Careful what you wish for!

I didnt know either Starship Troopers or Robocop were "a rather stinging satire of fascism" until someone told me. I liked them both just for the action.

They already beat you to the punch.

I think the "easiest" to implement would be the "ground-based mobile laser used for blinding adversary reconnaissance satellites". You have troubles with the atmosphere, but unlimited power supply.

The US military may soon declassify a secret space weapon.

Heres the restaurant list for where we were staying. Our favorite was the Italian place.

Astronomers Capture Some of the Most Detailed Galaxy Photos Yet.

Ah, similar concept to these bait rings I used to use. The minnows swim into the rings trying to get to the ribbon and it becomes stuck around their body. Just lower and raise.

Heh, thats exactly the approach I took this vacation. All the restaurants on the resort are already included in the price so every night I would scan the menu of whatever place we were eating at and specifically choose something that I wouldnt normally order for myself. I tried a snapper dish, and it was alright. Im not a huge fish eater but shellfish and crustaceans can GET IN MY BELLY. Aside, they have the best goddamn fresh fruit in the world in Mexico. Seemed like they were picking it off a tree right out back and serving it to my plate it was so fresh and sweet.

How does one catch a squid? On a hook or using a net / trap?

I appreciate the details...if I ever come across it Ill give it a try. Speaking of carpaccio, I tried both beef and salmon carpaccio in Mexico. They were alright but I wouldnt go out of my way to order either again.

I was on CVN-65 and 72.

I would totally try ostrich. Does it really taste like chicken / turkey? Are the legs and thighs "fattier" than the breast? Do they turn the wings into a giant hotwing?

HUZZAH! Happy Birthday!

Happy to see Preacher is doing well! Go poke him with a stick until he comes on and says hi.

That got me thinking, what could be my midlife crisis? Motorcycles scare the hell out of me. I dont want by body shoveled up from the side of the highway. Nice sports car? Nah. Side girlfriend? Hahahahaha. Golfing? Its "ok" but its really just me and the boys having a good time. Maybe I need more hummingbird feeders? I love watching those little rascals and one even landed yesterday!

Back when I was on a Westpac deployment, and while we were just floating around, they put on a firepower demonstration for the crew. As I understand it this is a fairly rare event and we all went to the flight deck to watch. They slowly ramped up by firing off the CIWS a few times and had an F-14 fire a Sidewinder at a flare. Then other ships in the battle group would pass aport and fire the 5" guns and machinegun fire (no missiles unfortunately). The grand finale was BB-62 (or was it BB-63?) firing the 16" guns in a broadside...it was awe inspiring.

My friend says, good point but still better than getting even older.

I would punch a fur seal in the face to be in my 30's again. Anyone know a good vampire? Asking for a friend.

Holy moly!
