  1. Bitches are catty. They hate her plenty for being better shaped from the neck down.
  2. Bitch got out bikinied and culled the competition.
  3. The implication is regular rigorous, standardized training versus guys getting together and flying their favorite warbird when they have some time off and their number is called to get some seat time. A guy worked with at my prior stop was one of the ones who flew FiFi the B-29 from time to time. Now he was a seasoned expert on the CL604 and a well respected pilot. But you have to ask how much training and experience was he getting on the Superfort? It’s probably a valid concern. I flew three aircraft simultaneously in my freight days in the PA31, Be99 and SA227. I mostly flew the 227, and hated the 2-3 times a year where I’d get thrown into one of the other planes because I just wasn’t nearly as sharp in them.
  4. I know you were in the Continental Army at the time, but you might be able to verify. 😁 Also, that might be relevant if Old Ironsides was sunk, then salvaged from the Atlantic and put back into sailing shape.
  5. Texas Raiders in the Don’t Mess With Texas anti littering campaign was pure genius.
  6. I understand your point fine. My counterpoint to that was and is that there are many examples non flying warbirds all over this nation. We don’t need to preserve the flyable ones so that there will be some left for future generations to enjoy on static display. There are tons of them, for example, sitting on poles outside of the restaurant chain I mentioned above. If a B17 were something like a space shuttle or SR-71 where very limited examples were ever produced and fewer still yet exist then I would agree with the contention that we should park and preserve them. But that’s simply not the case. They are old machines, but are generally lovingly and painstakingly cared for. Sometimes they crash. Sometimes people are killed. That’s terrible, but it would be a disservice to future generations to ground them.
  7. I don’t really care how much is original. I’d love to see Glacier Girl one day.
  8. I’d expound upon that a bit. Should we keep all classic cars off the road after there’s a crash that kills the occupants? Those happen all the time. I can see an old Lightening, Jug or Mustang at any time outside of a 94th Aero Squadron restaurant let alone a museum. To see one in motion? Completely different. There’s a reason that UP spends considerable money restoring and operating 844, their Challenger or 4014. Living history matters. It teaches and inspires. And sometimes it ends in tragedy. Such is life.
  9. I wouldn’t pay a nickel to go up in one. I get enough flying in as it is, but a video hardly suffices for or replaces seeing one actually fly. Seeing a repainted husk on a pedestal or in a museum just isn’t the same.
  10. May have had to do with the Malzahn offense which is very run centric and has a lot of window dressing creating a lot of looks for defenses which in turn creates a lot of looks for OL countering those defenses.
  11. Not to preserve it in flying condition it isn’t. There’s not a shortage of B17’s sitting around to be looked at. Seeing them fly. That’s a different matter.
  12. I think that’s the conundrum. They keep flying them to give rides to raise money so that they will be around for future generations.
  13. I wonder if he checked his fly when he was asked.
  14. This. I tuned in to watch a Louisville game when Bridgwater was there, and wondered what kind of hot garbage I was watching on offense. Then Watson’ s name was mentioned. Oh. Now I get it. I knew Chuckles was in trouble when he decided to bring that tard to Austin to run a West Coast offense in college. I’ll never forget Watson saying out loud in a press conference that it would only take players 3 years to run the plays exactly as they’re drawn up. In college. Where the roster churns over every 3-5 years.
  15. Say what you will about the tenets of institutionalized rape. At least it’s an ethos.
  16. Damn right I would. Don’t miss that shit at all. Literally.
  17. I bet the only thing he covets is our personnel.
  18. Epps reminds me of Dan Buckner.
  19. I’ve always thought it interesting that people assume that other life would be far more advanced than humans. It’s a possibility. Even probable. But it’s just as possible that we’re the hottest thing going in non extinct civilization tech. As in then 787 might be the most advanced piece of mass transportation in existence.
  20. GE90’s. Hoover’s birds and spits out chicken flavored chemtrails.
  21. Meh. Had an emotional support dog throw up on rotation and proceed to have projectile squirts hitting people for two rows on a flight from Florida back to Texas. The dog then proceeded to lay soft serve all the way up the jet bridge to the terminal.
  22. OSU basically had two one play drives after halftime. Tulsa handled you offense without much issue otherwise after your one good offensive quarter. I understand being a little flat and the playbook closed in anticipation of Saturday’s tilt. Texas looked pretty lackluster against Rice with regard to intensity and some execution busts. The difference is that Texas put the Owls away quickly. Tulsa is the better team of the two, but they’re still borderline terrible, and played toe to toe with OSU. Also, Sanders underwhelmed. I can see him being a turnover machine if Texas gets up a couple scores and he has to press.
  23. I watched the OSU/Tulsa tilt last night and the Cowboys really underwhelmed in all facets of the game. Chuba something or other broke an early long run and the Pokes got up 17 before falling behind 21-20 at halftime or close to that. Tulsa defense was able to shut them down and turn them over from that point on save for a jump ball to Wallace and Sanders sprinting free to the single side in an empty set look for a TD. The latter was not unlike Burrow going around the left end for yardage when Orlando decided to blitz the kitchen sink willy nilly up the gut early in the game. Tulsa ran the ball at will for about two quarters and had numerous big pass plays called back for OL blocking downfield. Sanders looks pretty average with some very frosh QB like plays and Chuba only did damage after his big run when Tulsa’s LBs overran their fits. The Tulsa DL named Player generally shat all over their OL. We should comfortably win this one by 21, but the last decade of scarring and Orlando’s can’t figure out his defense until midseason routine makes me think this will be uncomfortably close with our DB’s single handedly keeping OSU in it by standing flat footed while Wallace hauls in jump balls.
  24. The self titled album by the hottest indie band in Portland.
  25. I'll have to check it out if I ever get back to Dayton. Bunch of bucket list planes in that building. I was surprised to see a B2 sitting in there.
