    yea, I recall that back there... In the area I live they planted these pine trees & you can see the green clouds coming out w a slight breeze..

    I don't really have allergies but some times there is just so much pollen you are practically just choking on it..

    Stay safe & hopefully they are right about the heat & humidity, one thing "ya'll" won't have a shortage of pretty soon..lol

    I have allergies too. Sometimes I get these sneezing fits, I'll sneeze 10-20 times, the throat tickle cough, and the packed sinuses to the point I can't breathe through my nose at night. I guess I'll have to avoid people! I told the GF she has to stay more than 6 feet away from me (she called me an ass). We pretty much have what we need, stores are still open to get what we might need later. All is well here, so far...

    I have that game! It's stashed away in one of my closets on the top shelf. My friends and I played that game for hours when we were kids.

    Thanks for your service. Sad they couldn't make good use of the wiser, more experienced retirees in some capacity.

    More like Acey-Deucey and Liar's Dice. I never saw a game of "battleship" in the service.

    I kicked a lot of jets in the air. Depending on what you flew, you might have flown one.

    I was a Helo Bubba out of MCAS Tustin/MCAS Futenma but did a deployment for a month at Iwakuni when their SAR 46s broke down and they borrowed some of ours. Being they were station and we were wing, my squadron sent 3 HACs to go with the two birds. That was early 80s. Mid-80s the Marine Corps RIF'd 400 pilots including yours truly and being typical Marine Corps they told us "You can do something else in the Marine Corps, you can get out or you can fly Navy".
    About 300 of us said "Anchors Aweigh, baby!". I flew ASW of aircraft carriers and later a T-34C flight instructor.

    A very (shitter drivers) fly USAF and a couple went Army and Coast Guard. Others got out and went Secret Service, FBI and Customs.

    Yep, not much else to really count on thus far...
