  1. WW2 B-17 The Fighting Cock

    I saw this online yesterday. This Flying Fortress was attached to the 551st Bomb Squadron of the 385th Bomb Group. It was damaged by enemy fire over France and ditched in the Bay of Biscay on 12-5-1943. Seven of the 10 crew members died when their life raft was machine-gunned by members of...

    Yeah, Trump has to start with a tariff percentage number somewhere. I believe we will find tariff numbers that work for both us and most of our trading partners much sooner than people think. He's trying to reduce our huge deficit and ease our income tax burden with tariffs at the same time...

    I am 61 and all of my money is my savings account, so I am not at risk. The other things is the markets are being intentionally manipulated indirectly by heads of state right now and the tariff percentages may fluctuate a good bit one way or the other. No talk of recession before now, either...

    From a record standpoint, this was one of the worst teams we have fielded since I started going to games during the 2013-14 season. The team was perceived as a "low effort" team by many of the fan base. This was the year for the role players of two years ago to step up win games for us, but they...
  7. EZ Pass Toll Roads

    I got those a few years ago. The bad thing was they were using a number in my local cell phone network.
  8. EZ Pass Toll Roads

    I have been getting frequent texts about my Photobucket pics being deleted, but the link asks you for a bank account first rather than allowing you simply log in and delete everything. Possibly legit, but likely a scam as well.
  9. EZ Pass Toll Roads

    There was a recent period where I got a spate of emails about Microsoft subscription renewals. The emails looked legit, but nothing ever went through my bank account, so I just deleted them. They just are wanting to get your bank account info and that's it.
  10. EZ Pass Toll Roads

    It is indeed a scam and I have seen news articles online warning about it.
  11. Beamer Spring Practice

    Rocket left some pretty big shoes to fill. With the portal, it's going to be a fairly new line-up each year. I like the team regardless and we'll see what we get this year.

    Someone with ties to Ohio told me the speculation was pretty strong that he is coming back here. We would still need another strong G like Ta'Lon if he came back to Columbia regardless.

    My hope is that we remain healthy with no injuries over the spring and summer.
  17. What should our response be if Russia invades Ukraine?

  18. NASA not bringing Boeing Starliner crew back until February

    The last manned American space mission was Apollo 18 in 1972 and then the space shuttle missions started in 1981. The shots of that capsule coming down in the ocean underneath the big parachutes certainly brought back some memories for me. We need to start doing that again, but that's just me...
  19. NASA not bringing Boeing Starliner crew back until February

    The recent events in space make me think of that 2013 movie Gravity with Sandra Bullock. The first 20 minutes of that movie are just incredible. I didn't realize how long ago that movie was released. Damn, I'm old.
  20. NASA not bringing Boeing Starliner crew back until February

    I believe NASA and Boeing felt it best to err to the side of caution on allowing the crew to run in their original spaceship, which would later return safely unmanned. There were serious integrity issues that cause the original capsule to leak as I recall. Boeing has had too many safety issues...
