I can’t believe states get away with laws that blatantly violate the constitution. How has every single one not been eradicated by SCOTUS cases at this point; it’s insanity.

Herk may not be pretty, but 99% of the time she'll get you there everytime!

You see it at the local levels too. People may get into it for altruistic reasons, but it doesn’t take long for most to be captivated by the attention, the feeling of power, “being someone important,” etc. Phase 1 - I’m here to make good changes and clean this mess up! Phase 2 - I like this attention and power Phase 3 - Do what I can to enrich myself and close allies while pretending I’m “just a regular Joe like all of you [suckers]!”

Pearl Harbor was 84 years ago. From the end of the Civil War to Pearl Harbor... 76 years.

Just to save everyone from having to go on Instagram...

Those pockets aren’t going to line themselves!

There was a time when actual assimilation was demanded. It would not work out well for an immigrant who didn’t fully assimilate. Fast forward to today when all the soft, ignorant people practically advocate for the exact opposite. Personally, I think there’s a balance between the Ellis Island heyday and current day. That balance is something like you don’t have to change your name, completely erase your heritage, forget your native language, etc. But, you must assimilate to western values and way of life, as well as abide by our laws. We also should not be bending over backwards to placate to what “you” came from. If you don’t like learning English and adapting to American society, then GTFO and go back to wherever you came from.

You're a regular ol' Johnnie Cochran for miami

It's amazing how these prior-mil guys get elected to congress and then decide to go full retard. (It's cool, that word is allowed again)

How these reps become multi-millionaires in a short period of time is insane. Crenshaw is going to double-down and his Shiz is going to get exposed.

Beautifully done by the gents! IMG_9166 2.MOV

Strange, I couldn't find a post from you saying WTF when it was changed under Biden. Did that Secretary of State also lose a bet?

Bad cops suck.

Nothing new, when I arrived at my first assignment over 40 years ago, the SP squadron had been nearly wiped out by an unannounced piss test!

We had SF on base get busted for stealing from snacko cash boxes of various section on base. Another one was busted for breaking the lug nuts on another guys jeep because of a love triangle. "Cops...biggest, legal street gang around." This is quote by a squadron mate who was a former cop.

You never know with SF. Just before I got to Cannon OSI made a major bust and rolled up like 50 people, many of them were base cops, apparently if you wanted drugs on base you just went to the flightline to buy if from the cops.

It would be tough dealing with all of those 18-25 yo cops. Im thankful I wasn't a Security Forces or MX officer. That's a different way of life.

At this point, I would happily just take knowing what quarter I’ll be PCSing. This wait and the limbo we’re in might be worse than waiting on board results.

Glad to hear that, it just popped up on Airplanes and Coffee I think and I wanted to promote here

Coincidently, I met one of the guys leading the charge for this, on Wednesday in Vegas at the ICAS convention. He sounded very optimistic at how things are progressing, and I sure hope they can pull this off.

Great question. 🤷‍♂️

I happen to be in Ann Arbor for the week, I should swing by the cop shop to see the media mess. Even as a Buckeye, I hate to see this downfall. What a mess he's made! Hopefully he finds his center and remembers he still has kids that need him. As an aside, if your family ever needs significant pediatric care, you'd be remiss if you didn't explore the University of Michigan medical center. This place is outstanding!

I know not the Congresscritter this thread was started for but… Ole Crenshaw started a fight with Shawn Ryan that might not go very well for him. I’ll be interested in how this plays out.

Don't worry about the VML. I got put on it after selection and eventually all of that went away once my assignment was loaded. AFPC knows your situation.

So with the Michigan coach getting canned and seemingly going full Waltz, who had this on the bingo card of college football craziness?

Probably because its right up there with sock color and cobwebs in the bushes outside the Wing building. Only tards care about that shit. But since you posit, I goog'ed. Apparently, Microsoft changed their standard font from Times New Roman to Calibri during the Bush Jr administration.

Yeah dude, definitely don't congratulate them on a nice 5-ship missing man...

The best political communiques are in wingdings. 👎︎◆︎♒

Its nothing close to my more spendy quality guns but it goes bang when you want it to go bang

I have that exact setup and its even cheaper now then when I bought it last year.

I'm good...and I gave up Bourbon for rum for which I am now a complete snob, you should try it. I have a lot of friends from ND and frankly when I played ball, they were the dirtiest team we ever took the field against. Interestingly they spent the last few weeks trolling Miami of several Miami websites but have suddenly vanished now that their bubble has burst. Interesting note about the bowl games, they generate a lot of revenue for the local area where they are played and for the teams, those funds can be channeled into other sports. Did you see the fines being handed out by the conferences for teams skipping a bowl game...$500K per team...such a waste. More than anything I hate the special treatment and the MOU serves to show the bias continues and is blatant even though they haven't won a natty in 32 years.

They never should have been ranked ahead of Miami...FINALLY the committee got it right.

Florida State, Auburn, UCF, Baylor, Rutgers, Temple, Kansa, Iowa State, Notre Dame, and Kansas State have all declined bowl games. The sponsors for these bowls have got to be shitting themselves right now.

Giant bunch of crybabies. ND.mp4

Paywalled. I say threaten to delete our debt to them if they cross into Taiwan.

What about Indiana!? Holy smokes I never thought I’d see Indiana football mentioned in any discussion of possible college football Champions! Anybody think they can keep it up through the playoffs?

facts. standard re-attack.

Never had a positive OSI experience - I feel like every single one I’ve interacted with, even in an unofficial capacity, is a total slime ball just looking to nail anybody and everybody, truth be damned. Do not trust OSI, ever.

Addressing the OP: If you thought the USAF screwed you over, just wait until you experience an airline during contract negotiations. It sounds like outside influences have been crafted your outlook for you. It may be completely true that you were actively screwed by the system, but getting bitter only means you're letting the system win. The airlines will happily assume the role of screwing you over if you let them. I can show you a large collection of 30-year widebody captains making millions of dollars who are thoroughly convinced they've been screwed by the system. They are no fun to be around. It's all perspective. Pick your's with care. Choose gratitude instead of trying to pinpoint who's screwing you over. The answer to that question will always be "someone and/or everyone". Conversely, if you focus on what you're grateful for, you'll find a lot of good things in life. Pick one, you can't focus on both. I punched at 17 years and joined the reserves for 3 years. Now I'm at a major airline. In all three of those locations it is VERY easy to look around and wonder why the grass isn't as green as advertised. Reality is that the grass on the other side is just a different kind of grass. Once you get into a new organization, you'll see all the warts. You get to decide if it's good or bad, but if you let the system decide, it'll definitely suck. Truths: The system (usaf or corporate) doesn't owe you anything. Your hard work will be overlooked, but it will craft your reputation among your peers. Once you're gone, the system won't care. Maximize your personal gain without screwing others over, ignore the BS, do your work will, keep your integrity in tact, find a niche you can enjoy. Focus on good things, and your next career will be great. Focus on the hate, and you'll hate it. It's a DAILY choice.
