wow! would you look at dat, sun!

When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. And that one sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, and then sank into the swamp. But the…

It isn’t a shot at her. They can coexist and we are all better for it. This shameful media will make red meat out of a vegan buffet. My ire isn’t aimed at you Rafi, great article. Just disappointed with the fact that this is the time we should all be lined up together to put that orange asshole in his place and I…

Market price can still be CP.

Man, of all the times I’ve seen the drunk outtakes - I’d never actually seen the finished version.

There won’t be enough robot maintenance jobs to replace the jobs the robots took over. And most of the people doing the kind of jobs robots will be able to do soon-ish (warehouse, driving, fast food, etc.) are not qualified for programming or engineering jobs.

I wonder if he was as wrecked doing that commercial as he was with the wine commercial he did in the States?

They won’t be replaced. They will be accumulated as a fraction. One guy will oversee the work formerly done by 100 and be paid the same as 3. 97% of those jobs won’t be replaced.

You just know that the Air Force will come up with reasons that they can’t do ground support with their expensive, shiny new toy. That’s a major reason I’d like to see the A-10 keep going, albeit with upgrades to protect against MANPADS.

So basically, it’s a whiskey ad on two wheels?

I’ve been working the F-35 program for years. When I started, I had a program manager tell me, "The F-35 wasn't designed to be the best fighter ever, it was designed to be the best program ever."

First rule of government spending: “Why have one, when you can have two at twice the price?”

Yet somehow they are perfectly fine for active operations and deployment.

Vietnam was our last war with reluctant conscripts who still did a great job the majority of the time. My hats off to anyone in the Armed Services.

I think this is what people don’t understand - you don’t have to actually be a combat soldier to be affected by it. I think this is particularly true of Vietnam, because for most people, their only experience is watching films and in many films the support arms are usually stereotyped as the mildly unpleasant…

hey, give the WSO some credit too. That mark was a team effort.

He probably clenched so hard he shat diamonds.

I was a REMF in Vietnam, way back in 1971. You are the first person who has ever thanked me for having supported someone like yourself. I was stationed near the air base at Da Nang and was still there when all hell broke loose during the withdrawal in 1972. I was put in charge of the in/out processing center for the…

I figured it was a scar caused by the friction of the giant brass balls of the crew of the tanker dragging down the runway.

The mark on the runway isn’t from the f4, it’s a result of the pilot’s pants finally exploding.
