Found a good one at The Brigade today.

As a side note, I attended a job fair in Wichita that was for Bell Helicopter Textron in Amarillo before I got the hire notice for Edwards.

Good story here folks.

    Hey! I like the Big Texan! Sure it is a bit cheesy – catering to the Rt 66 revelers but the steaks are decent. However if you eat that monster sized steak they offer – 72 oz – 4.5 pounds – in a proscribed time they “give” it to you (I’d say by that point you earned it) –

    The old painted Caddys stuck in the ground are a bit of an eyesore after a few decades –

    But to his main point I can certainly understand it – if I were 35 years younger I might do the same.

    But the Army, it seems, doesn’t want any 61 year old corporals ;-)
