Charlie: Thank you. Hello. We will be dealing with F-5s and A-4s as our MiG simulators. Now, then, as most of you know, the F-5 doesn't have the thrust-to-weight ratio that the MiG-28 has. And, it doesn't bleed energy below 300 knots like the MiG-28. However, the MiG-28 does have a problem with its inverted flight tanks. It won't do a negative G push over. The latest intelligence tells us that the most it will do is one negative -- Excuse me, Lieutenant, is there something wrong? Maverick: Yes, ma'am, the data on the MiG is inaccurate. Charlie: How's that lieutenant? Maverick: Well, I just happened to see a MiG-28 do -- Goose: We!...We. Maverick: Sorry, Goose. WE happened to see a MiG-28 do a 4G negative dive. Charlie: Where did you see this? Maverick: That's classified. Charlie: It's what? Maverick: It's classified. I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you. Charlie: Lieutenant, I have top secret clearance. The Pentagon sees to it that I know more than you. Maverick: Well, ma'am, it doesn't seem so in this case now does it. Charlie: So, Lieutenant, where exactly were you? Maverick: Well, WE -- Goose: Thank you. Maverick: -- started up on his six, when he pulled through the clouds, and then I moved in above him. Charlie: Well, if you were directly above him, how could you see him? Maverick: Because I was inverted. Iceman: (cough) B------t. Goose: No, he was, man. It was a really great move. He was inverted. Charlie: You were in a 4G inverted dive with a MiG-28? Maverick: Yes, ma'am. Charlie: At what range? Maverick: About two meters. Goose: Well, it's actually about one and a half, I think. It was one and a half. I've got a great Polaroid of it, and he's, he's right there. Must be one and a half. Maverick: It was a nice picture.... Goose: Thanks, man. I like my pictures.... Charlie: Uh, Lieutenant. What were you doing there? Goose: Communicating. Maverick: Communicating. Keeping up foreign relations. I was, uh, you know, giving him "the bird." Goose: You know -- "the finger." Charlie: Yes, I know the finger, Goose. Goose: I'm, I'm sorry. I hate it when it does that. I'm sorry. Excuse me. Charlie: [to Maverick] So you're the one.
Not the week to go getting "Cocky" on me there, gringo. My thread. Merge it with the similar one started today if it matters.
I had lunch with 2 tenured professors today. They explained why the game would be played in Columbia. All about the rate of evaporation times the rate of drainage in conjunction with the rate of the infustructure returning to normal. I barely understood a word they said. Not because it was so complex. It was because both of them had bad colds and were coughing and sneezing every other word. Seems they had forgotten to get out of the rain
I think this is leaning toward a 6pm kickoff in Tiger Stadium...State police received a text guaging availablity and stated that time for kickoff. I can't see this game being played at USC...Too many variables and possibility that LSU would have to fly in same day which doesn't make sense for a 11am game. Off Site options seem to be falling short.
