Down here it’s summer, which mostly means rainy days interspersed with 20°+ sunshine.

I just wish you jokers in the US could spare some of that snow for my Dad in Queensland, where a weeks-long heatwave of 40°+ temperatures is thoroughly aggravating and complicating his recently diagnosed inoperable lung cancer. I think he might welcome a little snow (or at least a break in the heat) right about now.

(And please, nobody make jokes about ‘what’re those temps in Freedom Units?’ I’m currently fighting the bureaucracy and their website’s AI overlords to get a passport so I can go see Dad, and copping it from my brother because it’s all taking so long, so I am not in the mood.)

40 degrees Celsius… that’s about 100 degrees Fahrenheit, right? I know what that’s like…

I just got my hands on a copy of Ian Black’s Jet Combat, which was published by Osprey in 1988 while he was on active duty with the RAF! I tell you it’s amazing what you can find at a Half-Price Books!

As of a couple of days ago, Death finally claimed the Chuck Norris… do we want Walker to have just passed away, as well?

I think we have to. I'm not sure him dying in bed or saving nun carrying an orphan from a fire works better.

Too much of a cliché for him to go out in a blaze of glory. Going peacefully in bed, off to his warrior's and lawman's rest, would be far more appropriate.
The difference between diplomacy and war is this: Diplomacy is the art of telling someone to go to hell so elegantly that they pack for the trip.
War is bringing hell down on that someone.

Bernard did not know you could speak french over at AH.com.

En 1987, les seuls soldats soviétiques présents en Allemagne de l'Ouest faisaient partie du personnel de l'ambassade à Bonn. Du moins, officiellement.
