Very good, Star.  And so fast with the visual aids.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

Master Chiefs are sneaky, dastardly, and snarky miscreants who thrive on the tears of Ensigns and belly dancers.   Admiral Gerry Bogan.

well to be fair its not like there were ever a lot of Japanese aircraft subs to dig through.   ;)

for those that have kids, get them into model building.  ya learn a lot of history and shizzle!
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.

not something you see everyday:

The 82nd ATRS operates the Department of Defense's only full-scale aerial target program. The QF-16 will provide a more accurate representation of real world threats for testing and training.

If we use those to buzz Iranian jets over the Gulf I think we should put glow-in -the-dark plastic skeletons wearing Ray-Bans in the pilot's seats, making sure that the Iranians got a good look as the F-16s buzz them.

Glorious. Something about those lines makes that era amazing.
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.

I took about 150 shots of a B-17, B-24, and a P-51 from a 'Wings' tour back in 2010. Here's but a few of them.
