I think "legs" usually refers to range/endurance, not speed, when talking about aircraft. 414411[/snapback] I know; but honour demanded some defence to be offered.
-
Sort of makes sense I guess, at least from an international point of view. As for legless - I bet English Electrics little speed demon could still show its younger namesake a thing or two when it comes to going really fast...
-
I suspected as much, but I thought I'd let you know the broadcast date as there are many means of... uh... "obtaining"... things in this modern age now...

A F-18 taking off from grass - now, that I'd like to see... Welcome to Macross World, coolhandluke!

The episode should be broadcast on UK BBC1 at 19:00 GMT this Saturday (8th July). I don't actually know the episode title myself, but if you go to a website like Outpost Gallifrey they should have the info there.

Sorry, but you'll thank us once you do see it.

Sorry for the tardy reply - only just seen this. I got the cabinet at a "Homebase" store in the UK, don't know if you might be able to get the exact model in the US. I will warn you, theres a slight gap in the doors, so dust still gets in. And the glass backing does make it hard to get a photo without adding yourself to the collection! -
There was a clue in the last trailer, so it wasn't a complete surprise for me, but still...
-
Was it good? What happens? Don't tell me he regenerates ... again?!?! 413191[/snapback] I can't tell you. It would spoil the surprise.

Viewers in the UK were treated to the trailer for the final episode of Season 2 yesterday. Holy freaking mother of all things... er... holy. Hold on to your hats, people...!

Penalties. Always bloody penalties.

I have a suggestion for the Milia doll packaging (the real product, not the, er, "fantasy" version... ) "Will expand when unwrapped".
-
Oh yes, I have been schooled by my two friends in that regard. I suppose it also helps that the entrie world calls it football except the North America. Being Canadian, I did call it soccer just to differentiate from American Football. But I'm feeling much better now 410959[/snapback] I'm suddenly reminded of Pulp Fiction... "You know what they call football in the US?" Just don't ever ask me to explain the concept of off-side, 'cos I can't! As to England playing well at the moment... er, theres a bit of a difference of opinion in the homeland at present...
-
I live in the UK, which I think makes me contractually obliged to like football (and it is football, not this "soccer" malarkey! ), but I've never really been a big sports fan. My family, however are quite nuts about it. Theres currently some spoof ads on UK TV at the moment from Budweiser, spoofing the American approach to sport and imagining what might happen if US-style sponsorship came to the UK. Moving Arsenal to Yorkshire just because theres already too many teams in London is just one of the ads jokes (although a slightly obscure comedy show called The Mary Whitehouse Experience did much the same thing a few years ago, only somewhat more bitingly... )

There IS a God!

Give me Milia without her wedding gown and... ...er, yes. Well.

"We just got the -19 fixed!" "Ohhh, I've been waiting for you - my pretty girl... " "Higher! Faster!" Er, a thought: YF-21 almost seems like a future no-brainer, but maybe... VF-11? Edit: okay, lets not get ahead of ourselves... great news just for the YF-19!
-
Will it matter? They're fighting the next war in Cyberspace, apparently!

I gues sit would depend what you were trying to do. The Harrier already has a proven close-combat record from the Falklands, though its often forgetten their opponents were operating at a long distance from their bases and weren't carrying long-range AA missiles. All of the above would probably be able to use the option to get out of Dodge at supersonic speed (not sure about the Voodoo, though), and the F-106 and F-4 could engage at long range. In a close combat fight, the F-104, F-106 and F-104 would probably be Harrier toast if they fail to keep their speed up.

The new season has been a little bit of a mixed bag (please note that doesn't mean anythings been bad, just a little bit off the mark set by the first season in a couple of areas). I think Tennants now generally settled into the role. There hasn't quite been an episode of the quality of "Dalek" just yet, and the Cyberman two-parter was a bit disappointing, but having said that theres been an excellent two parter ("The Impossible Planet" and "The Satan Pit") which fans of Doom will absolutely love, some very strong stand-alone episodes (including an enjoyable romp in 50s Britain featuring the famous British actress Marueen Lipman doing a delightfully evil turn... ) and then theres been the latest episode, "Love & Monsters", which... ...which... ...which... ...lets just say "Macross 7" for the diversity of feelings I expect it will generate, okay...?

Have You Ever Met A Celebrity Or Famous Person?
F-ZeroOne replied to Phalanx's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've met UK humorous fantasy author Terry Pratchett a couple of times, though as the man himself would no doubt point out, so has just about everyone in the UK. He does a lot of book signings...! Oh, and Tom Baker. What a wonderful grin that man has! My brothers met Richard Ashcroft (formerly of UK band The Verve) and Noel Gallagher from Oasis. And my parents have met the entire England rugby team... -

Here is a slightly long shot of my collection. Please note that the "F-ZeroOne holding camera" is not part of the collection but the result of the mirror backing.

When I saw that - and my apologies to those MWers whose childhood did not include UK SF comic 2000AD - my first thought was "Unleash the Sun Legions!".

Well done, that man!

0.55 Boys Anti Tank Rifle! Where is my drink?!? 405546[/snapback] Well done that man! Your drink will be arriving as soon as we hear back from the colony fleet Hikaru Ichijo and Misa Hayase are on. Should be any day now...
