Lighten up and get out of your office cube.. Your going to blow :lol:

They don't hate America, they don't blame allied airpower during the war, they simply are afraid of what they used to see in the air by the hundreds when they were children. But they also know that the loss of their parents helped to give them the life they have now. And the life we all have now. So I guess I can understand how a B-17 could scare the heck out of them. Poor folks. See .... who can tell me WAR doesn't SUCK!


They need to go to the airport and look at the plane.. It's like petting the pony after it throws you off. :lol:

I just came back from Europe and the hatred towards this war is unbelieveable, NOT BY ALL remember, but by many. You can't hide from it. ..... :cry:

Hmm I guess if you go around asking then yes you will get an opinion in Europe. I just got back from Germany for a week and my German isn't what it used to be. Not one person mentioned Bush or the war to me nor was any anger or resentment directed to me because I'm american. I enjoyed my week away, because I didn't pick up one newspaper or watch tv. I don't wear clothing that indicates where I'm from either, but that's just the way I travel: as safe as possible.

Since the title of your post is "Confusing Day", I just wanted to let you know I can see how this could be very confusing, you watch a show about war, take a trip to a foreign country, and wake up one day and realize you are French. I would be confused as well. :D


God Ed that is friggin funny!!!!

Nope, didn't ask .... Nope, didn't buy a newspaper there, just took a few from the US with me, ... and let's see ... Nope, didn't wear a "I'm an American" T-shirt. So I guess I was safe as well.

So ... I know we love to talk about airplane part serial #'s and such


Just in case anyone was wondering, this is right out with me....for further info see "Anorak Question" thread. Before you S/N geeks get all up in arms, I am just joking, based on all the crap thr thread generated before. I have got to go now, I still have many serial numbers to file of of the Skyraider. :shock:

You know, for a number of years I felt the same way about Jets. But I have really been giving a lot of consideration to getting a T33. Ever since I saw a picture on here of a polished T33 with tip tanks, I have been having these bad thoughts. Therapy or a T33? Maybe both.


Jets are for kids... and they smell funny :lol:


When I was a kid, I used to think the same thing about women... :D

Glad you said something...I was so proud of this and wasn't feeling the love.
