I don't care what anybody says, this is a great country when we can fly space shuttles on the backs of 747's around our major cities just for fun and photo ops!

USA! USA! USA!

Gotta agree with you 100% there. That is a cool shot, and this is great country. Any country that has restaurants where the condiments are free, and where the toilet paper is nice and thick, is a great country. [:D]

Many people born here and have never been anywhere else can be really quite spoiled and have no idea just how well they have it, especially during rough periods.

Last June, while picking up a rafting trip at Hecla Junction - a major rafting put in and take out on the Arkansas River (which has very nice, clean restrooms maintained by the park service), a European rafting guest commented that the USA was the only country wealthy enough to build restrooms in the middle of nowhere. I am with you Sir...

I especially loved the "STATE Welcome Center" along the interstates.

You are really blessed to live in that country! [&o]

So on one page T has been refered too as a goat, a bear and a troll. Ah, all in a days work. Continue nothing to see here.

Kind regards,

Rasmus

I don't think that T qualifies as any of the above, well maybe an Old Goat, but not today. What he was up-to was stating that this post was going to attract our Trolling personalities. [:-]

Don´t get me wrong, it is a beautiful and memorable sight.

But actually I would have been far more impressed, had NASA been able to get a replacement vehicle ready and operational before flying circles over major cities
showing museum pieces.

As things are, it just makes me sad. Salute, Enterprise.

You would have to discuss that with those made the posts concerning that. I merely pointed out the fact. Those that worked hard on that should get the credit. If u wana discuss the finner points it was actually a shitty bear.
I guess u'll have to discuss with T whether he is old or not, or an old goat for that matter and if so, when and where.


Kind regards,
