Nope not a pilot! Pilots were a dime a dozen, but only 1 crew chief per kc135 and that was me. It was all mine and loving to fly I flew 95% of when it flew. Mostly sat in the jump seat between pilots...
Well..... I was in the Air Force in the early 60's. I was riding a friend's Vespa down to the flight line to preflight my aircraft at about 3am. I eased out onto the road and before an "oh ****" I...
Me too! Mine from oldtimers.
I'm out for 8, 11, 18. But then I was raised in Bakersfield, the South America of the big valley. Had a two capgun outfit for the Range Rider.
"What????? Dad's trusty 45 got passed down?"
Yep, quite a ceremony. My son and both grandsons as I told them my story about dad's Colt. When finished, I asked my son what he'll call it and he...
Don't remember age, but as a young pup in grammar school having bb "fights" with others in neighborhood. Everyone wore Levi's, but they were the old type you stood up in the corner. Rule was below...
Thanks Bawanna. Yes she was understanding about my ND. I had a laser cartridge for the 45 that would light for a few milliseconds when the trigger pulled. Loved it and found the same muscle memory...
I hung a target over mine. Still there.
That guy looks like holding that monster is easy until you zoom in on his left hand. His smile hides his growl saying "Take the dawn picture!".
Ours was a bit smaller screen with really rounded corners. TV kept business hours coming on after daylight and signing off at 10pm with the national anthem and big flag waving, followed by signal...
Naw, they train mules not to poop at night!
My uncle made a cannon out of a 12'' iron pipe with.a screw on cap drilled for a fuse. He'd set a fire ******* (didn't know krack-er is a bad word) with fuse exposed thru the hole, drop in a marble...
Does in military sense. Imagine the military cost to transport to USA, inventory and store forever. Never to be issued or sold. I remember them dumping hundreds of good jeeps overboard when returning...
I really, truly dislike Joe, But... Remember the last war the U.S. won was WW2. We couldn't beat North Korea (they had China help) and settled on a parallel to get out. We got beat in Vietnam...
Dang I love this thread. All the way from Strategic Air Command when I was 8 to now, sigh. I totally fell in love with June Allison in that film and cried with her when she got the sad news. Then I...
Ha, young whippersnappers didn't even mention June Allison. Shame.....
Agree, with the exception that Larry Elder will likely replace Nesom in a few months. Nelson has blocked his running using the same law that was ruled unconstitutional when used against Trump. Elder...
I tried it working for the phone company while locating existing burried cables crossing fields before trenching nearby. The old timer teaching me said it's a very definite pull. It really is and...
Have to add an amen to that one. Been confined to house for 16mths now. I don't watch TV (couldn't hear it if I tried); stopped reading news (all on closed loop and upsetting). Instead, I read couple...
Yeah, I gave him 6 months, wife said 3. Thinking now she's smarter than me. Of course I didn't figure them giving him the drugs.
......Hope they have somebody that keeps the nuclear codes safe.....
Don't worry, Biden already handed the football and codes to Kamala!
Really liked mine also. Found that regular practice made trips to the range more successful. However, just a caution.. Make damn sure you separate practice away from loaded guns. A friend of mine...
Pelosi made them "sign it before they read it" to pass ObamaCare, so nothings changed there.
That's the one! Still excellent, for me because i considered hard (before seeing this) of trying it out. Gave up the idea when I saw the prices were right up there with human food. Still love the...
