I saw that, I'm inclined to think we'll know they're really hurting when they drop the age again.

Are they still at 25 year old to get drafted?

And China. The pipelined oil goes the other way.

I'd call pictures of a Democrat shooting an AR as a PR stunt a win. Even if they're brain dead for shooting metallic targets that close.

This presentation is really good. Anyone who's spent enough time in the government/defense industry will see a lot of familiar stuff.

I'm not known for being concise.

There's an interview with a town official towards the end. Peter principle in action.

Fair point. But there were folks ready to go. That just leads to point two of mine. This isn't the first time bureaucrats have put their focus into "establishing and maintaining" control, instead of rolling with the punches and making shit happen. Seems to be more and more common place these days, but that happened at Katrina as well. It's just that the lower levels beat the bureaucrats to the scene.

Rescue crews were enroute Saturday morning. Katrina was a series of near mid-airs. It was worth the risk, but it's pretty easy to see where a bureaucrat would learn the wrong lesson, and middle managing peons would then take it too far. In any event, this guy has some gouge from guardsmen on the ground about where some of the rumor is likely coming from.

Unmask AADs, crack down on 36-2903, no friday shirts or patches, guess we're about due for no civilian clothes at the gym, reflective belts and Rescue back to AFSOC. As the world turns, this too shall pass, and all that....

These people believe in magic.

Couple things for the non rotary folks: Lights with no secondaries are not treated the same as lights with secondaries. Land immediately over water means you're ditching intentionally. Transmission chip detectors have a fuzz burn function that tries to burn up the chip. When that's active, it usually illuminates the chip light (it's completing the circuit). I'm told this is not abnormal on an Osprey. On a 60 it's pretty common on a new transmission, but not once broken in. Repeated fuzz burn is not normal.

You're thinkin about me an awful lot. Tell your mom hi.

Dude, you're railing against straw men. I made no absolutist policy arguments. But the above is the whole point. Have fun. I'm done.
