13 states need to pick a timezone. How is part of Oregon only 1 hour from part of Florida?

@scottrkrol @RobManess The crazy now is the oldest B-52 still flying is newer than the oldest KC-135 still flying. And all the BUFFs and KC-135s are older than the first Wright Flyer was when they came off the line.

@RobManess I don't think people truly grasp what an amazing aircraft the B-52 is. First production flight 72 years ago. Imagine if some air force was flying a Sopwith Camel in 1988 in comparison. Crazy.

@TheRobBrownShow I was lucky enough to get an infield pass for a race a decade ago. I watched him for a few minutes. Standing, he had the game face on. Taking a knee and talking to kids, he was awesome and looked like he really loved it.

Fuck. That's heartbreaking. Genuinely, sincerely. Rowdy had a well earned reputation on the track. But I can tell you he was genuinely a kind person off of it. Kyle joined us for NASCAR Night at Swamp Rabbits game. Took every picture, signed every autograph, talked to....

We are saddened and heartbroken to share the news of the passing of Kyle Busch, a two-time Cup champion and one of our sport's greatest and fiercest drivers. He was 41 years old. We extend our deepest condolences to the Busch family, Richard Childress Racing and the entire motorsports community.

@MCCCANM I see no one so far mentioned JOC night at Nav school when it was at Mather AFB near Sacramento. Good deals on drinks, bat hanging, crud, music, relatively open base, many aircraft from west coast bases on the ramp. A number of nav school students met their spouse at JOC night.

In the movie “Top Gun”, Maverick picks up Kelly McGillis by singing in the Officer’s Club. The “O Club” – as it’s known – was a thing, but died a slow death. I missed most of it in my career. In the day, Mom got pissed at the Nellis AFB O’ Club for “Lingerie Night” where models came in & showed off lingerie for sale. It was an early memory for me, seeing those women cross the hall…Mom was beyond pissed & went on a crusade w/ the other Officer’s wives, ending up in the General’s office. They won, but I wish they hadn’t. Before 9/11, the Air Force allowed busses of women to come onto the base on weekend nights, headed to the O’ Club. My Dad was the commander of Security Forces at the time; it was a thing he allowed & for a reason. Seriously, busses full of women, all going to the O’ Club…it was a hot spot at any base. The O’ Club could be a wild place. Once, at Nellis, Dad got a call on a Saturday (I think, but definitely a weekend). It was “Red Flag”, with fighter pilots from all over the world attending to do simulated air war against each other…they’d gotten drunk in the O’ Club & started actually fighting, smashing things up. Shit show. He told his troops to go get all the dogs…Nellis was a center for military dog training & he had turned the “Squadron” into a “Group”, then made “Silver Flag” in the desert, where SF got to play war. It was now not just a place SF could be stationed, it was the home of SF. Anyway, he recalled all the troops, went to the club & locked all the doors except one. Then they let the dogs in…nobody escorting, just release the dog with the command to go fuck things up. One by one, the pilots came out in surrender. He loved that story…wish I could hear him tell it one more time. Anyway, the Tailhook Scandal happened & that was the death signal. Now, Commanders counted the amount of drinks you had. Instead of being a place you could relax, you had to be on duty still. You had to pay to be a member of the O’ Club. It became a place where your career was in jeopardy, so membership declined. The Officer & Enlisted Clubs eventually merged to try & survive, but I don’t think it has gone well. Some Commanders would hold mandatory meetings there, and you had to be a member to attend, which generated some memberships, but that was received poorly. The Pilot Training Bases still have a decent club scene. They don’t allow civilians to come anymore, but it’s a bunch of young trainee pilots trying to flex on each other, playing a very physical game called “Crud”. You’ll have to google that. I helped a Major refit the Club at Vance AFB around 2000. He knew what to do & it was great…he managed to get an ejection seat & a stick from the T-37 right at the bar. Then he wired it so that if you pulled the “Trigger” on the stick, it set off alarm lights & sirens in the club, and now our brand new, naive student who fancied himself a steely-eyed killer owed the whole club beers when the lights & alarms went off. I had a few good nights at O’ Clubs. Vance AFB could get wild on Assignment Night. Randolph AFB was still kicking… the AF Nursing program was based nearby & it had a basement Crud room w/ sandbag walls, so things could get wild when the nurses showed up to have fun. My buddy may make General, but I remember him passing out on a General’s lawn as a Lieutenant after a good night at Randolph & being woken by the sprinklers. We lost something. Some of it was worth discarding, but not all of it was & it built relationships in a way we lack today. The Clubs were good, and it makes me sad they are in such a bad state today.

Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

We had scarfs when I was a boom and they made us wear them at all times... except when we were flying. They were made out of polyester... a fire hazard in the event of an emergency. Kind of defeated the purpose of wearing all the nomex we had (flightsuit, gloves, long johns, etc...) This was our colors and pattern, sorry it's a bit pixelated.

@CyborgPeds Rx Do you have a scarf when you fly? I imagine you wearing a scarf when you fly!

Up next at No. 256 in our all-time programs rankings is Texas State! 2 NCAA Tournaments and a whole bunch of consistency for the Bobcats. Plus a special year in 1951-52 - where they may not have been considered a full on “D1” program (it was different back then), but at 30-1, were voted 20th in the final AP Poll! Crazy fact there for Texas State!

Davis Fogle just wrapped up a kids clinic at Shoot 360. Covered a variety of topics with him after, including the pitch he and other Gonzaga players gave to Massamba Diop. “We explained to him, this is a basketball school, you’re going to be a celebrity here, they love you here. … We told him, we’re going to be good next year, we’re going to make a run, we’re going to win and you’re exactly what we need. Lob threat, block shots, it’s a perfect place for you.”

Today is National Explosive Ordnance Disposal Day! In 2010, Congress formally recognized this day through H.Res. 1294, honoring those who serve and have served in the noble and self-sacrificing profession of Explosive Ordnance Disposal in the United States Armed Forces.
