I always wanted to get my hands on one of those F-16's. They look like such slick, fast and maneuverable little fighters. Like you could control them just by flicking your wrist.

I know what you mean. I saw one of them at one Air Show I visited, where the plane simply flipped to the side for few moments, upside-down for few moments, other side for few moments, and then upright followed by a loop. But Good lord, it was loud as hell. It's strange how seeing things with your own eyes is far more fascinating than watching it on television.

Anyways, I completely blew on my AP Language Arts performance exam. All I got on the paper was a 2-sentence thesis statement and that was as far as I got. What's sickening is that I'm chuckling over it.

Chuckling… God, I've really fucked up this time. And I still have all these homework lying in front of me…

…Maybe I'm not really who I think I am.

The B1 looks like a titanic swan in flight… I think that's what the name for the Russian version is actually (or something like it). It's like a huge fighter plane that just kept growing and growing.

They don't look very manoeuvrable, but because of the weight, size and momentum, any manoeuvres a big plane like that does make look even cooler- even if it's nothing more than banking sharply to one side. :)
————————–

For Manoeuvrability though, I've always wanted my own personal little Harrier jet. One of those little things would make a fantastic sports plane. You could paint it all up with wild flouro colours and stuff… I think that'd be awesome. ^__^

russian version tu-22, almost identical. there's some charts out there that show the differences. they're not really maneuverable at all. they were designed to take off, drop a nuke on russia, (or vise versa), and keep going in the same direction. at mach 3. i tell you sexy doesnt get any better. well, it does, i just wont bore you with the details of me and my wife.

i always wanted to fly the F-16 as well. growing up, i'd never heard of the f22, and the f15 was just getting popular. (even though it had been around just 10 years less than the 16). sigh, those were my dreams…but reality hit when college cost me about 10k more than i had planned on. so now i just watch those jets take off…..

sigh, i'm sad i'm leaving my wife in the morning, but glad for the change in pace..plus she'll get to come visit me next month.

these feelings confuse me…

awwww… poor Skullbie…

rant: this:

Don't make fun of Arashi. He's hiding a horrible deformity inside his mouth.
Or maybe braces…

the braces, I mean.
I had an appointment yesterday, expecting to get them out but instead, I was told that I have to have them in for six more weeks. We've been playing this game of delaying it further for a long time. It's really annoying.

I think I'm getting my braces out soon…

Which is bad, as I want mah christmas food…
And when I had them put in, I couldn't eat for about 2 weeks…D:

Mouth problems suck. I kept getting an abscess in the same part of my mouth, and eventually had to have a tooth out. Which wouldn't have been so bad, but it was a healthy tooth and the dentist sort of missed with the anaesthetic.

Yes I can see that… your teeth look horrible! And what happened to your eye? Seriously man, you gotta take better care of yourself!

That's from my totally non-fictional life of daring adventure and such. It's impossible not to sustain a few disfiguring injuries while performing real amazing feats and actually slaying actual bad guys and that.

Hey guys…sorry I haven't updated in MONTHS…

I'm working on the new episode right now, actually.

I've been having some horrible relationship troubles, my grandfather has been in the hospital for some major surgeries, and…I'm looking for positions at other departments because of the town deciding they were going to cut the training budget after an incident I was involved in…which further kept me away from working on ANYTHING.

Shit sucks…I know…but at least I'll have the new one up by at least tomorrow if not later today

Wheee! Finished lettering :D

Now all that's left is to verify all the pages, correct any mistakes and backup everything, then I can go on with the preparation of the b&w version and procuring a bank card that will allow me to use paypal properly.

Of course all of this is kind of delayed as I recently discovered Code Geass and I've been eating through the episodes at an incredible speed (I usually do only two every day, today I did six and tomorrow watching the final 7 of season 2). That'll be an intense session :)

Code gayass is awesome, the ending is well done too.

i am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo drunk right now. i spent the night making friends of bartenders. then i came back to the hotel and had 2 hotdogs. hoping food sobers me up. but i need to be awake in 4 hours for work.

this island is excellent. went snorkeling, and saw a bunch of awesome stuff. my mask started fogging up on the way back, so visibility went from 15 ft. to about five. but then we sat out in the sun for awhile.

spent ten minutes proff reading this….everything keeps shifting…might update my situation tomorrow….

Posted at 1:12AM, Dec. 7, 2008

Damn. I wish I was there. Then I could give you a little push. Shoving drunk people around is so much fun…

My bank has been really screwing me over lately. My card expired, and they didn't send me a new one. When I phoned to ask why, the woman I was talking to repeatedly assumed it was lost, and whenever I reminded her it had expired, she was instantly suspicious, though I don't know why the hell I'd need to lie about that.

My new card arrived few days later and I activated it, but when I tried to use it, I was told it wasn't being accepted. Great. So I phoned my bank again and he tells that I've been issued a new PIN because my old card had been reported as lost. No, it was NOT FUCKING LOST, it FUCKING EXPIRED, you useless bunch of fucking morons. Apparently they thought it had expired in September, which it hadn't, it expired about a week ago, in November.

I was drunk as hell last night in Denver. That was fun.

Now my stomach has been giving me problems. So worth it

Worked by midnights this weekend, 16 hours of Christmas music (the good stuff; Bing, Dean, Frank etc) and did the 5th re-write of the remainder of Go a Viking Finishing it is a very, very, very daunting prospect as the remaining script is 100 written pages long which translates into 200-400 comic pages. So I'll be finished in 2012 or so…

And this is the shortened version of the script it used to be 30% longer…

Reading all these posts about how drunk my fellow DDers get makes me thankful I no longer drink. After I found out how many of old drinking buddies were in AA…

Have the newsposts always poped up like that when you roll over? neet

I should make a new avatar because i swear this one makes my posts crabbier(than usual)
