Www.globalsecurity.org The best site for military information!

The last starfighter is a fun movie, but it’s less of a controller than it is an Arcade game.

Great article marc!

Japan, China and South Korea should all slice up North Korea and solve that problem.

I saw that Tiger before when I was looking for R/C tanks for my boys. They ended up with a set of 1/16 Airsoft Panthers. Very cool. My favorite toys we have right now would have to be our 1/32 slot car track. When we set the whole thing up it’s over 100 feet long. It takes up a lot of floor space to say the least.

Yea, well, now you see why I re-enlisted, CC.  Easier working days, less responsibility, much better benefits, a lot less stress, longer life expectancy….

Ah well…I hear teaching’s a breeze compared to being a senior project manager…

Witches ride brooms because Nature abhors a vacuum!

Caffeine is my shepherd; I shall not doze.
It maketh me to wake in green pastures.
It leadeth me beyond the sleeping masses.
It restoreth my buzz.
It leadeth me in the paths of consciousness for its name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of addiction,
I will fear no Equal -
For thou art with me;
Thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me.
Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of The Starbucks.
Thou anointest my day with pep; my mug runneth over.
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the House of Mocha forever.

Our lager who art in barrels, hallowed be thy drink.
Thy beer doth come, I will be drunk, at home as in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head, and forgive us our spillages
as we forgive those who spill against us.
And lead us not to incarceration, but deliver us from hangover.
For thine is the beer, the bitter, and the lager, forever and ever.
Barmen.

Feeling Stressed Out?
Picture yourself near a stream.

Birds are softly chirping
in the crisp cool mountain air.

Nothing can bother you here.
No one knows
this secret place.

You are in total seclusion
from that place
called “the world.”

The soothing sound of a
gentle waterfall
fills the air
with a cascade
of serenity.

The water is clear.

You can easily
make out the face
of the person
whose head you’re
holding
under the water.

I am in the Army National Guard, I just rejoined after 2 years out. I had 12 years in so I figured I would go back and finnish 8 more to retire.

I am proud to say I am a Gulf War Veteran and I would do it again if needed.

@cystic:

well, it seems more effective than the North A. circus of justice - applying judgements from one case to another etc. Current jurisprudence looks more like a patch-work quilt than the smooth material of the Talmud.

Well, the notion of laws being fair did not come up yet :)…
i must admit, that north american system is (like the former minister of justice in germany said) “crappy” :)

@Yanny:

Yes we have YB. But, our Businesses take advantage of the worlds worst poverty for a profit. We control the world like the Romans, people go along with us not to help us but in fear.

True, but there are other aspects to consider. Some of those same businessmen spend more on humanitarian aid then does the US altogether. For example, consider Bill Gates. He dumps $10 billion dollars into AIDS research like it’s pocket change. Altogether, he’s spent more on AIDS research than the US has. This isn’t to mention all the other charities and organizations that he’s funded.
