  1. I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for people to abandon the whole "the end is nigh" crap. Even today there are a handful of Branch Davidians in Waco who still believe all his shit.
  2. Seems legit. Was he also wearing desert boots with his service dress?
  3. This sounds like the $100 seminar you go to with 10,000 other people, about how to become a millionaire...where you learn that the secret is to develop a product/service that costs $100, and sell it to 10,000 people.
  4. Shiner is solid. Also, the KLTS Class 6 has been selling 6 packs for $5.99 for the past 2 months. So it's pretty much 90% of the beer I drink these days. 7/10 by itself, but 8/10 due to the fact that I haven't gotten tired of it like I do with a lot of the other stuff.
  5. Good job. By this time tomorrow, the Shoebot 9000 (which scours the internet for trending topics related to 2903, Jointness, Net-centric...ness, etc.) will have flagged it as an awesome idea, worthy of being the first bullet of somebody's Bronze Star 1206.
  6. Also, it just looks about 20% cooler than the Harrier. That thing never won any beauty contests.
  7. or 160 B-2's. At 1 billion a pop.
  8. A few years ago the Peterson AFB Honor Guard had a girl who was clearly overweight. Like 40 lbs or more. She may have been pregnant. Maybe. But I kind of doubt it. WTF is up with Honor Guard commanders approving the acceptance/retention of someone like that, especially for such a hi-vis position?
  9. A gunship from the -38 drop? Huh.
  10. Kill aliens, duh.
  11. Not be confused with the Chinese ship, the PRN Happy Ending.
  12. The closest I could find was this presentation from June, which indicates Preds currently at Fargo, with Preds and Global Hawks planned for Grand Forks. It doesn't break it down by AD/ANG/USAFR
  13. Depending on where you're going, you should be able to get what you need downrange for a lot cheaper (and of course 10x faster) than buying it online and having it shipped.
  14. At DLF the only time I remember the issue coming up was when we had Magoos (area solos) assigned to areas with the potential for IMC. They simply told us to stay VMC, but that sounds more like the SOF trying to spare some kid an episode of spacial-D when there is nobody there to help him. Just speculating, since I don't remember there being a policy one way or the other.
  15. Won't happen. People who live in nice places are 20% happier overall, and don't get their panties in a wad and go to war over dumb stuff.
  16. That's awesome. I did some homebrewing when I was in Colorado. I used a pair of the Mr. Beer setups, and overall it cost about the same to make a batch as it would cost to buy the same amount of premium beer from the Class 6. It was lots of fun, and after 10 batches, I've only had one of them go bad along the way.
  17. TIB, Somalia edition.
  18. Now that you mention it, I remember the 420 from the Chili's in KATL. It was decent.
  19. Gentlemen, If this thread is destined to go on a nerd kick, let's at least make it a hot nerd kick... Also, any nerd discussion needs to have about 20% more Summer Glau...
  20. The Mothership is pretty good, but my favorite New Belgium is Trippel. It reminds me of banana bread a little bit...not sure why. But for now I'm on the obligatory annual Sam Adams Octoberfest kick.
  21. Winglets make a jet 20% cooler.
  22. Sam Adams Boston Ale. Most people have tried the Boston Lager (it's their flagship product, after all), but I only recently started seeing the Boston Ale. It's pretty good, if you're into hoppy ales. 8/10.
  23. What do you expect from a company whose names is pronounced like "wrong gin"?
  24. Weird...your kid sister looks a lot like me. Also, ###### that guy. He dedicated his life to inciting wanton violence against innocent people. In 500 years, people will marvel that anybody took the Quran so seriously, in the same way that now we marvel how ancient Egyptians took the Book of the Dead so seriously.
  25. So...if/when there really IS some kind of cataclysm that turns real life into some sort of Mad Max world, will those people feel stupid or vindicated???
