holocaust bloopers posted:Ya I got a taxi one night from a bar in OKC which is an AWACS town if there ever was any and the driver swore he flew on the E-3 as a radar tech which is totally believable but then he went on about how part of his job was to clamber up the struts and into the dome for maintenance during flight. So......probably not true. Fakers need to get their poo poo straight. Just lie and say you were a cop. That's one of the stories techs tell to gently caress with people, so now I'm actually convinced that dude was actually an ART.

Speaking of climbing in domes and stories to gently caress with people  This is the D1G ball. It's the second largest freestanding sphere on the planet, behind Epcot. When the Navy was first developing nuclear reactors, they really didn't know if they'd work, melt or just explode - especially the early liquid sodium cooled ones. So, as the Navy is wont to do, they brute forced the gently caress out of it by building the entire back half of a missile cruiser in the middle of nowhere, hundreds of miles from the nearest ocean. They built it inside this fuckoff huge ball, big and thick enough that any imaginable explosion would be contained completely. This is the kind of overengineering that let the Navy be the only major branch to have never had a reactor meltdown. Now that's the real story. But the thing is, you have this hugeass ball out in the forest, at a super sketchy base that not only isn't Navy, not even DoD, it's not even government run at all. The locals could see the ball, they saw the weirdos who worked on site, but they never saw the ship. So they just made up wild conjectures as to what was going on there. Eventually it became mostly a training facility, and got somewhat less hush-hush, and then this particular site was retired, but the ball remains. You can tell people what it was and why, but they won't believe you (it's on Wikipedia.) The best local-generated idea I heard was that it was a submarine refueling facility; the subs would presumably transit underground, hundreds of miles, to surface inside the dome, their fission cores kept hidden from the prying eyes of enemy satellites. Tales of working at a reactor refueling facility make for poor pillow talk, though. My friends and I decided that we would have the best luck with the students of the local all-girls college if we instead pretended to be naval aviators. Young test pilots for the R-114, a stealth spy jet so secret we could only fly it inside the dome. This tale had surprising success, possibly just from the sheer chutzpah of telling it, but also in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 where we embellished with details on how we were heading straight into harm's way, a little scared, but so proud to serve our country. R-114 is gas for an air conditioner.

Colorado Springs is fairly inoculated with bullshit military stuff, considering that the Air Force Academy, NORAD, Ft Carson, Peterson AFB, and Schriever AFB are all within spitting distance of each other. The place was teeming with high and rights as well as lovely yellow ribbon bumper stickers. I would assume most people could tell you what an 11B was, but civilians in Colorado Springs could give you the duty description of a 92A3L7 well after a few Fat Tires or Coors light had been pumped into them. But goddamn if being one of the nation's leading OE-254 pilots didn't impress. It was a small prototype fighter aircraft with a large emphasis on enhancing communication abilities on the battlefield. It wasn't on the stealthy side, so you always had to consider SLOCTOP when planning your missions.

Apparently Popeye's red beans & rice is known for being some of the best in the country. I dunno, I'm from Boston. But this recipe tries to recreate it, and god drat is it good. edit- also, Charley's Philly chicken is delicious

As the child of a food court manager, Charley's and Popeyes had their place, especially Popeyes in Germany where that's the only drat place you can get fried chicken. What really upset me was when our Baskin Robbins in Wuerzberg was replaced by a drat Cinnabun.
