I have been to several countries. I have no desire to leave the U.S. again. There’s plenty of awesome spaces I haven’t explored here yet
I grew up in the Ozarks which have hills and curves. My biggest peeve is catching up to some jackass through the curves only to have him jump to 20moh over the limit on the straight ways and keeping me rom passing him. Then he’ll 20moh under the speed limit on the curves again.
Knew a guy who took jabs from his wife for about 10 years. When he finally had enough, he decked her one time and knocked her out. He did get charged with assault.

But equal rights come with equal lefts. Hit me like a man, I’ll hit you back.
Doesn’t really bother me. I find most of us tell stories about funny things that happened along the way, not the heavy stuff.

I’ve got a cousin, he went Guard and fixed helicopters. Deployed once to Kuwait and is forever telling stories of killing and combat. The two combat vets and me just ignore him and talk about something else or get back to the old branch vs other branches shenanigans…BTW, sorry you weren’t smart enough for the Air Force…

More difficult to make rank now days and he may have been prior enlisted. Looking at his badge I’m guessing an LRS officer. I’ve seen a few prior Es go to OTS and have a rack of ribbons like that.
I’ve also heard it called crispy or crisp corn. Mammaw used to make it. I’ll ask mom how she did it. I did a quick google and found some recipes. Could spice it up by using Tony’s instead of salt…
Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. I don’t think I’ve seen floating rest stops in a long while, but maybe in some places. Crunchy corn is still a thing though
Living in the Ozarks has its advantages. Very little blue stupidity here. I grow plenty of cucumbers and green beans. I don’t sell them, but our little town has farmers markets and are left alone by the authorities.
I think they made it as well. The FBI and U.S. Marshals had agents at the brothers’ mother’s funeral. That makes me think they had some evidence that one or all three made it. Perhaps a tip or something else
His book correctly identified what was happening (and wrong) in the midwest in the 1990s after NAFTA. Factories left the U.S. and set up in Mexico and Canada (later other countries as well). Your average dude could no longer graduate high school and expect to make a blue collar wage at the local factory. They turned to drugs and other things.

By seeing and pronouncing what I saw first hand, I am a Vance fan. I don't care what religion his wife is. Frankly, I don't really care what his religion his. If he's for putting Americans first, deporting illegal aliens and securing the border...then I'm for him. I'm sure there will be things I disagree with him on, but overall, he's good in my book.
Spent 13 years in La, both kids were born there. It’s a second home. I cheer for three teams, 1. MIZZOU, 3. LSU (as long as they are not playing the northern tigers) and 2. Whoever is playing Kansas…
I know you. I’m Magic, good to hear from you again.
I was a crewdog, patch wearing radar nav just like Evil, we probably know each other I'm guessing.

I hear you. Feels like RAIDR 21 all over. Hard not to say something but want to give everyone space. I will say this. Evil Watson is one of the most sincerest, funniest and friendliest dudes I ever met. He will be missed.
Speaking from another old Crewdog, you haven't crossed any lines.
I'm very familiar. They used to do a 2 engine go during CFIC, so I doubt it was a thrust issue. Hate second guessing, but I've heard that years ago, the trim adjustment was installed wrong. An old IP told me about it, but I would think that would be caught during rudder/elevator checks. This sucks.
How are the bros doing. I know it was a rough few weeks back in '08.
