    Poll: What do you think about the Space Force?

    I liked it much better when the Air Force was under the Army. AF cargo plane crews treat Army soldiers on board like fresh convicts in the joint. I know. I was an American Army soldier who had the misfortune to be onboard an AF cargo plane in 1991.

    Space Force motto? "May the farce be with you!"

    Poll: What do you think about the Space Force?

    PS - Can one become a law-enforcement officer (known as MP in the Army) in the Space Force? How about a military dog handler? How does it get logistical support? Will this force be trained, armed and equipped to protect humans on Earth against any possible extraterrestrial invasions? Can this...

    Poll: What do you think about the Space Force?

    Is the American Space Force still part of the "real military"? Don't they need laser guns or fazers instead of AR-style weapons?

    What is the biggest challenge for you in hunting?

    This Tom invented boozy egg custard and boozy pudding. Brandy is the key ingredient.

    or my bank account...... in the 1970's, your money could double in 9 years on savings interests alone

    What is the biggest challenge for you in hunting?

    Hunter standing there looking cute, waiting for something to move and SHOOT! BANG!!!! AAAARRRRRRGHHHH!! Is that a little red vixen (she red fox) in the background? A she-gunnywolf pup?

    What is the biggest challenge for you in hunting?

    You have to actually draw to go hunting? Too many other wannabes for competition? Not enough critters out there? I was an expert rifleman in the Army. I can draw a bead quite well! Tom Lehrer could draw a bead proficiently on whatever pesky game wardens, fellow hunters or out-of-season milk cows...

    What is the biggest challenge for you in hunting?

    Health or physical condition? Finding a place to hunt? Financial condition? Not having a mentor to show you how to do things? Having enough time? Dealing with laws and game regs? Not being able to use the guns and ammo you want to hunt with depending on location, season and game sought...

    POLL: when was the last time you went to a drive-in movie?

    A double feature for only 6 bucks. None of the drive-ins my family went to tuned in by radio. They always had a speaker to put in the window of the automobile. Some even had a portable heater unit to hang on the car window as well for wintertime. We were in sunny lowland California. No snow...

    POLL: when was the last time you went to a drive-in movie?

    My family went to drive-ins. My older brother and I were in the car. The German shepherd was in back too. I never went to a drive-in with a lover. I don't know about all that necking stuff. To me, it was all about the content of the film. We saw Bedknobs and Broomsticks at the drive-in as well...

    POLL: when was the last time you went to a drive-in movie?

    I was born in 1964. Technically, the final year for boomers.

    POLL: when was the last time you went to a drive-in movie?

    For me, it was in early 1978 and I was 13 then. The whole family went in the station wagon. The speaker was hung on the car window. The films, double feature, were called "Audrey Rose" and "Coma". Earlier on in history, my family went to some Oscar flms at drive-in theaters as well: Patton...

    Kids? Goats used to smoke and drink?

    My philosophy about gender in language.

    If we are going to dispose of all the informal terms for females we should also get rid of all the informal words for males to be fair. Bloke, Dude, Fellow, Chap, Guy what have I missed? Ok, we might keep GUY if we also keep GAL. Sound fair? Anyway, guys and gals, I've had my say. Happy...

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    I fired one of those M72A1 LAWs in the Army. Too many damned complicated steps to deal with it. Look for WITH COUPLING printed on it while inspecting. Much easier to draw a d/a revolver and shoot. Mr. Douglas, you forgot to yell "BACKBLAST AREA, ALL CLEAR!" with your head turned back before...

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    Intelligence? Bolt-action smart? Armalite stupid? An AR in 5.56 is not a "smart" choice? It has virtually no recoil, a bunch of customizeable and replacable parts and surplus 5.56 ammo can be had for a song. Is t the best gun for a deep-woods dweller? Well, there might be a happy home for it in...
