I will keep him in my thoughts and meditations.

Nope.

Nobody that I am aware of is taking anything away from Pistol Pete. He will always be recognized as one of the greatest to play the game. What they are doing is acknowledging that Ms. Clark has reached a very specific milestone in her college career. At the end of the day, one can throw out all of the "Yeah, buts" they want and it won't change the two basic facts I mentioned above. Congratulations to her for putting in the effort to make the most of the talent she was given.

Kind of like this?

I'm thankful you're still in one piece. Take care of yourself!

The last I heard, they reported an EF-1 doing the damage. I live just northeast of there, and our county and the next one over took damage from an EF-2. Fortunately no damage to our place, and no deaths reported, although quite a bit of property damage. One of my veterans works doing restoration for the museum, and lives where the worst of the local damage was. I will reach out and check in on him eventually, but I figure he has more important things to do right now.

Not an earthly "pilot," but in Crossing the Bar, Tennyson wrote "I hope to see my pilot face to face / when I have crost the bar" back in 1889.

I missed this somehow, but the first pic is Dad of the Year material right there. The second pic... Those eyes!

Bob Hoover. Enough said.

If you're referring to the light colored box on the right side of the fore grip of the soldier's rifle in the foreground, it's an IR laser.

Do you know how hard it is to clean ginger ale from a laptop computer?!??

I will keep both of you in my thoughts and meditations.

I don’t know what I was thinking. My best friend assured me it would be fine bringing all of my guns. I mean, it was a big boat. Darn near a yacht. Then we had that accident. All before I could get pictures.

Tripping on Your Love

"Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles..." Peter Falk, Andre the Giant, Billy Crystal. Clever writing, funny to downright hilarious scenes, some of the most quotable scenes ever. There are likely a number of references on this forum alone you missed because you've not seen it.

To paraphrase, I do think that word means what you think it means!

Darkness Surrounding Don't feel obligated to listen to it. Some guys listened to it during deployment.

Hmmm... I will take your word for it, since they were before my time. I only went to one "date concert" that I can recall as a younger man. It was this guy. How'd the date turn out? Well, we celebrated 33 years of marriage last November, so I'd say, so far, it's going pretty well!

Paul Revere by The Beastie Boys

I'll go with Paradise by the Dashboard Light, since it was first and more accurately reflects the rules: Light My Fire:

Time After Time

Ah, Sure, sure.

I used to believe I was fairly weird. Then I came to this forum and spent time. Now I consider myself heroically well-adjusted.

On their way... And back.
