    Caribbean Pirates?

  2. keithybabes says:

    Pizzaburger’s recycling his bedroom wall photos. Next we’ll get that tennis player scratching her bum.

  3. manchowder says:

    I’m very proud of our military.

    • keithybabes says:

      Aw, bless.

    • OutOfTheBox says:

      I am very proud of our military, too.

      and the pictures of this plane and the rainbow emissions plane are truly awesome!

      as a change of pace, though, and to balance out the war-and-peace thing, could we also have a pretty picture or two of something that can’t drop bombs?

      just a peaceful request :)

      • manchowder says:

        Well, this jet is not bombing anything, just flying, and it’s pretty peaceful up there, so request granted.

        • PortlandMark says:

          That’s so unfair! Even on an attack run, the jet is only actively bombing something for, what, the fraction of a second that it takes to pull the release lever? It’s just not right to say that on the rest of the fourteen hour flight it was engaged in peaceful maneuvers.

          It is a pretty picture though.

        • OutOfTheBox says:

          I didn’t say that it was dropping bombs at that moment. I said it is something that drops bombs, and it IS something that drops bombs. However, I guess complex sentences are just too complex for you…

          … but, since most PKers are pretty complex themselves, and have no problem comprehending complexity, I will continue to ignore your simple lack of complex comprehension in my posts. got it? probably not.

          • Paws4thot, the PK Booty Caller and founder of the AANM says:

            You’re technically correct, since some Tomcats were converted into bombers during the first Gulf War (due to the complete lack of credible fighter opposition), but the type’s design purpose was as a distant point-defence fighter.

            • OutOfTheBox says:

              Hey, I’ll take a “technically correct.” It’ll do.

              *wipes sweat from brow and collapses in chair, murmuring to self, ‘gee, that was close… maybe they won’t notice I had no idea wtf this really was until Paws told me.’*

      • Smurf says:

        Captain Kirk’s spacecraft is ah, pretty peaceful; if you’re not wearing a red shirt.

        • OutOfTheBox says:

          … and yours, apparently, is blue; so you must be in pretty deep kudzu with Kirk. :)

          btw… anyone else ever wonder why they chose that name for that character?

          I mean, whenever Scotty addressed the captain as “Captain Kirk,” he was, in his own way, calling him “Captain Church.”

          always bothered me just a little. well, very, very little. but some.

          • Paws4thot, the PK Booty Caller and founder of the AANM says:

            You know I’m Scottish, right?

            Well, I can’t explain the rules of grammar in the Scots language properly, but it’s not a valid sentence in Scots. Oh and incidentally James Doohan neither spoke Scots, nor spoke with a credible Dundonian accent, in Star Trek.

            • OutOfTheBox says:

              I am crushed! there goes another one of my memories from the days of my youth! Scotty was a fraud! :(

              *stumbles to corner, collapses in a heap, sobs inconsolably*

            • CaptainMac says:

              According to a bio on Doohan that I read, he was a Canadian of Scots descent, and a decorated wounded veteran (he lost part of one of his hands). I will cut the lad some slack. Alba go bragh!

    • The Amazing Rando says:

      We all are. Even us America hatin’ liberals are proud of our military. ;) They do things as part of their every day job that I could never dream of doing. So yeah, they deserve our respect all the way. I don’t agree with the wars their bosses send them into, but damn, that level of courage doesn’t grow on trees.

      • Smurf says:

        Rando, your patriotism is expanding up your sleeve. Have you got any Korans to burn down in Florida with Rev Jones on 9/11? That’ll larn em.

        • Ivan Teh Sock Monkey says:

          You have a real hard-on for Rando, doncha? Creepy.

        • The Amazing Rando says:

          You’re just weird.

          • OutOfTheBox says:

            yeah, they are. some people just don’t get complexity. have to have everything in black and/or white. all digital, no analog. two opposite poles, no continuum. all toggle switches, no dimmer switches. (stop me when you get sick of this.)

            “Lions for Lambs”. got panned. in a way, deservedly. but did show the agonizing irony of the immense courage of ordinary American soldiers in a useless and futile war started by an upper-class idiot.

            patriotism is not limited to actions in war. but those actions are not excluded from the definition of patriotism, either. honoring those guys and gals is not “gay”, even for the guys and gals who are gay.

            btw, I will be glad when the slang-of-the-day moves away from “gay” and on to something else. it is so politically un-correct, a slam against homosexuals/lesbians. and pretty damn confusing. :)

        My trainer at my gym is an active Recon Marine. The training that members of his unit are put through was featured in Discovery’s ‘Surviving the Cut’, and he’s training to become an Olympic trainer.

        I respect the hell out of the guy, and feel inspired to push myself through the workouts he gives me.

    Ok…now where’s Captain Jones and the Dutchman?

  5. Justacarolinian says:

    Time to buzz the tower.

  6. Clueless says:

    This is a beautiful awesome picture.

  7. foomanchu says:

    War sucks.

  8. Scott says:

    Meh, “going green” is still not as awesome as going to plaid.

  9. Jade says:

    Best.
    Plane.
    EVER.
