She's getting thicker but still attractive for sure. I have noticed she's getting a smokers voice, it's a little nasty.

Dude dressed like Elmo kicks attackers ass.

It's all good man.

Another win for the grammer police. Thanks for keeping the rest of us safe.

I think it's that boring group of nobody's who plan exercises every now and then.

Respect.

Just as tactics and strategy are different, style and substance are also different. The style, mechanics or technique are not the definition of modernism or post-modernism. The substance, or mentality of approaching art and creation fundamentally changed away from classicalism; and it's this schism I refer to. The idea of successful art forcing the viewer to question some aspect of themselves or their own assumptions is inherently a product of modernism. This differs significantly from the classical approach of telling the viewer something and judging it's own success by the ability to convey the artists intent to the viewer visually. At the heart of modernism is the concept that "good art" cannot be quantified whereas the classical artist is judged on his ability to express his thoughts to the viewer. This is why modern artists argue that there is no real definition of art, whereas those schooled classically will respond that art is an image which expresses an emotion (or intellectual idea). Not that modernism and classicalism are the only two schools out there! But the idea of modernism forcing the viewer to question something and thereby become "enlightened" was off putting enough that I had to enter this absurdly off track bitch fest to have my say.

Therein lies the crux of conflict between classical and modern/post-modern thinking regarding the arts. Feel free to carry on with the drama contest, but I simply can't abide the notion that artistic enlightenment can be attained by asking questions instead of providing answers.

You guys were given an LOC for not cutting your grass? Was it that bad, or is this just mistaken leadership priorities?

I'm not one to make a mountain out of a molehill, but this looks exactly like a dry run. If you're a terrorist, how else do you practice? Maybe these guys were simply told what to carry through customs so someone else could gage the responses and timing. Who knows. But chances are high that this was not simply some innocent dudes who happen to tape cell phones together when they travel. I think that is the least likely scenario.

Exactly. Who wouldn't be humming along with a hot chick asking someone to fuck her? And Mike Honcho, feel free to PM me if you're ever around Hurlburt and we can continue your conversation in person.

Don't know how you found that little gem pawnman, but well done sir. Is it gay for me to hum "fuck me, ray bradbury?"

Exactly why we should kill these dudes on the ocean and sidestep the courts entirely.

Yea, what a terrible idea. It's already hard enough for us to do this right, how can anyone expect a guy on the ground facing those additional myraid of difficulties to do a better job? Just because the technological capability exists, doesn't mean it's a good idea in practice.

Just returned from Bagram, and I thought it was the easiest deployment I've ever had in terms of queep. Not one word was said to me about my rolled up sleeves or civilian jacket with my flight suit. I didn't wear AF PT gear the entire time. Sorry to hear about that one guy, but for my boss mission was definitely the number one priority and nothing else mattered.

All joking aside, did you guys ever find that sperm bank at home station? It would be a legendary squadron fundraising opportunity.

I'm not a T2 guy or even a 130 guy now. But if you don't understand exactly what the language means then you lack the overall understanding of what asset brings what capability to the fight. If you want to be taken seriously when talking to other communities, expecially in joint ops, then you need to use the right language.

Wow dude, you must be awesome!

I don't mean to be rude, but how much LL experience do you have? You can't fly a route aggressively enough visually to do the same thing with an aircraft that a T2 guy with TF does. Modified contour is what you're describing.

Wow dude, you must be awesome!

You guys might be using the language differently. You certainly do need a TF radar to do true TF. If you don't have the actual radar then you're just doing what slicks do: modified contour. You can "follow the terrain" visually and calculate your own start climb points/turning radius on a chart, etc. and the actual flight profile will follow the terrain. But that isn't the same as what the T2 guys do.

The 53rd uses everyone elses aircraft, so the number of tails with "53" written on them is irrelevant. The 61, 50, and 53 are all dual H3/E qual'd and use each others birds. The 53rd was not replaced by the 41st, the 41st was deactivated at pope and stood up at LRF as a J squadron, whereas the 53rd was deactivated as an AETC squadron and stood up immediately after as an AMC squadron with initial cadre from the 61/50th.

No complaints here!

Great retort, but you lose cool points when it takes three years for your comeback.

I haven't used that particular sight but I've used the reflex and I'm currently running the trijicon tripower on my LMT piston MRP. It's a good sight and trijicon makes a good product, but were I to do it over again I'd spend the extra couple hundred for a good aimpoint (have one on another gun, love it). These style sights (fiberoptic lit) are great in theory but have a few problems in execution. The reticle is really bright when outside, even under cover; however, if you are looking at something really bright and shooting from cover (think every covered range you've ever used) the washout starts to be a problem. The tripower is great at night though, because you can turn it on and it will be as bright as any aimpoint. The reflex (and this is similar) is pretty useless at night. These sights are designed as a supplement to iron sights, not a replacement the way Aimpoint/EOtech are. Bottom line, I'd pass on this product. For a little more you'll get an aimpoint or similar lit optic and be happier (I also have both an aimpoint and EOtech). Battery life is very long for quality optics and washout won't be an issue. You won't have to worry about how bright the reticle will be on various objects. FWIW, I'd also pass on the dr optic/ACOG combo above. I'd love the ACOG if I were shot down in OEF because engaging targets at 300m would be a realistic possibility, in fact that's what is on my issue M4 (minus dr. optic). But for plinking or home defense or competition in the states I don't really use magnification. Just my preference, but it's a very expensive set up. Still cool though, just not worth the price to me personally.
