Say Hi to PD for me. It's not the end of the world.
>>> without the need to win the argument, slap someone else down, insult someone, or generally behave like an a-hole. <<<<<
Now what kind of fighter pilot would you be without that!
We have dem bastids right here, skulking 'round New Yawk.
THEY CREEP ME OUT!
Thanks for the ping, T.

"I wont return to Free Republic until I can write something without the need to win the argument, slap someone else down, insult someone, or generally behave like an a-hole."
What fun is that. While I think the discourse should be elevated here, I think civility can be overdone. I think ach of usshould tryto win the argument, I rspect even those I utterly disagree with hee, you have honed my saber in the process.
Naw, that's one of them MTA-f**kers.
;O)
-good times, G.J.P.(Jr.)
Hey, I recently rode them trains. You are second to say 'EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW???!!!"
Unless you mean the tagline...then, yeah, you're first.
Now THAT was a worthwhile vanity.
Hope you are well.
Ah, a Sinatra fan, eh?
We need your wisdom on all things military aviation!!
Hey, the retirement of the GREATEST FIGHTER THE NAVY HAS EVER FLOWN is a bummer to me too...really tugs at my emotions. Shoulda seen me at Abbotsford (Canada) Airshow in 2003, when one of the last F-14 Demos was executed...I was visibly shaking hearing that familiar whine of the engines coming from the tarmac....:-)
That was one fine machine I worked on (avionics) for the first 10 years of my Navy career...and those great memories can never be taken away....

I am so thrilled to hear from PD! Thank you for the memories..I'll say a prayer for you,PD..I think you are being hard on yourself. I just miss you ,FRiend.
Start posting again, Pukin Dog. There are many things to discuss.
Thanks for posting this arasina - I appreciate the opportunity to let PD know I'm thinking of him.
In fact the other day I was enjoying watching a special on the History channel about the F-14. They did the whole history of the aircraft. The whole time I was watching - I kept wondering how PD was doing - as we had discussed a few things in private mail - and I was sorry to see that I couldn't get a message to him. However, I am hoping someone will get these scriptures to him - because they explain exactly what I would say to him if I could:
Eph 1:4 - Even as [in His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy (consecreated and set apart for Him) and blameless in His sight, even above reproach, before Him in love.
vs. 8 - Which he lavished on us in every kind of wisdom and understanding (practical insight and prudence).
vs. 9 - Making known to us the mystery (secret) of His will (of His plan, of His purpose). [And it is this:] In accordance with His good pleasure (His merciful intention) which He had previously purposed and set forth in Him.
Then in vs. 17, Paul has a prayer: [For I always pray to] The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him.
Vs. 18 - By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set apart ones).
Vs. 19 - And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength.
Eph 2:1 - And YOU [He made alive] ....
PD - since YOU have been made alive .. then you can know and understand the mysteries and secrets of the kingdom. Please re-read the first 2 chapters of Ephesians many times - it is an explanation of GOD's immeasurable love for you.
PD - hurry back - we love you too!
