The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress(or BUF -Big Ugly Fucker)is an eight-engined heavy bomber used by the US Air Force. Initially designed in the late 1940s/early 1950s, the B-52 was the mainstay of America's nuclear deterrent bomber force since 1954. Although designed to nuke the crap out of soviets, the BUF has never been actually used in its intended combat role. The B-52 has since proven to be a great conventional bomber, even being used as a close-air-support plane(a role for fighter bombers). Although 50 years old, the BUF is simply the most efficient way to drop a shitload of bombs on someone and is expected to be in service past 2045, thanks to constant upgrades and tough-as-hell engineering. It can carry cruise missiles too.
Interesting trivia for ya: The band The B-52s are not named after the bomber, but rather the hairstyle... which looks like the B-52's nosecone
Pham Tuan, the first pilot to shoot down a stratofortress, later became vietnam's first cosmonaut.
The B-52 can carry around 70,000lbs of bombs. thats right, seventy-fucking-thousand.
The B-52 is so old, that its perfectly possible for a pilot out there to be flying the same BUF that his father and grandfather previously flew.

ALD-52 or N-acetyl-LSD, is a chemical analogue of LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide). It was originally discovered by Albert Hofmann but was not widely studied until the rise in popularity of psychedelics in the 1960s.
Effects
In TiHKAL, Shulgin touches briefly on ALD-52 in entry 26, LSD. His writings are vague, second hand accounts, saying doses in the 50-175µg range have resulted in various conclusions. One found that there was less visual distortion than with LSD and it seems to produce less anxiety and was somewhat less potent than LSD. Another report claimed it was more effective in increasing blood pressure. Yet another could not tell them apart.
It has the same characteristics as LSD, but supposedly "without the anxiety, tenseness, and other problems inherent to it".
"your tripping, did you take that lsd. No its Ald-52"

An alcoholic drink consisting of Baileys, Kahlua and Gran Marnier. Served in a shot glass, this drink is layered showing the colours of the different types of alcohol inside. To create the layers, one must pour the alcohol slowly over the rounded end of a spoon.
I'll take a b-52 and two shots of liquid cocaine.

The correct amount of times your allowed to be called before being taken off the list. Rule 52 also includes Rule 53 a motion to reconsider to be taken off the call list.
An older semi-automatic Czechoslovakian battle rifle originally developed after WWII and chambered for 7.62x45, but rechambered for 7.62x39 after Czechoslovakia was engulfed by the Soviet Union.
This rifle features a detachable 10-round magazine and a side folding bayonet. It is comparable to the SKS both in original concept and basic layout.
Later replaced by the SA VZ 58 assault rifle in the early 1960s.
The VZ 52 is said by some to be more accurate than the SKS.

Also known as the Stratofortress or the Buff (Big Ugly Fat Fellow). Its the United States Airforce's nuclear and conventional intercontinental bomber. Its 50+ year service makes it the longest serving aircraft EVER. They have taken part in every conflict since the Vietnam war and up into the War on Terror. Its expected life span is projected up to the year 2030.
1. B-52's have begun their strategic bombardment of enemy positions.
