  1. Mmmmm, biscuits and gravy! Yes, the U.S. is the land of plenty.
  2. During daylight hours and visibility appeared to have been good. Does make one go "hmmmmm".
  3. LOL! Definitely one of Geico's better commercials.
  4. So I'm actually 13.8 billion years old? Well, that would certainly explain all the unexplainable pains I feel when I wake up in the morning. 😁

    I grew up living next to a farm. For a long time, there were cows and we had an apple tree. Cows do love apples and I would frequently take apples to the fence and feed them to the cows.
  6. "So you were born in the last century"... that phrase makes me feel even older. Now I know how my great-grandmother felt when I discovered she had been born in the late 1800's and I made a similar comment to her.
  7. IBTL 🙂

    🤣 Leno was so funny!
  9. 🤣🤣🤣
  10. Maybe it's not the road that is particularly dangerous and unsafe, but perhaps it is the drivers who are dangerous and unsafe? Just throwing that idea out there.

    It's a brave new world. 🙁
  12. Most uncomfortable flight for me was on a B757, coach class. It was truly cattle class. Seats crammed together, no shoulder room, no leg room.

    The name of the game is "king of the hill". Cats always win this, and any other, game. If it appears that a cat has not won and has given up, the cat has not given up on winning. The cat retreats briefly in order to communicate with the Galactic Cat Council and receive instructions on a strategy that will lead to victory. 😁
  14. People and their smartphones. As Forest Gump said, "stupid is as stupid does".
  15. After years of flying combat sims and even flying as a member of a virtual WW II fighter squadron (virtual VMF-124), I "retired" to civilian flight sims. It is a different world, stress is mostly caused by weather, terrain, AI aircraft proximity, and the ever present danger of a crash to the desktop. I actually find GA sim flying to be relaxing, but I still sometimes get a hankering for high-g maneuvers.
  16. Holy loose wheel! 😲
  17. That could have been really bad if someone had been directly beneath the nose or if passengers were boarded or deboarding.
  18. That, or they are discussing their plan to align themselves with the machines and conquer the humans.

    When I bought my house, I had a professional inspector conduct a very thorough inspection. This guy was supposedly on top of everything. He said this house had no problems. Wrong! After I bought it, significant problems showed up, like insufficient support for load bearing walls and PB pipe. Much of the PB pipe had been replaced by the previous owner, but only in areas that were easily visible. PB pipe and its decaying joints were still within the walls.

    Things like that have been happening in the U.S. for decades and it seems to be getting worse. We seem to have far fewer skilled tradesmen working in construction and a whole lot more day laborers.
  21. Internment camps, lizard people, secret government facilities... riiiiiiight.
  22. Hollywood may soon undergo a massive change. Gone will be all the actors and massive studio lots, replaced by computers and AI artists.
  23. Well, that was a... spectacular test. Kaboom par excellence.

    Yeah... uhhhh... I dunno. I try to not get into conspiracy theories, but sometimes I do have to wonder.
