  1. I always loved landing on dirt/sod instead of concrete. There’s something primal about it - like black powder instead of smokeless.
  2. Looks like an airstrip on the edge of the property in the third pic.
  3. Yup. And I supplemented it by scavenging vacant lots for soda bottles, and turning them in for 2 cents each. The grocer knew what we were up to.
  4. I rode a Kawasaki Mach 3 750 triple a couple of times back around 1971-72. Acceleration was mind-numbing and combined with marginal stability for such a bike. Think I might have had to change my underwear after my second (and last) ride… Oh, to be young and stupid again!
  5. Which is why I haven’t watched one in the last 20 years.
  6. Story of my life. The hearing part, that is. However, I would never share what I “heard”. Not to that guy anyway…
  7. From a friend who was at a "Red Dawn" match last year.
  8. I always looked behind me right before falling over backwards. One time a tourist diver didn’t and landed right on top of me. Boy howdy, that left a mark on my head.
  9. The best thing to come out of Iowa is I-35… Apologies to my Iowa pards. That’s a cheesy Kansas City joke!
  10. Hijack alert!! Ok, so the M-79 was deemed obsolete as a stand-alone weapon and also not versatile enough, so it was combined with the AR platform to make the M-203. But now, the M-203 is obsolete and they're going back to a stand-alone weapon with an improved version of the M-79 with the M-320? I don't get it.
  11. Looks like a scene from the movie “Fargo”…
  12. Is that an MG-42? And is that Aaron Rogers preparing to fire on the defensive line?
  13. That doesn’t look like “The Gay Caballero” movie I saw way back when…
  14. I’ve got one of those with oak leaves…
  15. I can make out a correctly oriented letter E ahead of the cockpit. Could he have been landing on the centerline deck?
