  4. Semi Humor - for veterans only!(or those that appreciate them)

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    EVERYTHING I EVER NEEDED TO KNOW IN LIFE I LEARNED AS A HELICOPTER CREW IN VIETNAM.

    - Once you are in the fight, it is way too late to wonder if this is a good idea.

    - It is a fact that helicopter tail rotors are instinctively drawn toward trees, stumps, rocks, etc. While it may be possible to ward off this natural event some of the time, it cannot, despite the best efforts of the crew, always be prevented. It's just what they do.

    - NEVER get into a fight without more ammunition than the other guy.

    - The engine RPM and the rotor RPM must BOTH be kept in the GREEN. Failure to heed this commandment can affect the morale of the crew.

    - Cover your Buddy, so he can be around to cover for you.

    - Decisions made by someone above you in the chain-of-command will seldom be in your best interest.

    - The terms Protective Armor and Helicopter are mutually exclusive.

    - Sometimes, being good and lucky still is not enough.

    - "Chicken Plates" are not something you order in a restaurant.

    - If everything is as clear as a bell, and everything is going exactly as planned, you're about to be surprised.

    - Loud, sudden noises in a helicopter WILL get your undivided attention.

    - The BSR (Bang Stare Red) Theory states that the louder the sudden bang in the helicopter, the quicker your eyes will be drawn to the gauges. The longer you stare at the gauges the less time it takes them to move from green to red.

    - No matter what you do, the bullet with your name on it will get you. So, too, can the ones addressed "To Whom It May Concern".

    - If the rear echelon troops are really happy, the front line troops probably do not have what they need.

    - If you are wearing body armor, they will probably miss that part.

    - Happiness is a belt-fed weapon.

    - Having all your body parts intact and functioning at the end of the day beats the alternative.

    - If you are allergic to lead, it is best to avoid a war zone.

    - It is a bad thing to run out of airspeed, altitude, and ideas all at the same time.

    - Hot garrison chow is better than hot C-rations which, in turn, are better than cold C-rations, which are better than no food at all. All of these, however, are preferable to cold rice balls, even if they do have the little pieces of fish in them.

    - Everybody's a hero ... on the ground ... in the club ... after the fourth drink.

    - A free fire zone has nothing to do with economics.

    - The further you fly into the mountains, the louder the strange engine noises become.

    - Medals are OK, but having your body and all your friends in one piece at the end of the day is better.

    - Being shot hurts.

    - "Pucker Factor" is the formal name of the equation that states the more hairy the situation is, the more of the seat cushion will be sucked up your *******. It can be expressed in its mathematical formula of S (suction) + H (height) above ground) + I (interest in staying alive) + T (# of tracers coming your way)

    - Thus the term '****!' can also be used to denote a situation where high Pucker Factor is being encountered.

    - Thousands of Vietnam Veterans earned medals for bravery every day. A few were even awarded.

    - Running out of pedal, fore or aft cyclic, or collective are all bad ideas. Any combination of these can be deadly.

    - There is only one rule in war: When you win, you get to make up the rules.

    - C-4 can make a dull day fun.

    - There is no such thing as a fair fight-only ones where you win or lose.

    - If you win the battle you are entitled to the spoils. If you lose you don't care.

    - Nobody cares what you did yesterday or what you are going to do tomorrow. What is important is what you are doing-NOW-to solve our problem.

    - Always make sure someone has a P-38. Uh, that's a can opener for those of you who aren't military.

    - Prayer may not help . . . but it can't hurt.

    - Flying is better than walking. Walking is better than running. Running is better than crawling. All of these, however, are better than extraction by a Med-Evac, even if it is, technically, a form of flying.

    - If everyone does not come home, none of the rest of us can ever fully come home either.

    - Do not fear the enemy, for your enemy can only take your life. It is far better that you fear the media, for they will steal your HONOR.

    - A grunt is the true reason for the existence of the helicopter. Every helicopter flying in Vietnam had one real purpose: To help the grunt. It is unfortunate that many helicopters never had the opportunity to fulfill their one true mission in life, simply because someone forgot this fact.

