fun run in an active combat zone is when your bowels decide to evacuate the 16 pounds of condensed MRE matter in your colon and the shitters are on the other side of the COP

I'm legit surprised this is the first time something like this has happened(unless another run got attacked and I've forgotten about it) If you are drawing combat pay, it is not garrison and stuff like that is stupid on so many levels.

BAF has pretty tight security. That's not to say it isn't vulnerable (obviously). Two of my guys did uncover an ID counterfeiting cell run by LN contractors while we were doing construction there, which prompted interviews with the FBI.

To be fair, he has painted 98 portraits - presumably from photos - so the composition options are limited

There's a million things you can do with space/color/etc beyond "that sure is a face." Check out Saturnino Herran, Phillip Gurrey or Lucien Freud. W is just a simple dude who doesn't have the orientation to do anything beyond surface level poo poo.

Hahaha Republicans are going to poo poo themselves over this; https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/10/13/trump-just-laid-out-a-pretty-radical-student-debt-plan/ As somebody who's paying $1500 a month in student loans, this pleases me.

Hahaha, I'm dying. To think, just a few months ago we were talking about how Trump doesn't even have the ability to pivot for the general. Well, there it is. There's the pivot. We are the chumps who didn't understand how the real world works.

We are the chumps who didn't understand how the real world works. That was from October. He said some things back then which are now disappearing quote:Gone from the seven-point list (PDF) Trump put forth during his election campaign is a plan to allow the import of prescription medications. Also gone is a plan to require price transparency in healthcare, something the vast majority of Americans would likely support. There’s also no further mention of reforming mental health programs in the country or making individuals' healthcare premiums tax-deductible.

Privatizing Medicare is going to be insanely unpopular move, I can't wait to watch the GOP cut their own throats because they don't know the temperature of the room they've walked into.

I will poo poo myself (in a good way) if Trump ends up being effective and manages to kill both the Republican and Democrat parties.

They had fun runs and shadow runs drat near every weekend. Show up at 0530, sign up, get a free t-shirt. It's such a garrison atmosphere that the prevailing attitude seems to be that as long as you're inside the T-Walls and you don't get tagged by IDF, you're good. Latin Dancing Night at the Green Bean on Thursdays, drink a mango smoothie, dance with the cute Air Force chicks, go home sober and unfucked, hey it's just like being stateside.

Prop Wash posted:what the hell is a shadow run http://www.baa.org/races/boston-marathon/event-information/military-programs/boston-marathon-afghanistan-results.aspx Do a "shadow" 5k/10k/marathon/whatever at BAF at the same time the real deal is happening back in the states. I think they even had it set up to where if you qualified in certain of the shadow runs at Bagram, you could automatically register for the Boston Marathon. Provided you'd be back home by then.
