  1. Nope Pay of pigs was a CIA sponsered reaction to an already lost counter insurgency war. It is viewed as part of the same conflict.
  2. Nope!! By 'defending' I mean the forces fighting for the establishment. In the Vietnam conflict that would have been South Vietnam and the USA. The aggressors would have been North Vietnam and the Viet Cong. There have been about 50 such conflicts since WW2. Score 49:1
  3. Historical comment. A counter insurgency/guerilla type war has only been won by the defending side once in the 20th century. Any takers as to who and which conflict? Anyway my point is this, like it or not this war will not be won by kicking ass and taking names. The reasons behind it all have to be addressed while the kicking and name taking goes on.

    Ok I will relieve you of your pain Another farmer in town.( Afrikaans speaking SA's refer to themselfs as farmers) We are going to take over Three or four of us and thousands of Yankees They had better go call their brothers. To confuse the issue further I had mistyped 'hul'(they) If you can speak German, Flemish or Dutch you can usually follow Afrikaans.

    Hoesit!!!!!!! Laat hulle bekommerd raak. Hulle is te min en ons is te woes. BTW My deep apologies for implying that Southern rednecks were the same as the decadent Yankees.
  7. Let me guess. Lost in the system for six months. Do you work in the post office?
  8. Jobless in three weeks? Did they finally find out who has been stealing the milk out of the fridge
  9. Mondays are hell period. Followed closely by Tuesdays with Wednesday in hot pursuit. Thursday offers moral support. Friday...I can live with Friday
  10. I was thinking more along these lines [loud whiny voice] Drunk again.......and now I suppose you want SEX!!! [/loud whiny voice]
  11. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

  15. 1:2:0: Got some fun working RW in. I wish the heat would die down now. It is a bit disconcerting when you are flying your base leg and there is a HUGE dust devil playing silly buggers in the middle of the DZ. Axed myself for the rest of the day...Phuk that shit.
  16. Oops Make that 10k or 10000ft...you choose
  17. The only time pulling at 10000k is worth it is when you have a couple of cans of beer inside your jumpsuit and a sunset to watch on a hot summer evening.
  18. ummmmm Arn't you a little small for her?

  20. Newspaper headlines: Skydiver falls to his death in Citrusdal. Truth: S/L student has fatal heart attack under fully functioning canopy. This happend about a year ago. Go figure.

  22. You guys are being nasty. I'm going to tell my Maaaaaaaammy
  23. I would say it is pretty much six of one or 1/2 dozen of the other. My experience is that S/L students have better initial canopy pilot skills and the AFF people are initially better at RW. Each for obvious reasons. It all evens out pretty quickly though.
  24. Just so that you understand. Female sheep only. Shagging male sheep is a little weird don't you think.
