Flames gave engulfed the launch pad.

On a side note, I really wanna see a rocket launch. Big rocket...like NASA. I mainly wanna just hear it in person lol.

I was at a shuttle launch with a friend who had press credentials. The public can get as close as 5 miles but the press is at 3 miles. Fucking incredible. It was 07-May-92 and the maiden mission for Shuttle Endeavour. The noise is like Nascar even at 3 miles. The sky is lit up. It's an experience that I would love to repeat but not sure if it could be matched or beaten.

I'm green with envy.

From what I've heard you can feel it even at those distances. And isn't it pretty much a sonic boom with a shockwave when the sound finally reaches you?
 
I don't remember feeling any heat from it. Not really like a sonic boom (I've heard a few of those from the couple of years after 9/11 when we had fighter jets scrambled from Travis Air Force Base to Oakland or Alameda) but you certainly heard it. It was almost silent, people trying to listen to the countdown, we saw it lifting off, and two or three seconds later we heard the massive roar.

How close do you want to get?
Some facts: Shuttle launch 215-220 decibels.
3miles away is 125ish. Mile away is 135ish.
400 feet away will burn you to death. 800 feet away will kill you from sound as it only takes around 200 decibles to off a man.

You working whore.


Funny, After breaking my knee and no longer being able to be a firefighter, I moved from Connecticut to California. Worked for a CT based company. No openings for me to move back. So, moved to Pacific Bell, which became SBC and then took the name AT&T. When it was SBC, they had already bought SNET, the CT phone company. Again, no openings there. Hoping to move back to that area, say Northern New Jersey, eastern New York state, or any of the New England states (prob not Vermont, not sure why) within a year. Hoping I might have a teardrop camper made by then. If you haven't seen them, check out tnttt.com. You can find them on Tapatalk as well. Some cool stuff in just a 4'x8' (or bigger if you want) trailer package.

I'm not too politically correct, but the pot and kettle reference are pretty derogatory. The pot and kettle are whores.

So is everyone reading this, so . . .

I'm just a whoring along, on Moonlight Bay....
 
Check in a little later (maybe during Swede's first break or lunch). Until then,

WHORE ON!


And this makes 6200 posts (unless someone alters it because of a double post because of a lack of whoring from you whores).
 
I know you are but what am I?

First time I "moved" to the states (1987) I lived upstate NY in Lake Carmel, was there for 11 months and worked in the tree business, trimming and removal.
