story I remember is they were using numbers for sea level when it was actually in a high PA environment. Something like that.
  19. Choke the mission planner or DIRMOBFOR?
  20. You might be able to fly with other units. I have friends who did that in similar circumstances
  21. It was known from day one by anyone with a functioning brain. Sadly, that is less than 49% of our country.
  22. herkbier replied to B*D*A's topic in Squadron Bar
    It’s been a while since I’ve been to either museum.. but I recall a depth vs breadth contrast between the two.
  23. If you’re under the new retirement system.. this is bad advice. If you front load your TSP, you lose out on some of the government match (5% max) in the remaining months of the year. To maximize dollars, you need to make plan out what you’ll make during the year and set a consistent percentage that allows you to hit the max during the final month of the year. OR, front load, like described above, but ensure you can contribute 5% yourself for all remaining months of the year.
