  1. If anyone hears that AETC rescinds their Monday Blues policy please post up. Not that it matters to me, but since my organization is on one of their bases, it will make the military folks here happy! Despite the fact that we don't have a single AD USAF person here, the Army and Navy folks assigned are still required to follow the base policy! Cheers! M2
  2. If anyone hasn't seen Fastest, the 2011 follow-on to Faster and The Doctor, the Tornado and the Kentucky Kid, it's well worth the money! Cheers! M2
  3. Saw this on another forum...
  4. I started Vol III but have stalled on it simply because I am in a lull from my usual travel schedule. Once I finish it I plan to go back and re-read the series as they provide some of the best and honest insight into the US SOF community that I've read in a long time! Plus, the first time around reading them I was usually tired, drunk, or a combination of the two. Cheers! M2
  5. Belgium, the Korea of Europe! That's not a guy?!? I thought it was Steve Harvey!
  6. Just more confirming they're not too bright up there in Tallahassee! Of course, after Florida's big win over the 'Noles, maybe she's become a University of South Florida fan!
  7. Homemade fire alarm...
  8. Only in the Army...
  9. He was her uncle.
  10. I can't believe such claims, it's shocking and this ain't gonna happen; I never typed her name, just copied a press article and pasted it, so it's no foul on my part. I am being falsely accused, maliciously libeled and viciously slandered with great malice, and Horde187 is the primary suspect. I demand an immediate apology from him for smearing my good name and reputation, and it better happen soon or craniums will roll! Technique only.

    Chuck Woolery...still kicking ass!
  12. Don't worry, the moderators on here will move this if we feel necessary. Since it isn't specifically tied to the election, I don't see what it can't have its own thread...
  13. Great compilation, but it's missing one...
  14. Worth posting...
  15. WTF? Seriously? The fucking Navy wants to put up 60,000 solar panels on what was Luke Field on Ford Island? And while he-whose-name-shall-not-be-spoken is mentioned in the article, you have to at least give him a little credit for advocating common sense in this matter. I hope the Navy extracts its cranium out its ass on this one!
  16. Yeah, you'd think I would by now...

    Here are some websites that have been recommended for finding deals on ammo... https://www.slickguns.com https://gun-deals.com/ammo https://ammoseek.com/ https://www.ammoengine.com/ Also, it appears Centerfire followed CTD's lead, from this post on an AK forum... Cheers! M2

    Cheaper Than Dirt gouged .223 the day after the election. Raised the price by a hundred bucks. Fuckers. 7.62x39 has been increasing in price/decreasing in availability for months now, last batch I picked up was through a bud who was getting rid of some and even then I didn't get the greatest of prices but I was just happy to find some. Try www.wideners.com Nevermind, I see they're out as well. Cheers! M2

    I stopped by an Academy sports store on my way home from work on Friday and things weren't looking too bad... That's about par for around here, and nowhere near as bad as it was this time back in 2008. Cheers! M2
  20. Way to go, Fox News!
  21. First and second rules of Fight Club. If I find out that the 9RW CIL is marked FOUO, as many CILs are, you're gonna take a vacation! And contraildash, do that again and I'm gonna kick your ass!
  22. From a buddy of mine who knows her...

    There has been some post-election gouging of prices, but I went by an Academy store yesterday after work and not only were the shelves filled as normal, but the firearms cases were as well. That said, Cheaper Than Dirt did increase their price on .223 by over a hundred dollars a case but I don't see such actions occurring much or lasting long. As for the UN treaty, it's another thing I am not going to get worried about. At this past weekend's gun show, and even at the gun shop I stopped by on Thursday, people were talking like the Obama re-election is going to cause the Second Amendment to go away. As you said, it requires ratification by a two-thirds majority and I don't think even the Democrats are that stupid. It's just more mouthwash from Obama to look like he's keeping with the Democratic agenda. One-third of those Senate seats will be contested in two years, 20 of which are currently behind held by Democrats. That party has done a great job of walking a fine line of not pissing off the huge minority that doesn't support it, such an action as ratifying this UN treaty could be the catalyst to cause independents to join forces with the Republicans to replace those who supported it. So far this hasn't been a repeat of 2008 in terms of overreaction to the election, thank God. I suspect as always some will try to take advantage of the paranoid, but for the most part I don't see any government action to suppress the rights of gun owners (the number and rights of which have been growing considerably over the past few years, Oklahoma just passed open carry effective 1 Nov of this year) as it would be very stupid to target that demographic. While some Democrats may preach gun control, I still think there is a large number of Conservatives in that party that realize what a stupid idea it is and will not join in on the effort. Just my 2ยข, your mileage may vary, etc... Cheers! M2
  24. Yep, 39-yr-old writer Paula Broadwell, who graduated West Point in 1995 and who this year was being investigated by the FBI for improperly trying to access Petraeus' email... "The Education of General David Petraeus" indeed!
