Good, bad or indifferent, if you know how to tell a story, and can do it in your own style, do that. Don't try to copy someone else's style, unless that is for parody or part of the story. An omage is alright, (Dang, I wish I could spell today) but if you have a story that you want to tell, it's almost always best…

Eh, the movie didn't matter. Doing what he did, THAT matters. Kind neat that you still came across with the sweetest snark I've ever read! (Never thought I'd be saying something like THAT either!)

Also, by reversing the engines, you make the rudder effectively useless. If the engines had individual control of the propeller shaft speeds, he should have gone full ahead on the Port shaft, 2/3rd's ahead on the middle shaft, and 1/3rd ahead on the Starboard shaft. This would have aided him in swinging clear of the…

The Prinz Adalbert photo, nobody was 100% sure was the right iceberge, but this other one, you can see where something did some crushing damage to it, even after 2 or 3 days.

Welp, looks like this will have a high Baysplosion Quotient. Maybe a 4.5 out of 10. (BaySplosion Quotient is a composit number of explosions, gunfigths or other gratuitous violence for every 10 minutes of film.)

have to wonder how long it will be before they incorporate a more hardened version of these systems into railgun rounds? I know we already have smart guns and ammo for snipers, and it likely won't be long before the cost of these systems drops enough to put it in weapons and ammo for spec ops groups but only the…

It's beginning to look as though the Race to Mars isn't going to be between the US and some other country, but between the countries of the world and the corporations. I hate to admit it, but I'm rooting for the companies. At least THEY seem to have a plan and the funding to get the job done!

Hey, I wouldn't mind picking up a demiled Striker or a Humvee. Where do I sign up?

Tyler, that's not a new hanger, it's the new duty-free store for the alien visitors that come by to refuel and receive themselves.

I've lost three cats in my life so far. One from Feline AIDS, one from a bad infection, and one from a stroke. Although I had more than a decade with each, (I owned them all at the same time, it tore me up inside when each died. I miss them even though I have a new cat, I still miss them.

Supercarriers in favor of smaller carriers. At least I THINK it was you. It was some weeks ago. I had suggested instead, a combined setup using both supercarriers for larger missions and small carriers for lower key missions. Kind of like using Litoral Cutters instead of Destroyers for smaller, more targeted…

And here you wanted to mothball them...

Strap some sharks onto the launch pylons of this plane and you have a .... Wait for it!... Sharknado!

And shuts the refrigerator door, casting the room back into darkness...

"The one thing I always hated about Santa Clara... All the damned vampires..."

Dude, for immersive games like that, it might be best to set up in the kitchen, or near a bathroom, for, ah, natural necessities...

As long as they don't decide to invade Russia in winter, the they should be fine!

Wonder if they make an all wheel drive version? THAT, with a good traction control system, would be WORTH driving in Baha!

The point is, these guys collided, (Lucky the one guy manged to land both planes) the F-5's here didn't. They came, probably within inches of it, but they didn't collide.

Holy Feck Monkies Pilot-Man! Now THAT'S about as close as I've EVER seen two planes come in mid flight without actually impacting one another! I'd put that at about a Pucker Factor of at LEAST 8.9 to 9.3!
