    Blue Angels @ Pensacola 6/12/08

    Land your happy ass on the beach NLT 8 in the morning. After that, have fun trying to get a parking spot anywhere remotely close to the beach. I'd recommend taking fort pickens road about a 1/4 mile down, park on the shoulder of the road and take a cooler of beer and SPF 1 million for the day...

    Where to live in Meridian

    Come join the Northwood mafia. But, if old school hardwood floors and 15 foot ceiling lofts are your flavor, contact Downtown Properties (601-484-7406). Very cool places but downtown looks like an urban warzone for a couple blocks where they are. I would have done that (I like that kinda sh!t)...

    How much math do youreally need?

    "Mathematical Masturbation"... A phrase echoed in certain instrument simulators. All you need to know is the complex interaction of 60 & 10. And at LEAST the first 20 numbers in the string of pi. This helped me remember http://pi.ytmnd.com

    NFO Jobs Post-USN?

    Hmmm, your bio says you want to be a space cowboy... More "mission specialist's" than pilots on those things don't you think? But, if you go 'FO, there is a HUGE market in the contracting side of the house. Far Far down the road for you young man.

    VICTORY in IRAQ?? What is Victory?? Is there any substitute for VICTORY??

    Victory = Doing China's dirty work so they don't cash in their T-bills, A strategic chess piece in the Middle East, Pro-"I like money and the things it buys", a continued de-valuation of the dollar to bring smaller countries in the region to the world market, and control of the Oil to repay the...

    Keep a look-out for this SMA

    Having seen the crash site myself this weekend (Was staying pretty close to where it happened, saw the guardrail and distance to the water), and the how they found this poor kid, something doesn't add up... Hopefully there isn't more of a tragedy here than the tragic face value of it.

    How to Dress when meeting Officer Recruiter for the first time

    The one thing that being an Officer and trying to learn to fly not from the back seat has taught me is that professionalism, striving for excellence, and trying to make yourself better than you were the last time you flew will only benefit numero uno. If you don't care that you fucked something...

    P-3 JO Retention

    Contract Maintenance, i.e., no screamin' seamen working on the plane anymore. P-3's will be going through some dying pains in the next few (10) years. After that, you'll be seeing guys putting TACAIR as their 2nd choice. The '37 is going to be sweet. Until then, everyone gets to take it on the...

    Buy house in Hawaii?

    hicentral... Thats the best for sure. Married is a toss up. Single I would rent. You will be paying more on the southside of the island. Avoid anything West of H-3 unless its Aiea/Pearl City.

    Bringin back the old school one sideburn at a time! It's up to YOU future JO's to subtly fight the 'corporatization' of our great Navy. Follow (bend) the rules, get wasted, but, unlike our predecessors perhaps, you have to be much more smart about it. I.e., It's okay to be upside down in the...
