Buy a boat, get a job, join the Curtis Lemay flying club, learn the local history , continue my masters program on line, volunteer at some military museum (probably the SAC museum). Join a gun club , and most dangerous of all, try to teach my wife to shoot (again[:(][X(]). I'll keep busy. And lots of road trips to a part of the country I've never lived in before. [:)]

Masters online, huh?

Yep! Military history! [:)]

OK , Mars. But the "cannon " is dead. Enterprise damaged it, and the new "Star Trek" killed it! [X(]

Maybe, but since no one watched Enterprise, it doesnt count. [:D]

Right...everyone just watched T'Pol......[:'(]
So true ... [:'(]

Both are quite tasty.....so therefore, no.[:D]

By that measurement, a good filet mignon should post genius-level results on IQ tests. [:'(]

They have lakes and rivers in Nebraska that one can use pleasure craft on. How else do you think they can irrigate the corn?

Rain? [:'(]



Damned city kids, bet you think chocholate milk comes from a black cow?[:D]

I suspected you had a masochistic streak, Steve, but I didnt realize it was so serious. [X(][:D]


And I liked it too! So there![:D]

Hi all,

Oh my...


US$3.3bn for this?!?!?! [X(]


USS Zumwalt (DDG-1000)

It takes a lot of money to make a ship that ugly! It's a good thing that the USN cancelled the program. That pig's too ugly to live! [:D]


Steve, but aren't there 3 of those ordered and paid already (and not canceled entirely - just not the 32 planned at the beginning)?



They will be US$3.3bn a piece! [X(][X(][X(]


Leo "Apollo11"

Correct. Funny story , my wife's old boss, Admiral Barry McCullougha (he was battle group commander of the Enterprise battlegroup, as salty a seadog as Halsey) had to sell the 32 ships to congress. Then had to go back and unsell them![X(][:(]

Not a happy man. And he had a most creative way with swearing when angry! The man should have been a drill sargent![:D]

It's nice to have variety in ancestors (that old genetic thing ya know! [:D]). I'm a boring 75% Quebecois,with a quarter Irish contaminataion thrown in.[:D] At least that's what my dad used to say to taunt my late mother , who was very proud of he Irish heritage. He used to love to play "Blazing saddles" for that particular scene where (politically correct version) they would let in the 1st two ethnic groups , but NO IRISH! That ALWAYS had her out of her chair screaming at the TV. [:D]

I'm starting to see where you get your sense of humor from. [:D]

Yes , unfortunately Dad. I got his looks, voice and really wired sense of humor. From mom , I got her extremely violent and hot temper, and incessent desire for revenge!

So youre.......Russian? [X(][:D]

No , but if you read the rest of the story , my ancestor got just about everything else wrong too! [:D]

Hey, look at the bright side. If you ancestor hadnt been so gullible, you'd be Canadian. Granted, you'd have health care, but thats too steep a price to pay. [:D]
With their national health care, aren't there still some Canadians waiting for MRIs and surgeries from the War of 1812?

Eh. Cute girls are a dime a dozen on the tube. But there wasnt a plotline or character in that show that ever induced me to give a crap.

Exactly. Sailing in a corn field. That'll be different ! [:D]

They have a lot of alien abductions in that part of the country too, as I recall. [X(]

Whoever serves on those will have to be psychiatrically pre-screened to identify only those with a complete lack of aesthetic sense. [:D]

AHA! Another opportunity for the marketers! THEY could provide rationale for you to produce / give a crap!
