I had just found that McKayla picture online and was looking for a way to use it. Your post was reasonably close enough to use it on!

As always, ftb made it exceptional afterward.

Yes, it was 80.

I had never heard of McKayla is not impressed until 80 put it up here. We are on the cutting edge of something around here. Not sure what, but it's something.

BTW, I can't wait to go flying in this hurricane.

I want to say "Center, do you have any ride reports?"

Center: "There is only one airplane out there except for you and it's a hurricane hunter."

Me: "Can you get a ride report from him?"
Hunter: continuous light chop, [B]occasional[B] moderate.

(have to consider the source, in this case)

Speaking of which, Why does the Navy use powdered soap vs. Soap on a rope?


It takes longer to pick up.

Based off the Fairchild C-123... which was a Douglas front company.

Little known fact,



they were going to name the four engine version the C-1234.

Then Lockheed stole it.

But we're not exactly happy with the military's war on Christmas either[2], thank you very much.

Just tell them to take their Mig 29s[1] and go elsewhere.

And don't want to go back anytime soon if we can avoid it...unless it prevents posting of shirtless dudes.

Another little known fact, I'm near Minimum Beer. There is Required Beer, Release Beer, Minimum Beer, Emergency Beer.

This is min beer.


And were postal guys allowed to drink beer in your uniform?

by postal, I mean Post Office. I am quite certain if you go postal you'd be allowed to drink in uniform.
