Yes, they are all nuclear ships.

The Big E is one of those special memories I had as a child/young teenager. It was the pride of the fleet This picture will forever be etched in my memory: E=mc2

Spot on. 5 star post here!

Waaay off here bro. 1976 was a dangerous time in F1. By the turbo era, cars had gotten much safer. Since Senna's unfortunate crash in 1994 at Imola, no drivers have been killed. Time to bring back some sturm und drang to F1.

I agree with Niki. The cars would be much more exciting with more power. Having watched the turbo era with cars over 1,000 hp in qualifying, the racing was very exciting. I would love wider tires and more aggressive aerodynamics. Once upon a time, we had this. And, since the safety of the cars is infinitely better…

Oh my, I am love with JDM Celicas. Kind of like a Japanese version of the Mustang. They look pretty bitchin' with those fender mounted side mirrors.

Tyler, the advent of precision guided munitions, both bombs and artillery have changed the face of modern warfare. Being able to precisely zero in on a target not only saves a waste of munitions, but it also reduces collateral damage. When I think of all the bombs dropped in WW2 that missed the mark as well as in…

Pretty cool that your grandpa knew him. I am surprised your dad won't let you read the letters. However, some people don't want to revisit the war. My dad, who was in WW2. would barely talk about his time on a destroyer in the Pacific. His ship was in some major campaigns, but I could barely pry anything out of him.…

Umm, my comment was meant for Box1813, not you. He was moaning about the fact that Clint might interject his viewpoints into the film. Gee, given the Liberal, Leftist, Atheist media and entertainment system, funny how just one film can cause people to overreact. What is really embarrassing is the number of people who…

Fascinating article Tyler. During the Viet Nam war, I followed events closely, even though I was a teenager. I especially followed the air war as I love planes and combat and kept up with both the Navy and Air Force. There was a bridge [Paul Doumer-linked Hanoi with Haiphong on the Red River] in North Viet Nam that…

Thanks for sharing. I was ready for Viet Nam as a very immature 18 year old in 1970. I ended up not going, but the sniping skills of Carlos Hathcock were legendary for my generation. Kind of a modern day Daniel Boone. I learned a lot myself about him from a guy who was a LRRP in Viet Nam.

Hardly. Sounds to me like you have an ax to grind with Seb. If you know anything at all about F1, the car has to suit the driver or there won't be a winning hand. This has been proven over and over again.

I felt this was coming. Something has been amiss this year with Seb and Red Bull. Maybe there is still a remnant of bad feelings going back to when Seb passed Webber at Malaysia. In any event, I am not surprised by this. People knocked Hamilton for going to Mercedes in 2012, but look how that has played out. Ferrari…

Good synopsis of Hathcock in Viet Nam:

Speaking of outstanding snipers, check out Carlos Hathcock. a sniper during the Viet Nam war. Cut from the same cloth as Chris Kyle. Hathcock had the largest bounty put on him of any sniper in the war. In one incident, the Viet Cong's best sniper was sent to take Hathcock out. Hathcock actually killed the guy with a…

Hopefully, many. Gee, I wonder why 'ol Clint would complain about how things are going...

This is scary because it is how we got in trouble back in 2008. People buying cars that are really out of their price range, but because of longer financing, are in fact, getting in over their heads. That new car cache wears off after the first year and if the economy goes south again, it will have a catastrophic…

These pictures alone should be enough to persuade the USAF to deploy more. Talk about able to take a licking and keep on ticking.

Somehow, I see those deep cash reserves that Jalopnik has coming out to play and rescuing the Nurburgring. Some turns will be renamed, Hardigee, George, Okulski, Orlove and Ballaban. This will be a great place to try out all the new cars that Jalopnik has at its disposal.

I have to politely disagree. Part of the attraction of an airshow is the sound and fury of the jets. I have seen both the Blues and Thunderbirds and can definitely tell you that the T38 was lame in comparison to the Phantom. I have seen the Snowbirds and Red Arrows and while their aerobatics are amazing, they just…
