Imagine an AH-64 Longbow dogfighting with a Lotus.

Imagine no longer.

I hope this doesn't kill his bandwidth, but it's possibly the coolest
Apache footage ever taken.

I'm on the waiting list for the Elise... allegedly I'll have it by sometime
in July. Awesome car.

The whole thing with the Apache was kinda dumb though. And I didn't like the
snarky remark about Americas shooting their allies either.

[Sounds of envy and gnashing teeth as author glances at bank balance....]

know when you might need it.

Subjecting our American friends to Jeremy Clarkson?! I don't know how
they're going to take it, but they sure won't take it kindly...

Clarkson...he cracks me up, but to be fair, probably the first or
second video from Top Gear that I saw was him getting taken for a ride
by a Lambo test driver who scared him to death.

He's probably remembering his acrobatic ride in the back of an F-15E
out of Mountain Home a few years back. The audio went something like
this......

"Here we are in the back of the US's premier ground
attack.....ahhhhh.....my ....gooood..BLEEP///BLEEEP............stop
it, please

Followed by a grey looking Clarkson being helped from the Mudhen with
a very soiled poopy suit :-)

That kind of memory can stick with you.
