Hard to believe a little one like that was out in that type of weather.

Desert Eagle in .357.............what a POS that was.

One time Emerson Fittipaldi got pulled over for speeding. Mario Andretti was riding with him. I guess he was doing way over the limit. Anyway the cop asks him "Who do you think you are, Mario Andretti?" He replies, No, I'm Emerson Fittipaldi...Mario is in the passenger seat. When someones says cowboy movies, I think John Wayne.......when they say bada##, I think Clint Eastwood.

One has to take RO classes to run the timer? Not to change the subject.....but, should someone who has never taken the classes run the timer?

Rye, how did you become a piano tuner as a profession? Just curious.

Regardless is anyone liked him politically (I didn't), the man is still one of a few breed. It takes a WHOLE BUNCH of guts to sit on top of a flying bomb (the Atlas boosters were'nt exactly known for their reliablity) and maintain your focus and professionalism. He did this throughout his military career and his NASA career. He was a hero when America needed one. Not a made up hero.....a true hero. I'll not forget his political views but I can never thank him enough for his contributions to the Service and Country. CS

Mine is with me 24 hours a day.....but only in heart and soul. I say "Hey Booge" every morning to his picture. Cross between a black lab and a dobie....best friend I ever had.

Well put Creeker....... Thank you Mr. Glenn for having the courage to forge the "Final Frontier". Rest in Peace

John Glenn, a major pioneer in jet development and the "race for space" died today at age 95. He was the first American to orbit the Earth in 1962. Thank you for having the courage to be a trail blazer in the Final Frontier. Rest in Peace Mr. Glenn

Nope, two was enough. Unconditional surrender is what followed, not the total destruction of Japan and it's people. The ranks of WWII vets is getting smaller all of the time. I've had the pleasure of knowing several of them, may they rest in peace now. On this day, 75 years ago, for many the war began......for some, it never ended. God Bless the Greatest Generation and all of those who preceded and followed.
