Even in Scotland – perhaps especially in Scotland. The fun begins at about 0:35.
Share on Facebook (Yeah – I know it’s misspelled. The reason will become obvious soon.) The interwebs is, as we all know, a mighty dangerous place. Yesterday, I was putting together a PowerPoint presentation for our clients yesterday. (Don’t ask – boring environmental crap). I believe in peppering one’s PowerPoint with interesting pictures that are germane to [...] That you’ve probably never heard about…Project Azorian Here’s the book if you want to read all about it… http://www.amazon.com/Project-Azorian-CIA-Raising-K-129/dp/1591146909 Share on Facebook The F-22 Raptor I was privileged to see the F-22 Demo Team twice this weekend. If you have ever seen the video of the F-22 going through its routine, it DOES NOT do justice to the real thing. To see this huge fighter literally flip end over end like an aerobatic competition aircraft is [...] Here’s a time lapse of the building of the Hoover Dam Bypass…too cool. H/T Ace of Spades Maybe Fritz knows, are they going to shut down completly the road over the Hoover Dam? If so, get out there and drive across it while you can. Man that was one road that made me pretty [...] H/T JAWA Report 4 HUMVEE’s and approx 50 paratroopers jump into the darkness. Share on Facebook A single B-2 bomber releases 80 JDAM (Joint Direct Attack Munition (GPS Guided)) bombs on a target airfield in a single pass during a test. Share on Facebook Because everyone likes videos of weapons tests. Well, not everyone, but it’s cool as hell. Share on Facebook With a loving tip o’ the hat to milady for thinking enough to bug me at work (priorities), J. Geils Band (up yours, “embedding disabled”) and The Diamond’s finally entering the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (sure, just the nominee list, but c’mon, we inexplicably haven’t even seen them there yet, so please [...] God knows his politics are 180 degrees opposite of mine, but with our love of baseball being on the exact same page, I can more than live with Bill Lee’s love of Castro and socialism. Even though he spent a good portion of it knocking the capitalistic system which gave him a wider platform for [...] A Bakersfield, CA woman — a doctor — tried to break into her “on-again/off-again boyfriend’s house last Wednesday — hereafter known as Ash Wednesday. From AOL News: A doctor involved in an “on-again, off-again” relationship apparently tried to force her way into her boyfriend’s home by sliding down the chimney, police said Tuesday. Her decomposing [...] Airplanes are, by their nature, awfully beautiful things. And, fixed-wing airframes are far more attractive than their rotary-winged cousins. An Apache is scary as hell, but it’s not very sexy (sorry Outlaw). So, herewith is my top five sexiest fixed-wing aircraft of all time. For the record: I am none too committed to this [...] General (ret.) Fred Franks – 2008 Not a new book (published in 1997) but new to me and a fascinating read, Into the Storm: A Study in Command was co-authored by Tom Clancy and General (ret.) Fred Franks. Franks, if you’re not familiar with him, led VII Corps during the First Gulf [...] The Sikorsky X-2 demonstrator set a new world speed record for rotary-winged aircraft today: 258 mph. The old record of 249 mph, set by a Westland Lynx (British, in other words) had stood for 24 years. Say it with me: U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!!! No tail rotor, special anti-vibration technology, a pusher propeller and coaxial [...] Share on Facebook If you haven’t been there, allow me to suggest a trip to shorpy.com. Shorpy is a vast interwebs repository of vintage photographs. Not photos of great historical significance mind you, but rather pictures of everyday life. Most are very old, from the 19th century and early twentieth, but there some as late as the [...] Via BLACKFIVE comes this link and video regarding the Memorial Day speech of 1LT Dan Berschinski in his hometown of Peachtree, GA. The LT lost both his legs in an IED blast in Afghanistan. Share on Facebook |
