All right!!  My man.

Guess I struck a nerve, eh?  I mean you really went into orbit.

What was it, "flatulent ass" or something else I said?

Must have been "spit on the flag".

Of course your being a minister's son and military brat explains a lot.

Now, now.  Calm down.  Just an observation that may or may not be true.

I'll concede your point about the level of intelligence in the Air Force.
Besides, we don't want cannon fodder to think too much anyway, do we?  Every
time I pass by the arcades and see the 'future tank drivers of America' hard
at practice I shake my head and strengthen my resolve never to send my kids
to public school.

There are some of the finest men and women in America hard at work in all
branches of the services.  Also some of the worst.  I served with guys who
were one step from doing hard time.  Some of them have no doubt made it by
now.  I'll still take our armed forces to those of any other nation.  Not sure
I can put up a complete defense of that, but it depends on what you choose to
define as 'good' in an army.  

Sorry it seemed to you that I was trying to roger you.  After all, as you said
it is net.flame.  You're ok in my book.  

Keep chargin'
