How do you invest this much time and effort in a physical hobby and still weigh 300 pounds? Sword skills or not, he isn't sneaking up on his victim any time soon.

I'm not a ninja sword Connoisseur, but are plastic water bottle typically tough to slice?

Sh!t, I've sliced an aluminum soda can with my boot knife while stocking the snacko fridge.

Not sure. There's no denying though that he is putting quite a bit of momentum behind each swing. It's all in the hips.

He has BQZip's mom's hips.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say GearDownNoGreen must be a single, homely 45y/o woman surfing the internet for cute cat videos to share with us here at BOps.

No shit. He is embarrassing the tribe.

10 for 10 on the scale and being born in Hawaii pretty much sums it up.......

He was at the Nellis BX last week signing copies of his book...NSTFS!

He wouldn't make it through the gate as he would be shot on sight but funny nonetheless!

I thought you were posting his picture in reference to Rainman's "10 ways to spot a sociopath" link.

I think Timmah's sociopath-o-meter goes to 11.

After thirty minutes of failed attempts to log into the network however, LtCol Lee spent part of his afternoon across town fixing account problems.

So damn funny, so damn sad.

Wait... how can I be any more efficient at CBTs than my current process of clicking the right arrow as fast as humanly possible?

They replaced all the fluorescent lights in the squadron today. The contractor said they were doing 52 facilities. The AF paid $80,000 for 40,000 28 watt bulbs to replace the 32 watt bulbs. All the working 32 watt bulbs, including the unused ones in the warehouse, are to be recycled at a COST of $25,000. Genius.

32-28 = 4 watt savings per tube

4 watts * 8 hours = 48 watt-hours = 0.048 kWh per tube per day

0.048 kWh/(tube-day) * $0.112/kWh = $0.005376 / (tube-day)

$0.005376 / (tube-day) * 40,000 tubes = $215.04 / day

$105,000 / ($215.04 / day) = Pay off in 488 days

Assuming the tubes last as long as the replacements and the new tubes cost the same or less to replace, this isn't the worst ROI I've ever seen.
