Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Parkland, Pulse, and Vegas say Trump is a liar again.

More lies.
The dollar is worth more today than at any point during Trump’s presidency.
In fact the dollar had been worth more for Biden’s entire term than at any point during Trump’s term and it’s still trending stronger.

GROSS! SECOND-LARGEST PYTHON IN FLORIDA HISTORY CAPTURED
DISGUSTING! Footage from last Friday shows a giant python being captured in the Everglades National Park. The snake weighed in at 198 lbs. and was over 17 feet long, making it the second-heaviest python captured in Florida.
I tried.

We broke their code...
With this critical knowledge, US forces turned the predator into the prey. What the Japanese believed would be a decisive blow to the US Pacific fleet was now meticulously engineered to be their own undoing - an ambush of the ambushers.
As the chessboard was laid out, the first move fell on June 3, 1942. Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto’s Combined Fleet breached the horizon, resolved to erase the US from the Pacific theater. Yet, skimming through the azure canopy, American warbirds were already in play, primed to strike first at the unsuspecting foe.
However, the meticulously crafted plan soon became a maelstrom of disarray and miscommunication. The scheme depended on fighters, dive bombers, and torpedo bombers, each executing their roles converging in a harmonized attack on the Japanese vessels.
US pilots needed to engage the enemy on all fronts – fighters to control the skies, dive bombers for an aerial onslaught, and torpedo bombers skimming the sea to puncture the steel sides of the ships.
But the reality of war seldom follows the choreography of the drawing board. Through a cruel twist of fate, the slower and lightly armored torpedo bombers of the VT-8 squadron found themselves leading the assault by themselves.
At the helm of their outdated, cumbersome Douglas TBD Devastators, the airmen and their crew were grimly aware of their slender chances of survival. Without the protection of fighter escorts, they stood exposed to the deadly barrage of Japanese defenses, from swarming enemy fighters to the ceaseless storm of anti-aircraft fire.
The Americans faced almost certain doom. As the Battle of Midway roared into action, the men of VT-8 squared their shoulders, ready to stare down their fate…
The Genius WW2 Trap that Nobody Saw Coming
Through determination and ingenuity, by 1942, US cryptanalysts had deciphered the previously impenetrable World War 2 Imperial Japanese Navy code, known as JN-25. Japan had no idea America was listening. Buried within its encrypted chatter, a chilling revelation - a Japanese assault on the US Naval Station at Midway was imminent, promising devastation of an unseen scale.With this critical knowledge, US forces turned the predator into the prey.
