Re: Greetings from Arizona!

Peewee... I hate to tell you this, but Joe and I are around the same age and I am far from a kid. You're just old. ;D

No, y'all are a kidz cause I'm right around the same age PW is and I'M NOT OLD. Just been around a long time.
And don't ask me why PW thinks he is a dinosaur,

Sorry dude, I'm 36 and I'm old. You're ancient. ;D

I'm real ashamed of this, but I'm of open mind tonight. I don't know why I'm saying this, but I feel like I'm amongst BS brothers who will understand.

I't's been on my chest for a long time, and sooner or later it just had to come out.

Here it is:

I had flaming monkey wild sex with Betty Rubble before she ever even met Barney. Barney never even found out. He thought she was a virgin.

I've got circles around my ass but I have to hold my ass up to the mirror to see 'em.

Well the reason the machinists had to make a repair is because the person that installed the fuel nozzles (injectors) did not put anti-seize on the 4 mount bots. When we pulled the nozzles for "test and inspect" the bolts pulled old helicoils out. There is only one way to repair it after that happens and it involves resizing the hole, making a steel plug, treading the outside diameter and then tapping the inside to the correct size for the mount bolts. This is not a repair these guys do often and in fact I am the only one that knew the repair existed. It is normally done at the depot level during major overhauls but these guys were willing to give it a try to save the asset. It is in a very difficult area to work in and they did the best they could. It just so happens the bits broke and the taps slipped and fell into the hole they were working around....the machinists are not qualified to use the scope I was using so they cant try to retrieve it...besides, I did not want these clods dorking around in my engine so they could screw something else up.....there are a lot of other variables driving the urgency of keeping this engine on the wing, things like spare engine availability and time plus I saved the gov't at least a 1/4 mill in repair costs.

Well, there was the dinosaur connection - will it be Wilma Flintstone or Betty Rubble? That one was easy. Wilma Flintstone -uuuughh. It's no wonder Fred wanted to put on antlers and go to the Lodge. Betty Rubble? - yeah.

And then there was the forever arguable one, Ginger or Mary Ann?

Of course, this whole debate is about shows that were on probably before most of you were born. Yes, there was life, actually in color, back then. And I mean LIFE was is color, not just the TV's.

Re: Greetings from Arizona!

Get off base, Joe, and you are a young guy. The problem is that you're in a sea of 19 year olds on base. I'm currently the age my father was when he retired as a Lt Colonel. It's hard to fathom now. But, a 43 year old officer is a grand daddy on a military base.

My daddy used to talk about when he trained on B-17's near the end of WWII. The war got over before he had to go. He said the pilot-captain of the bomber was 23 years old, and the rest of the crew called him "Old Man."
