Saw this and chuckled a bit.

Nothing says she can't come along.  It's just going to be on his dime until they stand before a judge.

That's what I was talking about.

Except for the slight uphill section I think Voytek & I are faster on the bicycles than those guys are.  I had to stop at around 2.5 mins just because of frustration.

On a side note...... I've  been up there a few times since you left but due to road conditions not quite as much fun if you know what I mean.   Evil

Air Farce?...Hell no!... Shocked

I was an Aerographer...navy talk for weatherman, don't know if they call it that anymore...probably Atmospheric Technician or something...

iirc, one of the 2 guys that showed up to the duc ride in leathers is a weather man too. i think it was the taller one, but i might be wrong. he's the guy in Afghanistan right now.

This social responsibilities requirement used to be an officers wives thing...maybe it's different with submariners since they're such a close knit group...

at tonight's shin-ding, they make it sound like the wife is supposed to be around to help out the younger sailors. it was definitely interesting, it was basically a thing for spouses to know what's coming up.  there's also some spouse, woman only, social too.

btw they told us, that priorities to fill are 1 hawaii, 2 guam, 3 san diego, 4 east coast. on a positive note, they said ppl that go to guam would advance quicker.  Roll Eyes


don't know if you guys have heard of this movie. i just read about it in the paper. won an award at the sundance festival. it's playing over at mililani theaters. really want to see this one. it's more like a documentary about guys over in Afghanistan.

Former HM1(SEAL) Marcus Luttrell was the guest speaker at my conference last week.  That was eye-opening indeed. I don't know if I'm ready to open them any wider just yet.

Thread killer returns!

I had to put myself on the midwatch Saturday night.  Responsibility is a hideous pregnant dog goddess.

Although the western portion doesn't look so hot on the map, this slice of road is quite nice if you can get a clear shot at it.

I just watched the video again and have to say that I am actually impressed.  It takes a lot of skill to lean the bikes over that far when you're going as slow as they were.   Evil

It looks like it might be a fairly nice Labor Day weekend coming up. Most likely I'll have to help team support for BME Racing boss-ski effort this Sunday for the Dick Evans round the island bike race. Maybe not though, we'll see. That should at least leave Sat afternoon open and Monday open.

Don't know what you're talking about.  Weather forecast for this weekend is sunny, with highs in the high 70s.   waytogo
