The Pentagon reports on incursions by Russian military pilots into NATO airspace and the multiple complaints from American pilots about them. The primary complaint from the U.S. pilots is the Russians are using some type of letter-substitution code which results in a different word for everything.
(Ed: let me guess. The code is Russian?)
Yes. Advise the Pentagon of this fact and you could be the next head of the CIA.
The American military is one of the greatest triumphs of the U.S. educational system as, if the system really educated anyone, such a huge military would not be necessary because no-one would take such shit jobs if they had ever been trained in anything useful.
It's somewhat different with pilots as they're just happy they finally convinced someone to let them fly multi-million-dollar aircraft so they usually won't say too much so long as we let them keep playing with these great toys.
That people consider ability as a fighter pilot to be qualification to be an American President shows not so many people watched "Top Gun." Either that or they think Tom Cruise would be a great choice to run the free world. That theory sure came up roses with the Bush family, didn't it.
(Ed: George Bush makes you think of Tom Cruise?)
George Bush makes me think of Andy Devine.
So, if you're talking about the leader of the free world, who's your huckleberry.
Note: unlike George Bush, ever'body loved Andy Devine.
(Ed: is there a point to this?)
Nah. I got up and saw a picture of the Russians flying a gold-plated Tu-58 bomber and I thought that was pretty cool. That got me thinking ... as much as America has to pay for all these aircraft, they should be gold-plated too. And the pilots should all wear mink. Yah, mink.
