when i fight, i fight til i die or win. whether its a tank or a plane, it doesnt matter. i dont run, i might extend some. i dont ho unless im hoe'd first. i dont ram. i play as fairly as i can and try to set an example of how to have fun.

my way is not right, nor wrong, good nor bad. its just my way. if i die i get a shiny new plane after i salute the guy that killed me, if he deserves a salute.

now whats all this commotion about score???

Thanks!   :aok  :salute

Fixed.  Remember, I'm supposed to take some of the blame. :D

The lovely chap batfink aka mechanic was added to the roster last year or possibly late the year before.

That was probably the same time Changeup was turned down I guess? At the same time as his best friend pervert  :old:


 You sir are incorrect,Batty has been a trainer for several years now,he was away from the game for awhile because of RL issues and is now back and has resumed his training duties.

  The last time the trainers brought anyone onboard was when we asked Wwhiskey to be the GV trainer,about a year and a half before that Rolex requested players submit an essay on why they would be a good trainer. Rolex got many responces but we had only 2 openning so the best 2 got the spots,no one was turned down,no one was refused. The fact is there are only so many spot available so we must be selective,this doesnt mean players were turned down!

Not familiar with your sleep habits, so I'm unable to comment on that.

A simpler philosophy, whether in the arena or on the forum, is:

WWJWD (What Would John Wayne Do)?

Great measuring stick. In word or deed, would it fit John Wayne's persona?

On screen or off? I kind of like the story of him pissazzed  drunk standing on the roof of a private club throwing balls from the pool table at passing traffic. But that's just me.

Is that the John Wayne you admire?

Another off screen story has him being challenged at a party (by Errol Flynn, I believe)
to stand toe to toe on a sheet of paper and punch Flynn. Flynn wagered he couldn't.
Wayne took him up on it. Flynn went over to a nearby room, put the paper down where
the door would shut, shut the door and the party crowd giggled. Wayne stepped on
his half of the paper and punched Flynn through the door.

He was a human being, not the characters he portrayed. And I didn't say admire. Yes, I loved his characters and his image.

But WWJWDITM (What Would John Wayne Do In The Movies) is a bit too much.  ;)
