My favorite scenario was an attack on Syria and fighting against Soviet-era fighters and surface-to-air missiles. I wish I could say I had an unblemished experience with the game. The bad guys were good enough to shoot me down in simulations. But the real F-15E Strike Eagle is still a marvel. The F-15 series of variants has a perfect record in real…

Every once in a while, you stumble upon a deed or act that melts your heart. You know the sort of thing I’m talking about. It could be a story wherein someone has gone above and beyond to facilitate an act of great charity, or perhaps it’s simply someone doing something nice without anticipating anything at all in return. Performing such a deed often carries its reward in the feeling of bliss bestowed upon one’s soul. That said, it’s always nice to recognize people who are making a genuine effort to make the world a better place. Shane McDaniel and…

This seems to apply in almost every area of our lives — from how we listen to music to how we get from point A to point B. Yes, everything is changing. This leaves certain ‘technology’ of the past just a vague memory, with future generations completely unable to guess what some of those things we cherished back in the day were. Like these little ‘coins’… But do you know what these were for?If you’re…
