Is this same same (but just the obverse) as "pre-crime" as seen in Minority Report? lol. And scary too--'cause guess what? If they could do it, Amazon WOULD!

Heh, I swear I swear I swear that the second post showed up after I clicked off your site--don't know how electron gremlins @ blogger did it--I certainly didn't double-click! "Tis the usual electronic puzzlement..
(Hey Buck--remember when the old USAF GEEIA Squadrons meant --according to one GEEIA tech guy who jokingly told me--"Get Every Electronic Idiot Available?" Were YOU a GEEIA guy? lol)
No, I wasn't a GEEIA guy. But I WAS an AFCC E&I team chief, and I was also in possession of about a dozen sheets of those old "Installed BY GEEIA" stickers. I'm CERTAIN you saw those things everywhere in Nam, every little bar and whorehouse in all of SEA had at least ONE of those stickers, somewhere. Usually in the latrine, on the toilet or on the mirror. Or on the mirror behind the bar, if the establishment was up-market enough to HAVE a mirror.
We were issued "Installed by AFCC" stickers, but NO ONE used the things. We were still too close to the GEEIA days, and most of the Old Heads were GEEIA types.

ReplyDeleteYou keep winding up in the spam-catcher, Moogie. I've had to clear ALL the comments you've left in the last ten minutes. Why does Blogger hate you?
