alright… for those of you that don’t understand, it’s not as if i could see the bridge like you see it up close, but i could just barely make it out over the horizon. this was in april a couple of years ago and i haven’t been able see it from that far since. it was one of those times when weather conditions were just right. believe it or not… i’m sure P1 will tell you that i’m not just blowing smoke up you as####.
im simply trying to answer the question to this forum
I have seen the bridge out from 14 miles naked. No, not naked eyes. My eyes aren’t that great, but I saw it while in the nude…

yep on Jan 6th 2008 we witnessed that too…
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up and loudly proclaiming, “WOW! What a ride!”

NO WAY! 19.1 miles max!

I say it that way, because we both looked at the GPS when he said “I see the bridge” and it was 19.2 to HOMEDAY, had it been HOMENIGHT, it would have been 18.2, and had it been …nevermind
“Back home we got a taxidermy man. He gonna have a heart attack when he see what I brung him”
Then we rolled back in at “WOT” 34.15 knts 5345.6 RPM’s, burning 22.456 GPH. It was a trepid 54.5 degrees outside with a humidity of 65.48%. Not sure what the dewpoint exactly, but we rounded it off to 56.6%. I had precisely $17.58 in my wallet and we were talking about purchasing a home with a 5.468% APR amotorized over 30.0 years and 1.5 points. It was getting dark and we decided to push the hammer down, because if we got home late, there was a 67.85% chance that sellsfish’s wife would have been abouy 90.5% pissed off at him. We played it safe and got home with 5.764 minutes to spare! Talk about a wild time. Hey sells, tell them about the 6.45ft long shark that left you with only about 56.6% of a seabass!!!
I wish that “Something Fishey” was here to verify my numbers, but those are pretty accurate from my memory…
Quick test… I can see Airforce One out of the window right now. Where am I?
I guess that is why you haven’t called OTM back…

Not meaning to be a smart a$$, but that is a profound statement. The eye is only capable of seeing so far. I can see the sun, and that’s 93,000,000 miles away. At night, I can see much farther.
Catch…no offense intended…I just couldn’t resist.
