How about UFO - United Fruitcakes Organization?

Dan, U. S. Air Farce, retarded



HO HO, HA HA. God you're witty. Did you retire as an E-2 by any chance?

pacplyer

What would make you say that?
By the way I have met a retired E-1. He was medically retired due to
service
related injuries.

[Note: now that you have printed more than a one line slam, I'm being
careful to keep in relevant material. Is that what your objection is?
Did I take your one-liner out of context?]

Well... you like to call people fruitcakes and loons or regulate their
free-speech right to use profanity, but then I see no postings from
you that would lead me to believe that you've ever done anything but
scrub the aeroclub latrine. Typing in "U. S. Air Force" in spread out
letters hoping someone will mistake you for a pilot ....is my guess of
what an E2 would do. ;-)

Am I right?

I called no one a loon, the word was used by me in a thread involving bird
puns. Please pay attention.

Gee, then I went to the wrong college. Maybe I should try to get my
money back. You posted the loon insult right after I made an
off-color joke which you probably find "[un]civil". Do I have to
include it in the body here, or do you think anyone's capable of
checking that claim by going back in the thread? What… are we
submitting formal essays here? (just for you I won't even snip
anything here.)


I also never called anyone a fruitcake. Calling people names or using personal
insults is no way to debate or make a point.

How is suggesting people not using vulgar language an infringement on anyone's
"free speech?" I feel over use of vulgarity is an indication of a person's
inability to communicate in a civil manner.

Profanity, (which is something I'm sure you've never heard in the
service) is an indicator of emotion, and an important Usenet clue in
the absence of voice inflection and body language ... that's how I
use it. It can be an indicator of personality I agree.

Yes, I was enlisted, no I never implied or said I was a pilot. The "aeroclub"
on any military base is not a military function. Use of military personel as
you describe would be illegal.

I was born at Reese. My old man was asked by his boss to run the aero
club. He was an U. S. Air force officer. So this argument is bull.
That's not how the real world works.

In case you are wondering I was in aircraft maintenance, never faced
disciplinary actions and retired honourably.

Now, back to you. I seriously doubt you have any military experience.

While not enlisted or commissioned, I flew DOD MAC charters for four
years. I was in Desert Shield and Desert Storm as a Civilian
accompanying the armed forces. I was issued the "Civilian Desert
Shield and Desert Storm medal" by Ronald R. Fogleman, General, USAF,
Commander, Air Mobility Command on April 15, 1993. (big deal:
everyone got that who made at least one trip into the area of
hostilities.)

The fact
you have resorted to personal insult tells me you really are not worth talking
to.

Dan, U. S. Air Force, retired (and damned proud of it)


Refering to me as a loon is an insult. That's why I responded in
kind.
