I could see myself having a beer with her at the bar and listening to her stories all evening!
I liked that the interviewer was kind of relaxed and personal, not the usual pro with a list of questions and a timeline.

BTW, did you know when she visited you that she would tell that story on TV if she got elected?

They still run them anti clockwise.

Whether that means they run slower times because they are running into a head wind I don't know.

With the Space Force, there are only FIVE branches of the US Military. The Marines are not a separate branch, they are part of the US Navy. In fact, all of the US Marines are US Naval Infantry since they are all Infantry first.

That logo says Department of the Air Force, which implies it's like the USMC relationship to the Department of the Navy. No??

Probably so. They must have some good stuff to go higher than Cloud 9!

You went ON the house? Will the rain or snow wash it down or is someone going to have to get into a HazMat suit to remove it?

Gorn, you can go ON the house but I prefer going IN the house. Especially in bad weather.
This applies to airplanes and spaceships, too.
