PICTURE POST!

13 °C is okay -when you have on a pair of woollen knitted socks and your shirt has long sleeves... Here's what a widget on my phone tells me the weather is going to be the next couple of days:

​

At least it might stop raining...

 

We'll have M. Night direct the movie. It'll be a hackjob where everyone knows the ending to the movie 30 minutes in, but it'll make millions.

 

Yes, I believe he could stomp on you these days by barely lifting his knee. I predict he'll be the tallest one in the family by the end of the year.

 

TJinARVA, Miles looks great! Congratulations again! I feel awful for asking because I should know this -- is/was he a band kid? And if so, is he continuing with it in HS?

 

Being Scottish is fun!

 

^Well fuck. Why'd you Scots have to invent a garment so fucking sexy that the mere sight of it leaves me utterly befuddled?

 

Yes, I believe he'll be able to actually kill me if I ruffle up his hair.

 

Here are some pictures of some of the aircraft I saw while stationed at Eielson AFB Alaska.

A B-52 taking off


A B-52 landing


A B-1b on site to do cold weather testing. This was just after it went operational, when I took this picture, the plane was still top secret.


The A-10 Warthog, simply the best plane to support ground combat. I have witnessed this plane do incredible maneuvers.


An F-15 landing, my all together favorite Aircraft


A Navy P-3 visiting from Adak in the Aleutian Islands. Adak is simply the worst place on earth.


I spent a lot of time on this helicopter, became really close with the crew.


A C-5 Galaxy coming in for a landing.

 

I couldn't stop laughing when I first saw the avatar a few years ago on LiveJournal. Two things Canadians do very well is being very friendly and polite, and taking the piss out of ourselves.

 

Great shots there, Tom! I especially like the last one.

 

Picked this little guy up today while shopping.


He does not get along with my other toys. "Hello Kitty is an enemy of the Daleks! EXTERMINATE!!!"

 

Thanks Auntie, I got to see some great aircraft.

 

Tom Hendricks, may I have one of the A-10s? I promise to give it back. It's just that we've a football stuck in a tree, and I thought the GAU-8 cannon might help.

 

What can I tell you? We get extremes like that over here. Today it's down to 16°C and raining.

 

Some friends went to the ALA book fair in Los Angeles this past weekend, and among them was my very good friend Top41, who brought me back a very apropos gift of a book!
