  1. Fast-food fish is one of the signs of the impending apocalypse. I only get burgers or ham, chicken, or beef sandwiches. Everything else = nasty!
  2. Actually, the sound of the whale-talking probe flying by in Star Trek 4 was Leonard Nimoy going "wub wub wub wub" into a mike, so such a thing is not without precedent. I heard those things flying around here all the time before the runway was shut down for repairs...like a year ago.
  3. She'll only come out at night The lean and hungry type Nothing is new, I've seen her here before Watching and waiting Ooh, she's sittin' with you but her eyes are on the door Oh-oh, here she comes Watch out boy she'll chew you up Oh-oh, here she comes She's a maneater
  4. Funny, everyone I know who's eaten at local Mexican places say the ones in the US are better because the quality of the food they cook is higher.
  5. I don't have the debrief or any screenshots, but I once fired an SRAM from my F-111 at an enemy airbase with multiple bad guys overhead. I got an insane number of kills including all 4 MiGs! It was a true lucky shot.
  6. Does the OV-10 use the generic prop sound or does it have its own?
  7. I saw the prototype at the Pima Museum in AZ. It was such an oddball to look at, granted with faded paint and sand-blasted bare metal.
  8. I DL'd phase 2, but I don't remember if I installed it... I played some of phase 1, but really not much at all. I played a lot more CFS3 w/Firepower and 1% planes by a factor of like 50. With FE/expansion/mods, I find I really don't ever think of playing OFF. That makes $50 a waste for me, although for people that love WWI sims I think it isn't a bad deal.
  9. If you only have up to PF, you can't install 4.08m. I think you can only go to 4.04? I forget exactly. 4.08m is the patch for Il-2:46, which included the 3 addons of Pe-2, 46, and Sturmoviks over Manchuria.
  10. Also included with that was Sturmoviks over Manchuria I believe. That introduced the Il-10 and a Manchuria map among other planes. Il-2:46 has everything they ever did.
  11. As you see from my sig, I know him fondly. His last role was that cow on Family Guy. He was hilarious. Also was in the first Naked Gun, very funny there, too. I only recently found out he spent the last 15 years of his life in a wheelchair due to complications from spinal surgery in the early 90s for an injury he received on a film decades ago. Nick Meyer commented that he had a limp that he covered up on film, but he asked him to let it show for the scenes after Khan was wounded at the end of the film.
  12. I played Axis and Allies to death. However, the large number of units in the later stages of the game made me write a little program in BASIC to roll the dice! Instead of taking those 6 dice and rolling them 5 times each, I could type "30" and it would randomly guess numbers from 1-6 then print it on screen. 1s - 4 2s - 6 3s - 5 4s - 5 5s - 7 6s - 3 A real time saver!
  13. I guess your dollar is smaller than ours, since my wife and I can get lunch at most fast food places for just around $11, including 2 burgers, one fries that we share, and 2 drinks.
  14. Cool Ranch or original Nacho for me. CR of course was the first non-Nacho flavor. All these others are just trendy garbage.
  15. No, today China reports the world's 3rd largest economy. They actually had it in 2007.
  16. I didn't know there were J-8 or J-10 models for LOMAC. I was surprised at the use of Pirates of the Caribbean music as well!
  17. Admiral, there be whales here!!
  18. The thing I found most fascinating was the design iterations leading to the YF-17 design showing the F-5 lineage clearly.
  19. I've not seen Phalcon on a Il-76 yet I don't think, weren't they always mounted on 707s or something so far?
  20. That Kh-31 just barely fits on the Flanker belly and it's huge, but I've not seen a comparison shot of the Brahmos missile. Of course, sometimes they stick big ones like that on the inboard wing and balance it with some other store if they need the ground clearance.
  21. There are as many differences between the YF-17 and F/A-18A as there between the F/A-18A and F/A-18E. YF-17 had USAF-standard "stick" gear like the F-15 and F-16 have, not the beefier ones the Hornet got. No dogtooth on the wing, smaller LERX's, bigger slots in the LERXs for air to pass through, funny looking stabs, the list is long. The main issue is it's really not much different from an F-16A in many ways, and since we have those a modder would have to have a lot of particular interest, which none have to date.
  22. Not forgetting, omitting! BA is great fun on my 360, on the big screen with the gamepad. It is also WWII flight. It is not a sim.

    Thank you for making the world safe from trees like that, one at a time.
  24. The biggest thing about ArmA is friendly AI is lame, so it's best to play it MP with other people playing on your side. While using the vehicles is fun, they're hardly realistic.
  25. I thought you were going to say Trivial Pursuit.
