That's Goose from Top Gun. Also, in the movie, he was killed in a training accident, not in the standoff scene.

It's not like there weren't live-fire incidents between US and Soviet aircraft, though.

The fact that we were running B-47s around on recon flights in the USSR's airspace is particularly mind-boggling.


I bet you're a load of fun at parties.

It's a cake. I think we can give her some artistic license for not wanting it to look like horse human waste. :p

On top of that (from the linked article):
But the U.S. fleet is shrinking, not growing, despite four new reactors currently under construction, as nuclear power cannot compete in some states with the cost of electricity generated from cheap natural gas and cheap wind power.

Certainly power from natural gas--cheap or otherwise--is not carbon-neutral, but the costs of nuclear power must include the costs of clean-up of even those sites which did not suffer any major disasters (because ALL power plants have limited lifespans) PLUS the on-going costs of maintaining a watch over those nuclear wastes which will need minimums of many decades if not millennia to get to safe levels in radiation.

It's sculpture and art made by the singer of this band.
