Caught "Bridges at Toko Ri" today on AMC.

Good, good stuff.

"Where do we get men like that?"

Not from your gene pool.


Snort! Yeah, we expect great things to come from Tarver's genetic
poultry experiments!

He's already got some of his offspring signed up for College, dontcha
Splaps Boy?

Heh. Tarver slagging me over a Bridges at Toko-Ri quote. That's
*funny*,
considering he's insulted both Art Kramer and Ed Rasimus, two people who
have most assuredly been there and done that. As if Tarver would know
what
kind of man it takes to do the job they've done.

Ah well, thanks for replying to his post; at least I got to see what
sort of
drivel he spewed...

Ask him about...

...how the WWII Avenger bomber was powered by jet engines
...how pitot tubes are only used on turbine planes
...how mud wasps clog pitot tubes with alarming regularity
...how the pitot tube is actually the P1T0 tube
...how spoilers create negative lift
...how wings on racecars are actually spoilers
...how Budweiser is the best-selling beer in Australia
...how a non-existant section of TWA800 was the problem
...how Kapton is a conductor, not an insulator

how Budweiser is the best-selling beer in Australia

LOL!!!............as if.............

Well, to be fair, Fosters isn't much better.

Cheers...Craig