    - If you have not been there and done that . . . you probably will not understand most of these.

    and the forum was closed down because of the flak i got for speaking my mind

    when they reopened the forum

    they emailed me and asked me to participate

    so i did

    but havent posted to that

    forum for some time .

    the board is full of gay people and you have to be careful how you word your posts .

    once i posted about a puff of smoke

    and by mistake i posted poofs

    and my did i get the rasberry

    another we were having a discussion on language

    the way we say things in the south pacific

    and i happened to post about the races like welsh scotch irish

    and i included the bowbells language

    cockney.

    and my did i get roasted for the first 4 letters .

    in the off topic section any thing goes.

    so i view that board as hypocritics

  12. Hi Bubbabob, I think the things Tenmm are talking about are the cardboard sun shields that folks put in their windshield to keep the sunrays out of their cars.  ....And the fact someone would drive with a sheet of cardboard covering their windshield is hysterical!!  :D

    Our lawnmower and brokensnowblower each have warnings about not sticking your hands in the machine while the blades are moving....duh....!

    McDonald's coffee was always too darned hot anyways...  I hate to say it, but I almost side with the ol'lady! :thumbsup:

    WHOA, Marty!!  You look different!  Brisbane Tigers--Futbol Team??

    he has quite a talent when it comes to animation

  13. do you use an appli called.

    imgholderv2.i have it installed but havent explored it yet

    i had problems with photobucket.

    some time ago it wouldnt let me install

    i went in to see if i had it blocked.

    so im not sure what went wrong

    however im off to try again

    thanks

    some how i seem to remember handplane

    said you would be the personb to ask.

    for some days now ive tried to send images to the board.

    i tried infranview.

    but couldnt find the option.

    i was able to get my avatar with infranview.

    here and at g4

    but transferring these images

    has me working

    thanks for the info

    marty

  14. Marty you need to join an on-line host for the pics. Like  photobucket It's free, you up-load your pics and even flash there and link it here. Very easy.  That's what the IMG code button is for. Or PhotoBucket does it for you already coded. Just remember, if you take the image out of your host it dissapears here.

    <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

    thanks bozodog

    i have an image appli on my compt tho it isnt Photobucket

    but ile try that

    thanks again

    marty

  15. looks as tho i spoke to soon i got one of those

    how to make your self bigger in certain places

    tho it was only one. im so peeved.

    because i thought i had it under control

    and i notice it was multiposted

    and all the addresses are the the same

    isp as mine

    bloody seven of them

    marty

  16. you have got your self in a pickle.

    if you want to transfer your data to another hdd.

    IF you are using XP

    there is a way you can transfer data from one drive to another.

    start- all programs -accesorys -sys tools- transfer wizard

    try that.i havent done it my self so you will have read the info

    and follow the screens .

    then-

    have a look in start -search- allfiles and folders

    type the name of the files in the search box and see if you can recover some of them there .

    tho it may be to late

    like tictoc says they may be overwritten

    next time it would be a good idea to uninstall

    in safe mode that way

    your files are not attached to important

    things like dll files

    tho you can still recover dll files

    good luck and post back and let us know on your progress

  17. A guy was sitting quietly reading his paper when his wife walked

    up behind him and whacked him on the head with a magazine.

    "What was that for?" he asked. "That was for the piece of paper

    in your pants pocket with the name Laura Lou written on it," she replied.

    "Two weeks ago when I went to the races, Laura Lou was the name of one of

    the horses I bet on," he explained.

    "Oh honey, I'm sorry," she said. "I should have known there was a good

    explanation.

    Three days later he was watching a ballgame on TV when she

    walked up and hit him in the head again, this time with the iron skillet,

    which knocked him out cold. When he came to, he asked, "What the hell was

    that for?"

    She replied, "Your horse called to see if the coast was clear."

  18. Bonehead Awards go to all those people who made it necessary for:

    - The manufacturer of a toilet brush to include the warning, "Do

    not use for personal hygiene."

    - The manufacturer of a scooter to provide a warning "This

    product moves when used."

    - The manufacturer of a digital thermometer to instruct "Once

    used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally."

    - An electric blender manufacturer to warn "Never remove food or

    other items from the blades while the product is operating."

    - a company making a small 3 inch air-filled clear plastic

    pillow for packing to state that the pillow cannot be used as a

    floatation device.

  19. here is another by bill mallenson

    If you can speak Southern, you'll understand

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    There was this fellow from Texas who had a flat tire.

    He pulled off on the side of the road, jumped out of his car walked down the hillside and picked a bunch of wildflowers, and proceeded to put one bouquet of the flowers in front of the car and one behind it. Then he got back in the car to wait.

    A passerby studied the scene as he drove by and was so curious he turned around and went back. He asked the fellow what the problem was.

    The man replied, "I have a flat tarr." In response the passerby asked, "But what's with the flowers?" The man responded, "When you break down they tell you to put flares in the front and flares in the back! I never did understand it neither."
