I gave you my advice. There are no tricks. Either find a spouse to watch over your kids, or stay home and be a parent. That is my advice. Take it or leave it.

My advice?  Don't do it. Yes, I'm a single parent (full time), and just being a way for a week at a time with my teen daughter under someone else's care is enough to give me the heebie jeebies.

As a subscriber who has on more than one occasion been a total dolt on these fora, may I suggest that we get back on topic and talk CF-188 and its replacement?  Now to get back on topic, please remember that we would have to use said replacement not so much against these guys: But these guys...

Whether or not they were all Americans remains to be seen, but as pointed out, that number is irrelevant. 

This one graphic displays the utter ignorance of those who favored the losing candidate: So, if you knew anything about the electoral college, you would know that they are based on two things: 1.  The number of representatives in the House; and 2.  The two senators in each state. So, in...

I'm sitting over here wondering why I spent four years to be an infantry platoon commander when I ended up being an infantry platoon commander for a year.  Then I spent 10 weeks learning how to be a mortar platoon commander and ended up being a mortar platoon commander for 2 years.  TL;DR...

So...no different than at any other time... :whistle:

At the rate we're getting planes, rebuilding our own fleet of CF-104G Starfighters would be better than this display of feces on parade.  It's faster than the Lightning II, has a similar ceiling, but less combat radius and less ordnance; but with modern avionics... Better than the Arrow....

Your MPRR ought to show what contract you are on.  If you can get a copy of it, do so. 

It's official.  Now you can stop fantasizing about an electoral college revolt.  Or whatever. Edit to add: In Texas, 2 electors voted for someone other than Mr. Trump: one for Mr Kasich and one for Ron Paul.

You're high if you think that would happen.  As stated, there have been 7 thus far: 3 in states where it's not allowed and the voter is removed and the votes "fixed" and 4 in Washington.  The four in Washington were: 3 for Colin Powell 1 for Faith Spotted Eagle of South Dakota. And they all ran...

I think the use of the word "extreme" is, well, extreme.  But it would be a breath of fresh air, given the extreme social progressives that have been polluting the gene pool lately.

The actual election is going on as I type this.  Here's a link to follow along: http://linkis.com/www.270towin.com/84jOA Also read of one "rogue" elector.  He cast his ballot for John Kasich.  His vote was void and he was replaced.  (I think it's one of the states where rogue votes are...

All legislative; none of it executive. 

The irony.  Wanting to flee their country because the president elect wants to enforce standards for immigration and then finding out that said country has standards for immigration that make it challenging to immigrate...

Exactly One vote per senator and one per congressional district. Earlier New York and Wyoming were compared. Well, Wyoming has 1 member in the house; New York State has 27. Thats where thing divvy up by population.  Each has 2 senators, where states are all equal.

Well, if this were a direct democracy, then it would matter.  If popular vote were all that mattered, then Clinton, Trump et al would campaign in NYC and LA.  That's it, that's all.  Read the reason for the electoral college.  Also remember that states are all supposed to be equal partners in...

Joe "Snee" Schechtel, formerly of The RCR, The Canadian Airborne Regiment and Princess Patricia's Light Infantry passed away overnight.  He was in the loving care of former fellow soldier Rocky Boudreau, at Rocky's place in Costa Rica.  Joe had cancer and it really took him down quick.  In his...

Exactly ;D
