You’re really ending the year on a high note, Chris… 😀
Naomi in a DDQ skirt
Barely wearing a DDQ shirt
Those who grab and call it flirt
They will wind up in the dirt
Sam and Jan in matching fare
Bustle beer and brisket fair
Safe to carry their fair share
Under Zed’s protective glare

You’d be surprised how quickly those little old Hughes helicopter can cut through the sky!
Many a Huey and Black Hawk pilot cut his teeth on those at Fort Rucker, Alabama. And performed miracles in battlefields around the world.

I got 110 hours in those at fort Walters in “Miserable Wells”, Texas in 1968 and 69. Don’t recall seeing any when I wnnt to fort Rucker, Al. But I left their in 69 so they could have stationed some there after that as I never went back. The military designation for them was the TH55 also known as the Hughes 300. I ended up flying the Hughes 500 in VietNam which was Called the OH6. Got just under 1000 hours. Great aircraft –
A headwind would call for the increased throttle that Naomi heard, to maintain the same speed over the ground.
‘Toly is lying through his teeth. Does anyone blame him?
“President-elect Donald Trump’s race to enact the biggest tax cuts since the 1980s went under a caution flag Monday as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell warned he considers current levels of U.S. debt “dangerous” and said he wants any tax overhaul to avoid adding to the deficit.” http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/art…
And just where the hell was this Quisling slimeball when President Obama was creating that massive debt that he is so concerned about now?
The son-of-a-bitch wouldn’t oppose Obama when he was trying to destroy the working class, but he will stand in fake moral outrage when Trump tries to help the working class.
I am so sick of the Elites and the MSM that has become them.
Edit that from “President Obama” to “Previous Presidents”.
He didn’t build that… by himself. It was a team effort.

Interpretation: Mitch McConnell does not want the economic surge and massive increase in tax revenues that JFK and Reagan had when they lowered taxes.
Nor does he want the infusion of trillions of dollars of offshore funds in USA corporations resting overseas due to current tax code to enter the USA and expand investment and job creation and tax revenues due to a fair tax when compared to what our taxes are compared to foreign taxes.
Will the House elect Pat Ryan president because they cannot tolerate the fact that a person whose ideas and intentions coincide with at least 85% of Americans thought and beliefs was elected President by the people? Is this the national Emergency they are touting? Will the electors punt?
Will the house elect a Triumvirate? OOPS. Wrong millennium. Never mind. Maybe?
it is only 10 trillion a decade, or was that 100 trillion a decade, that the globalists want up front that is at stake.
Lots and lots of minions can be bought and paid to crush throats with heels using that scratch.
It is only control and world domination at stake.

In an article on Harry “from the crypt” Reid’s retirement, it went on about how he and Mitch McConnell are really good friends. They go out drinking together, etc. McConnell has done far more for the Democrats than Republicans!
Plus, he looks like he has a wax face that is melting! He makes me think of some villain from Dick Tracy!

Yup. An evil villain snuck into a power position on the supposed good side.
One former girlfriend, who then lived in condos in a, or The, Trump Tower in NYC, went to some hoity toity high school and is a friend with a daughter of McConnell. Everyone knows everyone by a few degrees. She ran into Trump now and again back then. Her parents bought condos from Trump back then.

The Hughes 500, on the taller, for deep snow skid-legs, is an astonishing machine! On the High Arctic Ice, one winter, out Seismic Crew’s Hughes 500 was out with the Seismic Shot-hole Driller, his helper, and our Crew’s Mechanic, whilst the Nodwell-mounted Top-Drive Air-drill was being given an especial servicing… During the takeoff, to return to Camp, a gust of the Blizzard-wind drove the disc of the rotor-blades into the side of a tall pressure-ridge! After the crunch-landing, one side’s gear-legs needed replacing, and the matched set of rotor blades needed replacing. AOG, on a shipment of parts, produces quite a swift trip, from Parts-depot to Seismic Crew! The Hughes 500 was at work again, 3 days later = most of the time was due to the complex route, to Resolute Bay, NWT {The change to Nunavut came quite a few years later, eh?}.
I like the Hughes 500 quite a bit, regard it as a natural pickup truck in the sky, whereas the JetRanger, and the LongRanger, are more akin to a 4×4 Station Wagon = do the job, but ya gotta be extra careful about the lower rotor-disc, and the inside of the passenger compartment is not as handy…

The Hughes 500 is a great aircraft and served as the OH-6 for years in the military. However Toly is flying a Schweizer 300C which was derived from the older Hughes 269. The 269 was developed in the late 50’s early 60’s and widely used in agriculture, police work, etc. It was also used as the Army’s TH-55 training helicopter from the middle 60’s until 1988. When Hughes decided to stop making the small piston engine helicopter Schweizer bought the rights to it. Also VNA (velocity not to exceed) is only 90, hope Toly remembers that.
Hughes 500, US Army designation OH-6 Cayuse, affectionately known as the “Loach.” One of the most crash-worthy aircraft ever built.

A bathing scene requires a bathing piece
making her way to the bathing pool
the quiet of the house behind her
only now does she have time alone
peaceful
demand free
uninterrupted
time
finding the reservoir water still hot
she unlaces her dress, slipping
sliding it down past her ample breasts
over her full, strong hips and legs
dropping it to her feet, stepping away
the chemise follows over her head
yards of softened linen brush her skin
reminding her of a lover’s touch
up go her hands to unbind her hair
held in place with combs and pins
one by one out they come
freeing the auburn curled mass
shaken free…it cloaks her
not hiding her strength
wetting her hair, she lathers away
the sweat of hard work… replacing it
with lavender, rosemary and lemon
more warm water, a rough cloth rubs
rose soap over her face and neck
down, over and under hers arms
around her back where she can reach
working out knots as she goes
more rose warmth travels slowly
over breasts bobbing with exertion
the cloth’s roughness eliciting
a response deep within
more water… more roses
glide over her belly, hips, bottom
down her thighs and legs
between her toes and feet
scrubbing away the days toil
fresh water and a soft cloth
for delicate, sensitive skin
slowly, carefully she cleanses
her center, her seat of power
eyes closed, sigh smiling
dreaming of him feeling
filling that moistened
willing, ready place
lazy circles again glazing
over, around and in
from behind she hears his voice
asking if he may finish her bath
warmth pours over her
in concert with his hand
streaking soap and longing away
On most single-piston-engine fighter aircraft with the engine in front of the cockpit, the firewall between the engine and the cockpit was literally just ahead of the instrument panel (“behind it” from the pilot’s POV). The throttles are traditionally on the left console so you can operate them with the left hand while keeping your right on the stick.
When you ram the throttles all the way forward against the stops to go to maximum military power (aka METO -Maximum Except Take-Off), that’s known as “firewalling the throttle” or “balls to the wall”, the latter because the throttle handles used to be little spheres of Bakelite about an inch in diameter.
