So the new patch eliminates a strategy so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel? You mean I can't put my undies on my head and stick two pencils up my nose and be invalided back to old Blighty? Bummer.

BTW - Warspite have you ever seen a grown man naked?

No, but thanks for asking.

Well, well, well, Scraps is a boy dog isn't he?

Warspite it looks like you picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue. That response was sluggish, like a wet sponge.

Warspite I am sorry. This might be my last response for a while... My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar. I can't tell you when I'll be back. It's classified.

You should have left the question to me to ask!! [:)]


Okay MJ I understand, but with you gone just remember: The life of everyone on this forum depends upon just one thing: finding someone back there who can not only fly this plane, but who didn't have fish for dinner.

Warspite1 listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.

Warspite... well, I don't have anything to say, you've done the best you could. You really have, the best you could. You can't expect to win em all. But, I want to tell you something I've kept to myself through these years. I was in the war myself, medical corps. I was on late duty one night when they brought in a badly wounded pilot from one of the raids. He could barely talk. He looked at me and said, "The odds were against us up there, but we went in anyway, I'm glad the Captain made the right decision." The pilot's name was George Zip. The last thing he said to me, "Doc," he said, "some time when the crew is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to get out there and give it all they got and win just one for the Zipper. I don't know where I'll be then, Doc," he said, "but I won't smell too good, that's for sure."

Rex Kramer: Our only hope is to build this man up. We gotta give him all the confidence we can.

Rex Kramer: Striker, have you ever flown a multi-engine plane before?
Ted Striker: No, never.
Rex Kramer: S***! This is a God damn waste of time! There's no way he can land this plane!

Oh No - I've been nervous lot of times?

No wonder you're upset. She's lovely. And a darling figure... supple, pouting breasts... firm thighs. It's a shame you two don't get along.

Warspite, do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, that's a dumb question... skip that.

There's no reason to become alarmed, and we hope you'll enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?
