Damn Sikboy, you're killing me,  "Originally Spewed by Vorticon "

Back at ya HardTail,  I cant think of a better way to waste a Friday at work than trolling the BBS.   Always fun.

(Actually I could probably think of a better way to waste a Friday, but I was referring to wasting the day but still sitting at my desk and looking like I was working)  
I'll feel guilty on Monday when I realize I got so much work to do.

I think Top Gun has long been overlook for its contributions to the military community as a whole.    And Pearl Harbor?  What else can be said that hasn't already been said (over and over again).
Pearl Harbor is released and suddenly everyone is pushing for the P-40.  Coincidence?  I think not,  more like a conspiracy.

Come on, how am I supposed to dodge your rounds if I cant see your tracers.  
I expect all of you Pee-51-NoTracers-ShootingMyTailOff-Cheaters to turn your tracers back on now.    
Thank you
We now return you to your regularly scheduled whine.

MajTom,

Couldn't help but laugh when I read this. In all my time with AH I've never used tracers in fighters. Only the odd occasion when in a Buff or GV and even then I often turn them off when in a Flak Panzer.

Good Luck on your campaign to have the cheaters like me switch them on  :-)

I'm glad everybody got a laugh out of this little thread this afternoon (except for Vorticon, I'm not sure if he got it or not, I know Canadians have a sense of humor, look at William Shatner)

Slapshot, I dont think I'm quite ready to give up my day job.

Anyway this thread only exists because so few gave so much for so many.  (or something like that, kinda plagerized Winston Churchill and Spock).

Thanks HardTail for taking the bait and getting the ball rolling.
AKSwulfe, Sikboy, banana, and Eagler thanks for the cues and assists.
Vruth, good attempt at a whine within a troll and sticking up for the canadians (somebody has to) and Vorticon working on a whine with in a whine within a troll  or was that a troll within a whine within a troll (I'm so confused!!!)

Glad we all had fun, great way to finish a week.

CYA up there
AirScrew out

No canadians were harmed in the writing of the thread.
If any canuck feels a need to exact any revenge on my person or plane you'll have to wait till after Sunday, I'm out of town at a bowling tournament in Schulenberg.
