Battlestar Galactica 2.5.  I just got a roomie hooked.  We're going through the whole thing from the beginning to the end of season 3.  I'm still eagerly awaiting season 4's release on DVD.

Hey, do what the university students do and don't let the facts get in the way of a good idea.  ::) ;D

Ummm...  I just don't know what to say.  I could come up with a few lines...  ::) http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7693386.stm

Okay, these guys are about as sharp as a pair of cudgels.  But, a Darwin award?  Doesn't that involve removing oneself from the gene pool (in the erroneous assumption that intelligence, or the lack thereof, is genetic)?  I didn't see how these two disabled themselves from further procreation...

Cog-Diss, et al. It's okay for you and this particular Cpl that we are discussing to have an opinion.  Everybody's got opinions.  Nothing wrong with them.  Especially if we have the wisdom and humility to realize that most of the opinions we hold are probably wrong.  The only opinions we have...

I'm not too sure about that.  It was quicker for me getting out of the Regs the first time than getting out of the Reserves the second time I pulled handles. FWIW, I regret both.

Of course.  Even congratulations to all the CS and CSS types that supported you along the way!  Bravo Zulu everyone involved! FWIW, at the time of my posting, no one was mentioned but 3 RCR.  I may have been a lousy clerk posted to Second Battalion during my time in, but all Royals are my...

Bravo Zulu Royal Canadians! ;D :salute:

An American F-16 with eight people on board, including five Generals, crossed into Iranian airspace and was forced to land by Iranian jet fighters.  ::)

Oooh!  Now he's a Briton living in Spain.  Sounds like he was buggered off at the high port for a psych eval. Wonder what they'll think when they find out he's no loonier than the average troopie who's just out for a laugh.  ::)

Nuts.  He was identified as Spanish when originally posted.  The Beeb must've edited their article. Sorry for the confusion. Makes it hard to make oneself the butt of a joke if the joke edits itself...  :-\

Who is identified as Spanish... Do try to keep up!

I'm not Spanish for crying out loud!  I've never even been to Spain!  Why can't they get it right? :clown:  :crybaby: :blotto: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_depth/7656537.stm

Shared with the usual legal blah, blah, blah,... Gun expert shot in hand sues PSNI   Mr Woods' lawyers claim the proper safety procedures were not in place  A police weapons specialist who shot himself in the hand is suing the PSNI. Peter Woods, 50, was dismantling a gun at a police...

And yet the Military Police have recently adopted a black uniform that looks distinctly more like a civilian police uniform than a military one.  I'm not arguing with you, Greymatters, I was just noting the irony of that particular move. And FWIW, I know firsthand that the Commissionaires (at...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Is it wrong of me to be quite amused by that particular quote?

Didn't I hear about a similar video hitting this interwebby thing about the condition of the shacks in Fr Bragg?  Actually, the state of the barracks looks about similar. Don't know what that means, in the big picture, but I just thought it was interesting.

No kidding.  It doesn't justify it to you or me, but then these guys aren't you or me.  It boggles our minds but, that seems to be the way these super-fundamentalists see it.

Tea all over the keyboard and desk.  And up my nose too.  Good one though. :rofl:
