point of order...

Isn't a "near miss" by definition a "hit"? And the amount of paperwork is the same anyways...

edit -

Youtube is blocked at work, so... I couldn't even see what that video was. Carlin was such a genius at wordplay.

You can't even imagine, what kind of paperwork you experience, when a "near miss" crosses the border to the "distant hit". A UN committee has been created already to discuss if this is torture or only life-long work camp internment.

Correct. That's why George Carlin up there made such a joke about it.

One morning at Krayniy, in the early 80's. A Mig-31 is getting ready for taxi.



Edit : ooops, the Antonovs behind have the Russian Federation Flag on their tail, so it would be rather "One morning at Krayniy, in the early 90's. A Mig-31 is getting ready for taxi." (they didn't have time/money to repaint the Mig-31)

"You suck at docking."

Speaking of docking, I really wish these doors would open...
