Is this group PC? :mrgreen:
Well, as I said in the other thread about that thread, I'd have closed it a long time ago. Not due to the joke itself, but to nix all the pointless fighting. No one's mind is getting changed in that thread and letting it go on is clearly fracturing people that I know used to get along.

I only go back if my attention is drawn to it (and I haven't logged in since shortly after b3 played the ass and got perma-banned), but what I see saddens me. There is little life beyond the same questions that have been asked for years getting the same answers. When there is a glimmer of life it seems to devolve into a shit show.
It is now closed with a follow-up caveat "It's a joke..."

On a serious note, my father was apart of the hydrogen bomb testing while he was in the Navy. He used to fly through the explosion and take measurements. Yep, now you know why I'm so crazy. Surprisingly enough, he is still alive to talk about it.
Holy Crap! Good on your Dad. Glad he got through it ok and is still here today. Tell him I said "Thanks" for what he did.

...and that does explain much about you though...

I'm disappointed in Bob. I always thought he was above the petty crap like he expressed in that comment (unlike other mods).

Jake hasn't been on the forums these days. Got tired of people trolling him. But I found him in his natural habitat. :lol:

Safe to assume he's not stuck and just stopped for the photo op?

Jake is *never* stuck! :lol: He'll find a way out of the mud. His marine buddy from Virginia is with him.

Yep.. It was an old trout pond that filled with silt from the recent floods.. I sank the BV202 in about 20 seconds.
Snatched it out with the dozer. No worries.

Just drove through the river a few times to clean the mud off, and its good to go!

Ah... after a nice river bath I'll say she cleans up nicely!!!
