@wittmann:

Today, the 4tb March, in 1193 the great Saladin died.
he was the greatest Muslim commander of his time, maybe ever.

So the best was 820 years ago….

well there are two things you guys are overlooking from the movie IMO…

1. the machines used the machines and schematics they had AVAILABLE.  And that said, they used them in a mad scramble to protect themselves/skynet.  You know how often your machines turn off/become unreliable/break down.  Skynet used EVERYTHING at it’s disposal instantly, because that’s the most efficient.

2. I took it (especially from the last terminator movie) that like the matrix, humans were needed for certain things.

3. I also took it, that the rest of the planet, didn’t have their own sky/net machines/drones. and that the bulk of the problem was an American one.

4. Nuclear Devestation also would have damaged machines… EMP would have messed them up.

I read that article, very impressive.

WHAT THE HELL!

They just gave up the search!

That’s BULL S * * * !!!

He’s -presumed dead- but officially considered “Missing”. What a bunch of JUNK… And they won’t let the family access THIER OWN PROPERTY to look for THEIR OWN SON/BROTHER; worse -becuase he’s missing- the family can’t access benefits for over a year or more.

What has the world come to? The government is willing to consider criminally charging these people for digging to find thier own family member?

If my brother (or any member of AA.org) was down that hole, and they wouldn’t let me get to the body, I’d start putting led into people.

Wittmann never disappoints.

I want you to imagine for a moment… your minds linked to mine.

LOLOLOL…

Not exactly they type of Shake I was thinking of.  I imagined a well spoken moderate religious guy……

Perhaps there is hope in the world if the phase “Never trust anyone over 30” is adapted by the youth of Islamic countries!

@MrMalachiCrunch:

Should have been a candidate for the darwin awards!�  But she survived and it was not her fault so I guess technically would not meet the criteria.

The man that stored the mag in the oven is the candidate. [edited by GG].

@Imperious:

Cheating is stupid. Victory with it always has an asterisk next to it.

It’s just a freaking game and if you have to cheat, you have major psychological problems and should address them rather than play games IMO.

Just like all the steroid use!

Boeing 737 from Dallas to Houston. We flew over a thunder storm, very awesome.

WELL thought through and designed.

Only when he ate cauliflower or broccoli.

Giraffe’s don’t bite off genitalia during copulation like banana slugs do, just saying.

Ha Ha!    I had not heard that      I do remember Edward Porter Alexander was stationed their before the war and had some social interaction with british officers

I wonder what sports they played    sounds like it was probably a drinking game:)

I recall that OWS at several sites like Cleveland , and Atlanta got thier Rape reports hushed away.

OWS Dallas got some report of a consenting underage runaway girl who shared sleeping bags, weed, and more w a few guys who would have been jailed for their activities w her.

They did not police themselves well, and the government authorities had to clear them out.  Rape was tangent to the main reason to the clear out OWS sites.

If I had a daughter, OWS type activities by her would be severely discouraged.

@Gargantua:

I love the Russian answer.

-SEND IN 20,000 TROOPS-

Why can’t the Yankee’s do this more often.

Just wait till Russia blames the US for trying to get the meteor to hit them, for a reason to invade.

Now that is a venn diagram I can appreciate!  It appears inn my haste my terminology was a bit mixed up.

I read this and it made me shake my head.  Tax policy is a pretty dry subject no doubt.  But there is a story to be told when a company can earn a billion dollars in profit and actually pay negative taxes, ie, not only pay no taxes for a year you earn a billion but actually get taxes paid in previous years refunded!  If that was not enough fun for a year, you also get tax offsets for future years ensuring you won’t pay taxes on your next few billion dollars in profits.

Condolences for your loss.

@Karl7:

As a Russian or German?
