LightersView Messages“snafu - The little snots are worse than me. I've taught them too well. They look at me like I'm trying to kill them if I ask them to carry the group water filter for a day. ;-)” 1:32:19 PM 3/17/04 “WARTHOG HANDS DOWN!!! 20MM URANIUM DEPLETED GATTLING GUN!!! END OF STORY! LOL” 1:32:22 PM 3/17/04 “We recently sold our house, which was under the final approach for the airport where the MD Air National Guard is stationed (Martin State Airport, MD). C-130's and Warthogs flying in all the time, the Warthogs often in formation drills. Loved it. Ok, from lighters to aircraft. Love thread creep.” 1:33:53 PM 3/17/04 “ABRHAMS WOULD BE "SWWWWWISS CHEESE"” 1:34:59 PM 3/17/04 SS “LOL.... Thats cool, they will be inventing new ideas on how to cut weight! I think it is a challenge to see how light I can go, but honestly I'm no match for you. So I just try to do my best...haha I have learned much for you the Master "ultra lite" Jedi! :-)” 1:38:19 PM 3/17/04 “I wonder what lighter(s) the warthog pilots use???? haha Bringing thread full circle” 1:39:48 PM 3/17/04 “I think that Solo Storm model is what I took back to the store after Christmas. Keep It Simple, Stupid Ya can't beat the mini bic.” 1:45:46 PM 3/17/04 “Probably a Zippo, snafu...” 1:47:20 PM 3/17/04 RA “Dude!! KISS Thats my motto!!! I hate getting things with a Owners Manual! LOL” 1:58:06 PM 3/17/04 Bit “so.... If the College Fly Boyz use a Zippo, prolly w/ wings on it. Then the Ground Pounders prolly use a ??????” 2:00:51 PM 3/17/04 “The Abrams tank is not invincible. It has weak points. Most of the US tank casualties in Gulf War I, though, were due to friendly fire. I think that answers the question. The Apache also carries tank-killing firepower. We have Warthogs flying out of Willow Grove Naval Air Station constantly, and they circle over my house when they're training. Those ugly little birds sure look pretty, but I think that's mostly because they're on our side. I'd sure hate to be the poor SOB they're hunting. On the flip side, they are engineered to take hits and keep on flying. One pilot brought one back in Gulf War I that was shot all to hell and still made it home.” 2:05:02 PM 3/17/04 “MOM!!!!!!!!!!!! snafu is kissing my a$$ again!!!!! ;-)” 2:07:16 PM 3/17/04 “Geo, they are like todays version of the B-26 Liberator, you prolly flew on one those eh? lol” 2:14:44 PM 3/17/04 SS, first thing that came to my mind...haha “ ”2:18:08 PM 3/17/04 The Ultimate Lighter “ ”3:07:02 PM 3/17/04 “Too heavy.” 3:08:07 PM 3/17/04 “fire in the hole......” 3:11:38 PM 3/17/04 “Only after I eat hot stuff...” 3:12:29 PM 3/17/04 “No snafu, I didn't fly in Bombers. I was in the Army, not the Air Farce or the Army Air Corpse!” 3:19:51 PM 3/17/04 “I have a lighter like the candle lighter by Solo. The head extends about 3 inches, which makes it great for lighting stoves or starting fires. It has a piezoelectric start, and is refillable. No problems in 3 years of use. In the winter, I keep it in a pocket next to my body, and it always starts. Its a great addition to backpacking.” 4:41:07 PM 3/17/04 “That sounds like the same one IB. Yes, but everybody has their mind made up and does not want to be bothered by facts.” 4:52:57 PM 3/17/04 “It's one of those things you have to see to believe.” 4:53:31 PM 3/17/04 Link warning “Don't follow this link at work, or where your kids are watching! Everybody needs one of these lighters” 4:12:18 PM 5/12/04
