    An interesting view on world events

    This. They have it down pat too. They've been doing it in Africa for at least the last 20 years and currently expanding into South America.

    Yeah, it's real. I had another pilot on my jumpseat a couple days ago that was going home from a family vacation in Paris. He said his ride to the airport had to deviate a few times around fires in the street. He saw some of the groups out. Now, that doesn't mean that the folks rioting are good...

    Thank you for posting this. My wife is a nursing professor at a major medical center. We've been talking about this for years. COVID put the peddle to the floor and mashed the NOS button..

    Last winter I did JFK-DEN with 200kts on the nose until descent. Pretty sure the semis were passing us on the interstate

    Or get a Siamese. They talk..and talk and talk and talk. Usually sounds like, "Hey slave with opposable thumbs, the food dish is empty!"

    I saw this movie... It didn't turn out too well. And no, I don't know Sarah Connor.

    Another high altitude object shot down over Alaska.

    20mm at altitude goes a LONG way. And at that rate of fire, that's a lot of liability. One missle vs ~80 rounds. Besides, we foot the bill, so whatevs.

    Another high altitude object shot down over Alaska.

    The Rivet Joints were most definitely training sorties. TOPCT is the schoolhouse call sign. HOOVR is one of the ops squadrons, but they are both near a signals training range. I flew these in a previous life and have many many hours boring holes in the sky in that area.

    Dicken down the cops.

    This may be one of THE most short-sighted and (hopefully intentionally) asinine attempts at arguing a position I've seen since the last MSNBC clip I saw. Let's use an easy analogy here. You walk out and see your right rear tire sagging on the rim. You think, gee, it may be flat. I have some...

    The Fed jumps it another .5%

    That's the beauty of my situation, really. I WANT to move but don't HAVE to. I've been watching a 65 acre tract for a while. Might go down the build road when the price gets right. Figure there's going to be plenty of builders needing work here soon.

    Bubble is going to burst. Those HELOCs are gonna walk just like 08. And as someone that's been looking to relocate for a couple years, the market has been totally ridiculous.

    Mmmmm... you're making me salivate. These days I've been running more CAO Flathead 660s and Man O War Ruination 10th anniversary. Pretty good bang for the buck. And the embargo was probably the best thing that happened for the Nicaraguans.
