    The F-18 Hornet. I dunno if any of these are technically Super Hornets, but they are wicked sweet all the same. This is my favorite fighter jet of all. I have six models of them. My favorite one is painted purple with lime green tiger stripes. I eat a lot of mushrooms.

    Dear Person,

    I\’m sorry I didn\’t want to but, I did when I tried to park next to you. I am not leaving my information because you chose to use two spaces and I just wanted to park in one. The scratches are because I used a towel that had sand on it to try to clean the dent/paint off. Beaches are fun!
    Please look your car over for the dent and scratches and each time you see them remember not to park in two spaces

    -Sorry!!!

    The first flight was in 1996, and 39 more were performed through the program\’s conclusion in 1999.The Bird of Prey is designed to prevent shadows and is believed to have been used to test active camouflage, which would involve its surfaces changing color or luminosity to match the surroundings. The aircraft\’s name is a reference to the Klingon Bird of Prey warship from the Star Trek television series.

    Star Trek Book Club Forums Are Now Open!

    As you all know www.startrekbookclub.com is a part of my lil web empire, and some forums just opened up over there, I figured there was a movie coming out soon, might as well capitalize on it.

    So, if you have anything star trek related to speak of, please vist forums.startrekbookclub.com/ and chat away to your heart’s content.  As it’s a part of the Tiki Web Group, your user name and password from MCS will work over there as well.

    Also: right now all offsite image loading is disabled.  I realize this sux, and I’m currently working on a work around to work around the problem, but these things take time and I have none of that right now.  I promise there will be a fix in place by the end of the weekend!*

    Game over. Geek wins.

    Michael Jordan having ‘retired, with $40 million in endorsements, makes $178,100 a day, working or not.

    * If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night while visions of sugarplums dance in his head.
    * If he goes to see a movie, it’ll cost him $7.00, but he’ll make $18,550 while he’s there.
    * If he decides to have a 5-minute egg, he’ll make $618 while boiling it.
    * He makes $7,415/hour more than minimum wage.
    * If he wanted to save up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take him a whole 12 hours.
    * If someone were to hand him his salary and endorsement money, they would have to do it at the rate of $200 every second.
    * He’ll probably pay around $200 for a nice round of golf, but will be reimbursed $33,390 for that round.
    * He’ll make about $19.60 while watching the 100-meter dash in the Olympics, and about $15,600 during the Boston Marathon.
    * This year, he’ll make more than twice as much as all U.S. past presidents for all of their terms combined.

    Amazing isn’t it?

    However

    If Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 500 years, he’ll still have less than Bill Gates has at this very moment.
