Pretty sure I saw that plane in an episode of Jonny Quest. It kicked ass against the giant spider robot.

We need to work on a giant spider robot. I think our research is well underway on zeppelin aircraft carriers, but we're way behind on giant spider robots.

Probably Martok is doing some kind of sabotage. We'll need to look into this.

Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

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.

My doctor wrote me a prescription for daily sex.

My wife insists that it says dyslexia but what does she know.

I have a soft spot for Tau stuff, too.

Everything about Jonny Quest kicked ass! That was can't miss tv for me as a kid.

So long as it's obviously robotic and doesn't appear organic, I'm cool with it. 

On the other hand, if it's realistic enough to resemble Shelob or Ungoliant, I'm dropping a motherf**king nuke on it.  (Or more -- however many it takes.)

Nuke 'em from orbit...it's the only way to be sure.

Apparently the F-35 can't even make a flight from Texas to Nevada.

In fairness, Texas is a big state. It probably won't have to fly that far in combat since most countries aren't as big as Texas.

Its important to have range for interception and patrol... especially up here in the Great White

Aft visibility, who needs it?

It's like tracers: they work both ways.

But if you can't see them, they can't see you.
