Holy crap, hey Buff!!!!! How in the hell are you? I'm good although sadly lost my mother this year (not to covid) & am in a bit of withdrawal from not being able to go to any rock gigs since March - would normally average ~1 per week. Haven't played a computer game in years although I have continued to quietly check on the forum - somebody has to keep an eye on Bill Grant & his jokes [Hi Bill! ] Not to mention all the food/recipe/music/film threads Are you still involved with Strike Fighters? I miss the Jane's USAF days & that community ... can't believe that https://www.bobsyouruncle.net/mcflyhome.htm is still up

Same here but older is better than deader Yep! Whenever I say something like "Getting old sucks", I always qualify it with "but it beats the alternative". Nice to see some blasts from the past still with us, even if only visiting.

I was at the car wash this morning and the attendant was criticizing the previous customers for their slowness in operating the cash machine. "They were seventy years old or something, hadn't a clue". I never said a bloody word.

I'll come back with I can't count how many times some youngster cashier in recent years took forever to count back my change EVEN THOUGH the cash register calculates it for them. They seem to struggle with bills and coins like they're in kindergarten and haven't really figured out numbers beyond what they can count on their fingers. This is not some obsolete "skill" like knowing how to operate and maintain a manual typewriter or something. It's COUNTING MONEY.

Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

Unfortunately a lot of the pictures are now defunct.

Panzer, what was that ground tac sim we used to play that had the LAVs in it. We used to play it with a whole bunch of guys. The one guy died suddenly. I can't remember his handle.
The word "Martyr" is just a fancy name for "crappy fighter".
