Funniest thing I've seen in a while: http://www.rockpapersaddam.com/one.html

Out of curiosity, what's your stance on the Khadr family? IMHO, they are a prime example of why terrorists are hesitating to strike, because we inadvertently support them by making Canada a prime place for them to study, plot, fundraise and a nice place to come back to for healthcare. At least...

It could be more of an exporting issue as opposed to a simple transport issue.. Besides, I'm not sure if the Mig-21 has the range to fly across the Pacific ocean.. Unless maybe it flew up to Alaska, then into Russia, stoping to refuel on the way? Either way, if it goes back on e-bay.. for...

Hey, does anyone have a picture of the sign that was hanging in the old PRT mess with the saying "All Gave Some, Some Gave All"? I never got around to taking a picture of that..

Sorry to dig up an old post, but I thought I'd just say that after 6 and a half months in the funny country, these boots held up well for me, both walking vast distances around various camps, as well as going out and about. I think I could easily wear the same pair for another tour. They were...

I wonder if the writer of that editorial is speaking from experience, or from on top of his/her pedestal which has never left Canada... Everyone says the US doesn't care about the Afghan's, so it must be true.

I really like the "American tennis shoes that you can not see"  ;D

What's really pathetic is that someone out there thinks they've done something to better the world by desecrating a Veteran's grave... Jolly good show, you've thwarted the new world order once again. Absolutely disgusting.

Key phrase, but one that many people seem to forget. Many people seem to believe that our flag is bulletproof and that no one dare attack us. Then they're astounded to find out that the second largest terrorist attack (casualty wise) was Air India flight 182, with most of the passengers being...

I'm surprised how many of my civvie friends don't even know what the yellow ribbon means, especially considering how common they are in Edmonton.. I feel so loved right now.

I wanted to be the first kid on my block with a confirmed kill. So I guess personal.

I don't kow if they were so much surprised as splattered.

I also enjoyed the fact that the UAV had to continually do high speed, low altitude passes to get within several hundred meters to fire the missiles. But, it's possible that having upgraded the predator airframe to a jet engine (nothing quite like a jet powered glider doing high g maneuveres...

Actually, I think you may be onto something... you could make a HUGE heap of cash.....

That would be interesting... Throw in questions such as "How much have you researched, appart from the news, into the current situation in Afghanistan" and questions to actually TEST people's knowledge. I don't think the results would be too surprising, though..

Did you know that over the course of your life time, fully 50% of the people you meet will be below average intelligence? Just something to think about.......

Well, since Franko got his car, I'm going to hijack the thread... ;) Does anyone have a Toyota Tacoma? I'm looking into getting a midsize truck.. I'm leaning more towards the Tacoma now than the Dakota..

Al1212; Your best bet is to try to get ahold of someone at the unit. Come in on a Wednesday night and ask the recruiters if you can talk to the int people (Just beware that they can be very busy at times). That's the only way you'll ever find out what it's all about. If you really want a...
