I'd constantly be drooling with a hardon staring up into the sky.

one day we'll all be like Bawb.

I had posted this a while back...you can see how close the walk path is to the taxiway here...the jet gives it a pretty good sense of scale.  They almost never taxi in this direction, though; this was a day where the wind was blowing kind of weird.

Got the little bastards today!  It is amazing how small the F-16 is compared to the F-22 and -15.  If you ever see them in formation together, it is very striking.

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.

Pictures didn't come out so great today.  I tried though.  Yesterday I saw a full-on air show coming into Hickam during breakfast; F-22s, F-15s (C and E), F-16s (including at least one D model) and even a pair of A-10s!

This is all I got today.  They were landing on the wrong runway all afternoon.  I also had the wrong lens on dammit:





I got bored waiting for more jets so I got a picture of Boomer holding down the fort.  Dogs can look so elegant sometimes.

You did a great job of getting some contrast on his face. Black dogs can be difficult to photograph since their color absorbs so much light (notice around his left eye how it starts to fade into one black spot). You got enough sun on him that you can really see his face and character. Well done!
