As I trans man and I feel downright invasive using the women’s bathroom. I feel like guilty because that’s your space. I’m a dude and look like it. The only thing this law does is to put a man exactly in the women’s bathroom.

They aren’t, but I was assuming since the comparison would be between conventional and railgun-fired projectiles from a ship on the sea the fact that the speed of sound isn’t constant shouldn’t matter too much for a ballpark estimation.

It’s really scary when you realize Kim Kardashian is the smart one in that relationship.

Well, I don’t know about 6000 years, but he definitely lived over 2000 years ago. He got a picture with Jesus. I’ve seen it.

I met a TSgt at the school house where I was teaching. She was thin, great smile, disarmingly quick witted and smart. As an NCO, this appeared to be a viable opportunity according to the UCMJ! Then I learned she was there on a tour with some 2Lts from controller school. She was about to start OTS and become one of…

Hey now! You gotta respect them! They got 2 confirmed kills during the Iran/Iraq war! (Probably threw their carpet at them though) lol

I have a theory that Tom Cruise isn’t really a very good actor. Stay with me here. In every movie where he’s supposed to be a good guy he’s insufferable. A real douche-sloth. But when he plays an asshole he’s actually pretty good. I think this is because he’s an asshole in real life and just lets the beast out of the…

Flight test aircraft tend to be devoid of fancy electronic displays mainly for safety reasons. All the steam gauges will still function if the aircraft loses electrical power. Things like the airspeed and altimeter are plumbed directly to the pitot tube with air lines. No fancy electronics.

Good idea!

If we want to go down that road, I should be free to walk into your house and raid your fridge when you aren't home. Because freedom. I hope you bought the good beer.

That fella, I don’t know, I don’t like him.

Well. you see he was discharged but no one told him so he kept flying, him and his red stapler.

OPSEC, I would guess, given how close hold this was. A large flight of B-52s launching out Barksdale was (and I assume still is) not that odd. Any number of plausible cover stories could apply if anyone asked. Once you forward deploy them (especially with all that advanced ordnance) it’s not that hard to connect the…

Seriously. I have an interstate commute and run @ 75mph on a couple of stretches. I was passed by one of these on a downhill part. That’s someone with a death wish.

The resemblance is uncanny.

Now you have me thinking the crew are painting nudes of each other below decks.

I’m glad we all agree that it’s most definitely a ship, at least...

Traded my 1987 Bronco for a 1988 BMW 750iL. The Bronco ran fine but had what I thought was a faulty oil pressure sensor. This was in about 2006, the first time gas hit $3/gallon. I couldn’t hardly give away a 10mpg SUV. I was down to about $1500. The guy was asking about $3k for the BMW. We traded even. The BMW had…
