Navy pilots in the age of Mach-Incredible to train on B-25s, Billy Mitchells.
And raising the old USS Hornet should not be beyond our 21st Century technological skills.
In a just world this would be a component of the US/Japanese dialog about the balance-of-payments situation. It may do little, but it can't hurt.

The pregnant virgins of Arizona
It would no longer take a man, men. We are to be redundant. Pregnancy would occur when the Arizona legislature says it does.

I am she
Any day when he fails to verbally horsewhip a pewling collectivist tyrant is a wasted day.
But this one is just not feeling it. For reasons he can not fathom life has lately been a series of warm fuzzies. Nothing moves him to take up arms and unfurl the black and yellow flag. Maybe too many spoons full of sugar have deballed him, created a literary diabetic.
He hasn't noted that Zimmermann is probably an idiot but not a racist murderer -- nor its corollary, that Sharpton rates an eternity in that hottest Hell reserved for the most fraudulent journalists. He has savaged neither Obama nor Romney. He has failed to document recent justifications for rebuilding the Tyburn gallows to honor the Weimarites Bernanke and Geithner.
He can only hope that the sense of mission will return. Perhaps soon. Perhaps this weeks struggles with the income tax forms will stoke the fires of rage. They usually do.
Meanwhile:

Screw you, Bert. This crap has got to stop.

Renewal
What a bright and cheerful daybreak here in Camp J country. My Easter finery is laid out for dinner with the C family, but at the moment I look more like a cobbler and smell quite like his work shop.
It just seemed like a nice morning to finish a small project. You've seen the renewed blade, salvaged from a USMC KaBar which appeared to have been discarded on Guadalcanal in the autumn of 1942 and dug up during the last Bush Administration. But the sheath -- a Jedidiah Smith pattern :) -- got its final dose of neatsfoot oil this morning. It awaits delivery to an exceptional young man.
