  1. well this happened saturday night for me, i went to see a girl out saturday, she wound up being a putz, but i hung out with another one that i knew through my sister, and went out saturday with her my sister, and her brother, made a couple of new friends, and a new drinking buddy to go out with. so i didnt get the crazy chic, but i made a couple of new friends, and had a good time anyway.


  2. i physical manifestations, and spiritually YES! physically speaking in the last year i have had a few come into my life if even for just a few short hours, that have made me realize many things in my life, and help me through the bad times, or realize after the fact that the bad was worth the good coming. i would say about 4, plus one here at STF.NET i wont say any names, but we all know her by two simple letters as her initials, shes been really cool too, with her kindness, and helpfulness, and good advice i would have to say RC is one too, oops did i just say her name :bow: . anyway spiritually as well there were a number of times in my life i should be dead, or badly mutilated, and all i can say is for some reason GOD, sent his ANGELS to watch over me. i take this moment to THANK GOD for this. ....................................... so yes i do beleive in angels. after all one that came into my life for a short time, was named, ANGEL, she helped give me the strengh to deal with many things. which i realized after the fact.


  3. so does that mean the apache shall remain the leading chopper, technology wise, or is there another in the works?

     

    BTW cool idea mr irmy. lol. thats a great show, so this is a great thread. as far as the m16 goes its the A2, the A1 was vietnam era, and compared with the A2 is a peice of junk i guess, thats the one that jammed, and malfunctioned a lot. i like the AR15, i have the lower, and am waiting for some cash to buy the rest of the parts for it.

    I saw an interview with some soldiers in Afghanistan and they said they were picking up AKs whenever they found them because they're more reliable and pack more of a punch than M16s. Then again, some of them were tank crew and didn't have much more than a pistol if I remember correctly.

    tis true, my buddy has 4 ak47's, they do pack much more of a punch, and are tons of fun to go plinkin with. i would like to get one after a while as well. just ask clint eastwood, the ak47 the prefered weapon of our enemy. heartbreak ridge, great movie.

    1860: Abraham Lincoln (assassinated)

    1880: James A. Garfield (assassinated)

    1900: William McKinley (assassinated)

    1920: Warren G. Harding (died in office)

    1960: John F. Kennedy (assassinated)

    1980: Ronald Reagan (survived assassination attempt)
