Few things more impressive than a 58 year old man in a "Letterman Jacket."

P.S. That's both pathetic and hilarious. '73 marked my first appearance at the World Championships....but, call me crazy here, I can't even imagine currently wearing the USA Team attire from that era so's to most "impress" anyone as anything other than an utter fool. Then contemporaries have gone on to well-represent America in aged geezers Divisions international events, but I've thus far proved far to lazy to emulate them...and all that serious training thing hurts like a beyotch anyway. If ever stricken by the "Champion Virus", one wakes up mostly every day to an instant, physical check/brutal "Oww/FK!"/etc reminder of whether one's tolerance for pain is still exceeded by his desire/NEED to win. I spent many years in youth with that. If I'd wanted to undertake a whole life of anything less than "All Glory/No Work" (less the occasional "war" thing of course) I'd likely have never pursued aviation in the first place, but of course "Letterman Jackets" will always hugely "impress" me. Being thus an admitted wimp; what better could I dare hope for in my dotage than to have some pathetic punk like "cactusboy" properly "regale" me with childish fantasies of "spartan" magnificence, and of course "Letterman Jackets"? I'd only ask of him within any "regale" of AWAsome skills as a "pilot", that "he" additionally bore me with some of his "war" stories as a "soldier" of "sparta" at least...or at least properly brag on how many thin mints "he" earlier sold as a Girl Scout at least....
Seriously folks. Wouldn't you all love to see a proper "spartan soldier"/supposed "pilot" in action within forever made available aerial video proving their flying "skills" against even an aged and frail old eastie?...Or should such pathetic punks instead be forever allowed to do nothing more than "regale" instead?
PM/Conversation initiated to "cactusboy": "I can regale how I could out-fly you with both eyes tied behind my back"....Sure you could punk. I'm offering you the chance to do exactly that on permanent video, so what's "youse" problem?
You can "regale" all you want, but the Truth, and you fully know it is that you're just a pathetic widdle wimp. Show both myself and literally the whole world otherwise at your pleasure.
Where you err in this is in assuming that I'm/anyone is as much full of complete BS as you are, and have existed only by way of easy circumstances and too few people nearby properly wielding flyswatters during the course of life. That's not the case.
Bottom Line: We both know you're just a complete joke. Either step up or shut up punk, and "you'se" are hardly the type to ever actually "step up" for anything." What sort of "man" or "pilot" would let that go unchallenged?..Other than perhaps some "spartan soldier" of course?
I'll hardly, after a full decade of such "spartans" infantile idiocy, be even slightly left holding my breath for any semblance of an honorable and actual response...save for perhaps more ferocious threats of some "regale"/etc. Pwecious widdle cactusboy: "I can regale how I could out-fly you with both eyes tied behind my back."...but yet "regale" is somehow all we've ever seen or can even apparently, ever hope for from your pitiful sort?
Gentlemen: It must be admitted that these "spartans" have at least been good for a lot of laughs over the past decade.
