Ok I know everyone seems to hate lately.

I am still proud as frack to live here.

Post pics and stories or whatever! The blah blah bull about politics take it to your twitter account. This is for reasons why our country is still a great place.

I will start with a few of my favorite things that Santa never brought me.

I've been around some of the gov's coolest toys since 89 and still love it. I was walking through my hangar fri night and stopped behind an F-15 just to stare at the awesomeness for a few minutes.

used to see these flying around over my house every day growing up, but for some reason though they switched the b2's. at least they're still building -15's though (and i get to make parts for them at the new job) so i still get to see one every once in a while.

I love all the different scenery all over the county. I have been to 24 states and lived in 7. I always end up coming back to FL. Other than the weather and the race tracks being open year round here are a couple of my favorite places:

Sebastian Inlet. Favorite place to fish and camp.


One of my favorite places to hunt. Tosohatchee WMA.


And if you want to go be in awe at some of what we have accomplished, Kennedy Space Center:

What part do you work on? I did some energetic work on them when I was with D&Z and GDOS. Nice system.

Is that MRLS on an M113 chassis? Seems they can mount that system on just about anything!

I wonder if you could get 2 or 3 launchers on an HEMTT?
