This is from Ace Jewell CDR-USN-ret, now about 88, Fighter Pilot in 3 wars and LSO extraordinaire. They don’t make them like Ace anymore. Ace says:
“Drones will not …be late to briefings, start fights at happy hour, destroy clubs, attempt to seduce others’ dates, purchase huge watches, insult other Services, sing “O’Leary’s Balls,” dance on tables, yell “Show us your tits!!!” or do all of the other things that we know win wars!”

Our very own Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man now has the THIRD book in his Maxwell series out!!!
Click the book to go to the Amazon link and buy the book!
I’m about half way through it finished it last night, and I think it’s the best of the series so far. Congrats to Peter for his excellent writing, and looking forward to more from him!!!
Let me see if I have this right….
This NAACP rally is protesting requiring Photo ID to register to vote and to cast a vote in state and federal political elections because it’s a ‘racist law’ and ‘oppresses minorities’ the ‘right to vote’….. BUT… You must have a Photo ID to attend the rally protesting Photo ID….?
In the middle of the list, however, is a drastically ironic “Do.” To go to the rally, you are asked to have “photo identification (driver’s license, passport or other valid photo id) with you and keep it on your person at all times.”
Unions are against Photo ID laws for many of the same reasons… but they also require Union members to show Photo ID to vote in a Union election… hmmmm
You are required to have Photo ID to rent a video, buy an airline or bus ticket, start a bank account, cash a check, even get a library card at many libraries and a laundry list of other actions/activities requiring Photo ID be presented… but it’s discriminatory and a racist ploy against minorities to require Photo ID to vote?

This one tipped over the gigglebox…
One of the horses I rode as a kid on my uncle’s ranch was ‘persnickety’ about his hooves, and was a dainty stepper… Pablo was the ONLY person on the ranch that horse would let inspect his hooves, or re-shoe him. Anybody else, it was Katy bar the door!!!
This is one I honestly can say I never thought I’d see…
And I loved the reactions…
IF that were done here, some lefties or atheists would be raising holy hell about separation of church and State!!!
Sigh…
I was reminded of this by an email on the mil email today…
A different time, and sure as hell a different man than the one there today…
Much like his father, W had no qualms about talking to the ‘little people’…
And we were a better country then than now…

This Will Make Your Day! She has 10 children from the same guy who gets arrested so she has no income and it is OUR responsibility to take care of her???
They are paying her rent, providing her furniture and she says it is not enough. She says to us somebody ought to be held accountable, look in the mirror sweetheart…
What the hell has happened to our country???
Hours and HOURS of doing this stuff…
Bonus points if you can guess what kind of ship that is…
This was always the ‘fun’ shot… Right over the top and hope to hell they didn’t stuff ‘something’ up your ass as your went over…
And those were ‘roughly’ at 200 feet off the water…
And an ‘unusual’ view of a drop to provide something to a ship at sea…
If the crew was really ‘good’ the boat didn’t even have to put a small boat in the water, they could just use a boathook to pick up the package…
We did one in 1976 for a Tall Ship for some medicine and they wanted it ‘close aboard’…
If I remember correctly, it ended up in the rigging… 🙂
Gotta make a speed run down to check on the house, and teach a basic pistol class this weekend…
