And Red Sparky, he owes me a Blake's Green Chili Lotta burger.

Five year old thread on this sad anniversary. Makes me wonder where some of these members have gone. Hope they are well.

Not if they're illegals

Nice ram. I wanna know how it tastes.

I'll be 239 years young.

You were born in 2048?

Imagine a fighter with electronic warfare capabilities so advanced it can not only jam enemy ground and airborne radar in over a thousand mile radius, but also turn it's enemies own missiles against them. Imagine?

I must be getting old, she's hot and has wine.

My nephew is an F-35 crew chief. We've had discussions concerning the F-35s capabilities after a recent NATO war game. Let's just say I am in awe and sleep well at night as they fly sorties over my home.

They do. The footage is reviewed by squadron commanders much like a football coach would. Easiest way to tell the F-22 from the F-35 is simple, F-22 has 2 engines.

Just tell me more stories about watching the Wright Flyer as you surf fished off Kitty hawk.

LoL. Prior to the course being built, Luke AFB had the dubious reputation of being the only CONUS air base with no golf course. It was a big, big deal among the brass and enlisted. As some compensation, those stationed there could play free at any public course. This thread is really making me reminisce on my duties at the bombing range, Gila Bend. I saw and worked with every attack and bomber aircraft in the NATO arsenal. Only aircraft I would never see were the B-52s but their effects were certainly felt.

Thank you

F 35 on top is a Luke bird. F 22 below it, Langley. Langley's VA AFB is the nearest F-22 base but they will visit AZ. Nothing like getting buzzed by A-10s in a remote canyon while on a green horse.

Lol Nearly sold it a few years ago, can't now. So if you need to nut punch someone, punch yourself. Sorry op, just saying these are around. Saw one in a pawnshop downtown but it was a .45

My dad picked this up in the late 60's for $75 at a garage sale I've considered selling a few times but not so much these days.

I'm dreading this

My guess is a piece of pop art for home or business.

Looks like he's wearing a helmet but it's the bowl of dharma under the cloak. He looks wild eyed because, In one version of the story, he is said to have fallen asleep seven years into his nine years of wall-gazing. Becoming angry with himself, he cut off his eyelids to prevent it from happening again.[ The fly whisk is an attribute of Daruma (Bodhidharma), who according to tradition transmitted Chan Buddhism to China; it symbolizes the sweeping away of mental distractions and ignorance.

Japanese had some awesome looking deities.

It's early 20th century Japanese pop art. Nice piece.

My ex mother in law was Buhddist by way of Japan. We hosted the in laws in our home for years. They had a Durma character figurine and all the Buhddas, Butsudans and Hello Kitties .... Just looked to me like another Buhddas, he came in many shapes and sizes
