2010 Upcoming Thunderbirds Schedule
Please Verify The 2010 Upcoming Thunderbirds Schedule Before Attending.
March 20, 21 - Davis Monthan AFB, Arizona


I have confirmation from son in law that indeed, there will be an airshow at D-M on March 20-21. He's going to be there as he'll be in the states at Jackson, MS for training, then joining the C-17 crew with the 55th Airlift Squadron and the 97th Air Mobility Wing Geronimo--Ever Vigilant-- out of Altus, AFB. So, we'll go and wear our 55th shirts and shock the pilots on the Altus C-17. The C-17 will be stationary for tours, but there will probably be a lot of stunt planes, F-16's, and other aerial demonstrations, as well as booths, food, souvenirs and a meet and greet with the Thunderbird pilots. The air shows are really a lot of fun! And they do bring out my patriotic side! Plus, I love harassing the crews that are on the C-17. When they get a little cocky, I just tell them that I know all about the C-17 because their boss is my son in law. That usually gets them sitting up straight, wiping the smirks off their faces, and saying "Yes, Ma'am"!

I think our government is slowly turning into a Oligarchy/Plutocracy. We have already seen that the popular vote means nothing. We recently had another President elected against popular the popular vote, George W, but that wasn't the first time.

1824 John Quincy adams--had more than 38000 fewer votes than Andrew Jackson--neither had a majority of electoral votes and it was determined by the House of Representatives

1876 Rutherford B hays had a 1 vote margin in the Electoral college even though he lost by 264,000 popular votes to Samual J Tilden

1888 Benjamin Harrison lost the popular vote by 95,713 to Grover cleveland but won the electoral vote by 65.

And we all know what happened with Bush.
You failed to mention Bill Clinton, in the 92 election more people voted against him than voted for him.

1992 Election Results:
For Clinton 43.01 %
Against Clinton 56.99%

Not a big Bush fan either, but would gladly take him again instead or OWE-Bama.

I found the following movies (below) which were filmed in Tucson. As far as which ones were filmed at the Boneyard, I happen to know that some of the second Transformers (Revenge of the Fallen) was filmed there. As for the scene which you are referring to I'm not sure which movie that's from exactly. However, the dude looks like either a younger John Cusak, or Shia LaBouf. Sorry if that doesn't help you immediately...

True, but at least in Clintons' case he got more votes than anyone else.

It was Patrick Dempsey and Amanda Peterson in the coming of age film Can't Buy Me Love. Just a silly little movie, but kinda cute though.

Hey, I do remember that this movie was mentioned to me once, but for this particular thread I drew a blank!
