You're still young enough to go in. And you'd make an AWESOME hot Air Force chick!!!

That's one thing I didn't see brought up in the Military Poll thread in the 7.3 section -- the Air Force is known to have the best looking women.

LOL! Well..thats quite a compliment. I'd love to, just not in the position where I'd be able to do that sorta thing. Besides, I don't have perfect vision anymore..not after working as a graphic designer for a few years.

There was an email floating around a while ago..called the real Miss America. What a cutie, some air force gal who flew.

Any way to take a snapshot of that and show you guys?
Google is your friend here. Type in all those letters that don't make sense and you'll get an idea of what's what. If you want to get a screen snapshot, hold down the Ctrl button and press Prnt Scrn. Then if you click on Start, Programs, in the Accessories list, you'll find something called Paint (at least that's how it is on my machine). If you open Paint, then you can select Edit, then Paste and it will paste the screen snapshot there. You can then save it as a jpeg or whatever type of file we are allowed to attach in a post and share it with the rest of us.

How's this for a Smart Car:

YouTube - smart car tricks

That thing has the engine from a Suzuki Hayabusa in it.... 1300cc monster. The original 1999 Hayabusa went 196mph STOCK. A couple moto-journalists died riding them at the edge, so the manufacturers voluntarily put limits on the big bikes after that to limit them to 300km/h (186mph) .... but that's easy enough to get around...

Awww, shucks. 'twas nothin'...

And there was also a certain magazine (starts with Play and ends in boy) that featured an Air Force female drill sergeant from Lackland AFB. Woooowwwww-sers is all I could say. I'd drop & give her 20 ANYTIME!!
