Donald Rumsfeld is a former Naval aviator. Did you know this?

PS Just in case I forgot, thank you for your service!

LOL!

This was supposedly the (true!) response to a Boston dowager type by a salty Navy Admiral at a cocktail party when asked: "What is it like to land an airplane on an aircraft carrier at night."

"Ma'am, the three greatest joys a man can experience are catching a three wire, having an orgasm, and taking a really good dump. A night carrier landing oftentimes allows you to experience all three simultaneously."

[Taxman]

I'll be on the lookout for it. Do the troops like it?

A belated welcome to FRee Republic.

And, exactly, how much do you know about Naval Aviators?

And, further, how did you come to be in possession of this knowledge?

LOL!

What I like best about Rummy is the fact that (in spite of his spectacular resume) he's still married to the mother of his children and is a good husband, father and grandfather.

Successful men who are also sleazeballs in their personal lives are simply losers who failed at the most important job they had: husband and father. Jack Welch is a perfect example. I'd mention The First Rapist, also, except I don't really consider him to be successful.

I liked cat shots -- particularly the old H-8 hydraulic cat shots at night. Quite a lick!

But I really loved the challenge each carrier approach and landing presented me.

See my post #50.

That was the first thing I noticed about him. I was meant to be listening to him talking about Force-sizing (I was researching a feature I was wriitng about him) but my hormones interfered and I couldn't take my eyes off those shoulders. I gather he works out in a gym in DC and is in superb shape. Hoo-ah!! as our splendid troops shout when he visits them..Lucky Mrs R.

"Do the troops like it?"

The E-6 Recruiter I talked to does. And thank YOU for your service and continuing efforts.

Looks like Bob is working on something as yet unpublicized with VetsCoR as contact for any Veterans groups.

We're also fleshing out our Veterans Walk for Freedom in July. With the right planning and promotion, that could be fun and get some media attention. We've got you slotted in somewhere between Annapolis and DC. We plan to have a changing of the guard, if you will, each morning to hand off the documents to the next Walker(s). I would really like you to take the segment from Annapolis if at all posible. We'll talk later.

[Taxman]

I can do that!

Excellent! Thank you!

[sfRummygirl]

Thank you! I actually only know about Rummy. Alot about him, as many of us girls now do, because we have such crushes on him.

And teeth ground to nubbins or is it

wet spots on pants front and back?

Champion wrestler, Navy pilot, squash player, skydiver--sexy stuff. I gather he works out at a DC gym and is BUILT. He was on BBC TV special this week; one UK Tv reviewer said he was 'so urbane' you 'could almost hear him purring.' I'd be happy to make him purr any time.

[sfRummygirl]

Oh you "Gather' that he does, hmm? I wonder where you heard that one. Bad girl.

[zilberzee]

hee hee.
the man is simply an intoxicating cocktail of the Best of Yankeehood....
