I thought this would be kind of interesting/entertaining.  Ask me questions about CAP, CAP Talk etc... but try not to ask something that can be answered with a reg cite.  Looking for questions where I can give an opinion rather than just an answer.  I reserve the right to decline to answer questions at my discretion.

Are you really experiencing global warming up there?  What's your take on that?

He maintains membership, but rarely attends meetings... Someone has to watch the kids.

Winter seems to be getting later and later.  It snowed a bit today.

Major Lord

What exactly is a chafing dish used for?

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

No.  I think that idea would have the flight characteristics of a brick if presented to the USAF.

She's doing the Deputy Commander for Seniors gig and some other odd jobs...  Hence Darrel being home with the kids.

It's a pan that uses Sterno or other heat source underneath to keep food warm... Often used at buffets and the like.  I saw Hot Shots too.  :D

It wasn't very cold in December... That's for sure.  It seemed like things didn't get going until February IIRC.

I dunno about Mike, but I probably will be.  We should arrange for another CAPTalk social get-together.  :)
