Shortly after 9-11 I attended a Texas A&M football game - there was a direct, low-level flyover by a BUFF (B-52) - it knocked our sox's off...

All I could thank of was the fact that I would hate to be under one of these big boys on a carpet-bombing run...

I completely understand. My heart was pounding on the several occasions one of the big babies flew overhead. The one that unnerved me the most was the one that was black and you couldn't hear it coming. When it was overhead, it just turned up it's nose and went straight up. Then the ground rumbled and my heart was in my mouth. THAT'S THE ONE THAT GOT ME.

BTW — Happy New Year to everyone. My very best wishes to all FReepers as we enter 2009. God bless us EVERY one.
