I remember the KC-135 engine runs, especially at night. Tremendously loud. A C-5 almost landed on me one foggy night. Max of 20 feet over me.

I liked the Air Force. At times, I think about had I stayed in; but then I remember, I wouldn't have the daughter that I have. Wouldn't want that to happen.

Originally posted by MrFun View PostYeah, you don't say. Out here in eastern Iowa somewhere at a convenience store/gas station, two Mormon guys were filling up their car while I filled mine up on the other side.
The two of 'em were very polite and well-spoken, but perhaps not the right ones to be trying to persuade a cynical atheist gay man to change his ways...Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

I don't even answer them anymore. Just shut the door before they start talking. Saves everyone time."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

People who have dignity don't go door to door trying to brainwash you.
I consider religion to be a personal matter and I consider proselytizers rude, condescending, and insulting regardless of their manners.
Are you also unfailingly polite to telemarketers?"The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Originally posted by molly bloom View PostI was approached by two over here. They were extremely cute in a fresh faced American way- one dark, one blond. All I could think of when they were trying to inveigle me into praying and coming to a meeting, was what a threesome would be like with them, and if they were wearing their regulation Mormon underwear. There's a scene in, erm, an 'art' film called 'Buckleroos II', where pair of missionaries are.... shown some interesting rodeo routines by a cowboy. Very Tom Mix. Anyway...

ACK!Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!
