I woke up today to a B-17 circling above my house.  Im under the pattern for boca's executive airport so Im used to all the whimpy props and screeching jet sounds.  those 4 engines are DISTINCTIVE!
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Yeah, distinctive sound. I've see a B-17 twice. I'm pretty sure its the one used in the film, 'Memphis Belle'. The first time I was driving past Birmingham International Airport and it was taking off. I almost rammed the car in front, but then managed to pull over and watch it. An awesome sight indeed.

Dang, Star. That is a good omen.

Bully for you!
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Had one fly right over me landing at El Paso as I was driving to lunch last year.  I also almost wrecked.

With a little practice you can tell the make and model of most common aircraft without looking.
I have never actually heard a B17.
