Has anyone ever seen pictures of the nose art "The Dark Slide"?? It was on a B-25. I saw a black and white of it years ago but have never been able to find it again.

Funny how tragedy puts an end to the arguing, and rightly so.

Rita and Mother.

The T-28 with "Zorro's mistress" is now based here in Wendover.

1-Rita all the way!
2-Lady Lodestar is by far the best (no home squadron cheering here) ;)~
3-Come on Craig that gal on the polished BT-13 is about the most cross eyed woman I have ever seen, nice bod, she just needs a USMC flag over her face for laughs.

The older and creakier I get the more difficulty I have sleeping in a tent at Oshkosh for several days. But it was worth it.

Whaddya mean, which one?



An old bull and a young bull were up on a hillside looking down at a herd of heifers.

"Whoo-eee!" said the young bull. "I'm'a run down this hill and get me one a' them heifers! Whoo-hoo!"

"Go on ahead, son," said the old bull.

"I'll walk down and get the rest."



Youth is wasted on the young...
