If I was to go to the COTA, it would be for the MotoGP; but I'm not sure if it's worth the time/money/time spent standing in the Texas heat when I can sit at home and watch the race, drink my own beer, and enjoy the air conditioning! 😁

A bud if mine sent this pic of his aviation display! 🤣🤣🤣

🤣 🤣 🤣

Interesting...but glad he's OK! (source) An F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jet piloted by the son of a candidate to be the Oklahoma attorney general crashed in rural Louisiana on Wednesday during a training exercise. Gentner Drummond, a former Air Force captain and Republican seeking the top law office in the Sooner State, said in a Facebook post that the plane was flown by his son, Alexander, a captain major in the Oklahoma Air National Guard 138th Fighter Wing who ejected prior to the crash...

Admin Note: Sorry brabus, there's no way in hell I am going to delete a post with this picture in it!

Too many people (including Biden) profit from high oil prices. None of those who work the oil fields here in Texas liked it when the price of a barrel dropped as far as it did, how are they expected to pay for their $85K pick-ups when gas is cheap?!?! Nsplayr, continue to support your boy Biden all you like; but the current economic crisis is all his fault. Your 'blame Trump' chant is old and always has been. I am sure you'll attack the sources as like Biden you've become a master of the "deny, deny, deny, counter accuse, demand an apology' response to any criticism; but the truth is his presidency is lining up to be an epic failure of biblical proportions, and no amount of propagandist BS from you is going to convince anyone otherwise! https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-says-inflation-putin-fault-not-democratic-spending https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2022/03/10/inflation-february/

I see the downfall of USAA starting with the expansion of clientele to the enlisted ranks. Now, before I catch hell; I am a prior-E myself and had USAA when I wore stripes on my uniform as I was on my father's policy prior, thus eligible to get my own. Then, when it opened up to anyone who ever served, that further accelerated the skid. Having been a member for going on 40 years soon, it was initially tough to be critical of USAA; but it's gotten a lot easier. For one, their main bank lobby has been closed since the first signs of COVID, and it's practically the only bank in the area that hasn't reopened. Secondly, their customer service has decreased considerably. Even when the lobby was open (i.e. pre-COVID), it was near impossible to talk to someone in person outside of the tellers. We had some questions about a trust for our youngest, and they put us in a small room and we had to VTC with someone. That really didn't sit well with me. The only reason I haven't moved is I have yet to find anyone that is considerably better. We have a lot wrapped up in USAA...banking, insurance, investments (until they sold out to Schwab), and as I mentioned, a trust. Some of those are easy to move, others not so much. But if I do find a better option worth the trouble, I won't hesitate to switch.

Naw, more like this!

Nope, when you say Downfall this is the movie I think of (and all the parody videos from it!)... But here's the link to the documentary you mentioned, it looks interesting! https://www.netflix.com/watch/81272421

Hopefully it's not the same one that's in the KC-46! 😲
