Even I'll admit they're spending a bit too much. And I don't understand Steinbrenner's infatuation with that overbloated toad Wells.

Oh yeah, isn't LI mostly WASP?

Giuliani was a Republican and he was popular. NYC isn't nearly as flaming liberal cheese eating surrender monkey as people think. More so after we had a few planes smash into our buildings.

I've yet to find a funny dog pic. And I think mine's photoshopped. I HOPE it's photoshopped. Poor kitty. Anyway, isn't it a pretty good show of force to keep anybody who's thinking we're too tied up in Iraq from getting too aggressive? I think a show of force, if effective as a deterrent...

Dug it up, it's called Summer Pulse 2004, so if it hasn't happened yet I guess it will soon. Seven carrier groups to conduct joint operations with Taiwan. Jeez, imagine 7 CVBGs in the same neck of the woods, ready to rock. Now THAT's tax dollars at work.

Coincidentally, I remember hearing a few weeks ago that we plan to surge 7 CVBGs there for a Pacific exercise...anybody else hear about it?

It did suck hardcore. I would've walked out if I hadn't already fallen asleep.

Pakistan and India did it behind our backs...it's not impossible for others to do it. I'd say the DPRK is up there along with the former Iraq as one of those places where you really just can't know jack$hit. The thing is, they don't even need nukes to prevent an invasion. They've got about...

Oh man Mike W that's an AWESOME avatar! $hit, drool shorted out my keyboard!

Stealth never really made a plane pretty.

Huh. Weird. Now I've got two pubs completely contradicting each other...great. Thanks for the update.

Vette when did you read this? I'm pretty sure all Luftwaffe MiG-29s got transferred to Poland by now.

"Bombers are now superior to fighters in that role because they can carry a larger amount and a greater variety of ordnance, and can stay on station longer." Whoever he got that from is a moron...or a bomber advocate who's good with phrasing things "just right." They wanna start basing...

I'm so slow...

Think you could turn this into a sticky thread? Kinda like something to pass down in AW throughout the ages for SNAs? Except it would be a pain in the ass for you to have to update it constantly I guess.

Where do most of you guys go to shoot? And did you pick it up before/after commissioning?

Whaddya know? Diplomats DO have a sense of humor. http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040702/ap_on_re_as/powell_village_people

Stroke your p#nis, not your ego. Sorry, I just had to say that.

Probably for shock value. It's pretty insulting to call an Arab man a woman, a lot more than it is here. Even more so for pigs since it's an unclean animal.

That IS sweet. Too bad the first one for the Cube wasn't like it. Guess they finally gave into the "we hate freaky link crowd."

Not disagreeing, but I'd say most people who enlist don't hear about the inactive part of the contract. At least it's not something that's made crystal clear from the start.

It sure is, but did it crash your GPA too? :icon_wink

Guess that's what the -22s are for. "The exercise, in which US F-15Cs were said to have been defeated more than 90 per cent of the time in direct combat exercises against the IAF, is causing US Air Force officials to re-evaluate the way the service trains its fighter pilots while bolstering...

Can you clarify? It seems like you're saying you have trouble finding the magnitude...but the magnitude of a vector is the sqrt of the sum of each vector component squared. You can AIM me if you need help...I'm working on green's and stokes' ATM so i could use the review.

Cuz napalm sticks to kids...

If you'd ever actually been near one of those riots, you'd know that they were NOT your average sports riots. I wouldn't call completely taking over a public academic facility over, then barricading yourself inside(my friend's brother claimed it was a great time to score a quickie with radical...

...$25 per year? That's a typo right?

There hasn't been serious college rioting since...about the early 90's. And most of those kids were from the crappy schools. ;) Maybe it's just not cool anymore. Ah I miss the faint smell of tear gas in the summer.

yeah i noticed he doesnt have "I'm Rick James biatch" anymore. ;)

Bud, I do seem to recall that the NAMI regs gave an upper limit of 140 for the "high" number(systolic? don't remember what it's called). I had 160 once and was freaked. If for some odd reason you want to RAISE your bp, eat any of those cup of noodle thingies. I know one had like 350mg of...

Btw, what's gonna be the deal with EP-3s? Are the 737s gonna be replacing those as well? And i wonder how the 737 build would've done against a kamikaze Chinese fighter.

lol, you know there are certain airlines where I swear that looks are part of the selection process for stewardesses.

If your future college accepts it...AP Physics C...8 ugly science credits done before you hit the campus. And I hear the grading is the most generous of the APs.

Ah, what happened to the other 2 ASTB files?

He doesn't know the cheat. Oh such deprivation. www.homestarrunner.net...I mean com.

I'm just curious, why's it so unbelievable? I actually got that number twice...once from the AF, the other time from Standard and Poor's annual report's LMT section back in 2002 for an econ project. My econ is rusty, but the figures indicated that without further F-22 buy cutbacks(as of...

Wow that guy sounds just like a high school friend of mine.

Doesn't the F-22 already have JDAM carrying capability? And isn't JDAM a "strapon," so that the pilot needs nothing but GPS coordinates...adding little to nothing to the basic airframe? Also, I'm pretty sure that it can take 2 fuel tanks and 4 AMRAAMs on the externals, in addition to a load of 2...

Whoa, C-17s? Those thing cost approx 200M apiece, varying slightly depending on the FY you choose. In contrast, the Raptor at full rate production is 90-100M isn't it? I'm pretty sure the 180M+ price tag is LRIP only. I'm too lazy to check right now but I'm pretty sure of this...

Wait, but according to the occasional jet guy who drops in, we needed the Super Hornet as a stopgap b/c the Tomcats were/are falling apart, while Hornet C's have been flying more than planned. Without the Super Bug the Navy would be without a new fighter-bomber for at least...10-15 years I...

What happened to GunsVF-103 or whatever? That guy was the funny SHEE-IT! And his website was awesome!

Excluding the crap in Iraq, do we really want MORE troops? Seems to me more troops aren't actually suited for the war on terror. Shouldn't the focus be on intel, SOF, and power projection? I mean, yeah you need troops to beat back the insurgents in Iraq and to establish order. But outside of...

Ehehe, the advice is appreciated but it's a bit too late. I put this up an year ago. I'm already at Cornell and in the College Program. And yeah, the public schools at Cornell are sweet for the mids. You get the Ivy name, easier(supposedly) classes, high HOT girl to guy ratio, cheap tuition...

Must..resist...temptation...to make crack. But seriously, it seems to be the general trend. I guess women would rather be in the Chair Force than be on a deployed ship full of horny sailors.

Oooh...I'm DEFINITELY stayin' out of this one.

In NYC, I've NEVER heard it called pop. It's always coke for coke, soda for generic fizzy drink.

its certainly a possibility, but no guarantees on the likelihood though. All I know is if it goes through you're set to get commissioned.

C. Program has an advanced standing program, where you get all your gear books, etc. and you get paid a stipend like the scholarship kids but no tuition. However, you will still get commissioned at the end of the program. Some other people mentioned stories of ppl doing college program...

Err...I wouldn't know personally. Every other 4C is on scholarship though, and I'm not yet b/c of reasons beyond my control-or so I'd like to think. ;)

Really? Heard a rumor Berkeley mids don't wear their uniforms on campus...please enlighten us when you get there on that matter, we're all very interested. And I'll be perfectly honest...if like most people you have a strong dislike of seeing the ground covered in snow for 5 straight...
