“Guns are bad! No one should have guns!” - Gawker

There are days that I miss working for Lockheed Martin, and as someone who directly contributed to the combat system aboard the USS Mason, today is one of them. AEGIS is a hell of a beast, and for all the bad parts about working for LM, that program is a shining beacon of hope, not just for the company, but for…

It’s insane. Hold on for an awesome ride!

In a lot of instances, it might just take some adjustment of the pedals. I learned to heel/toe on my 2006 Mustang GT, and pedal spacing and orientation was perfect. When I bought my 2016 Mustang GT with Performance Pack, I had to completely re-learn, as the Brembo brakes make the pedal travel extremely short and the…

I do, because I’m a Mets fan, but ONLY for that reason.

My 2016 Mustang GT/PP with Brembos often has a stiff, dead brake pedal after sitting for a few days. This would be normal, if the brake pedal was pumped up, but it’s kinda weird that it happens without pumping. I have to put the car in gear and move to get a softer pedal that has some feel. The car has actually…

I don’t understand the obsession with Yuengling. It’s bloody awful, and people drink it like it’s Chimay.

Back then, it was a quick buck to pay off Hulk Hogan.

I have wanted one of these cars since I first saw one. Maybe that single Power Ball ticket my wife bought yesterday will hit, and I’ll get my wish.

Something that happened almost 50 years ago hardly influences today’s environment.

I had a security guard and a half dozen ushers try to escort me out of a Phillies/Mets game (I’m a Mets fan, and was leading “Let’s go Mets!” chants) for screaming “Phuck the Phillies”. Dude rolled up on me and started grabbing me and telling me that I was being kicked out for being explicit, and that it was a family…

I was in the VAB just before they closed it to the public for assembly of SLS (live ordnance facility). Absolutely incredible. Glad your sister, and everyone else, is in the clear.

Came here to say this, was happy it was already said.

I was so much happier when Torch was writing his bullshit for other publications.

That’s not necessarily true. There’s only one yard that ASSEMBLES the carriers, true enough, but thousands of suppliers in various states provide sub-assemblies to various workshops to assemble larger sub-assemblies, which are then passed to build modules, which are then assembled into the final hull form.

I hate to agree with Trump supporters, but yeah, you’re a pretty shitty journalist.

Gawker has/had editors?

My buddy flies KC-10s for the USAFR, and stopped for beers one night after flying into Charleston AFB, on his way to deliver a fire truck to Germany. Same program, I guess...

Agreed. I wouldn’t doubt that it’s a Mach 1 with a version of the Roush quad-tipped exhaust or similar. Regardless, it sounds fan-fucking-tastic, and I want that exhaust for my 2016 GT.

I am! Good catch!
