Kinda makes you wonder what they consider "dire circumstances"....

Personally, I think this and any articles like it are, for the most part, wishful thinking on the part of the so-called MSM. I think they miss those halcyon days of the mid-nineties where they could bash the living crap out of the CF and have a good chunk of the general population singing the...

If it's that big, it sounds like a giant water bug. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belostomatidae

18/19, but I have to admit that if it hadn't been multiple choice I wouldn't have done nearly as well.

Have you read Pierre Berton's two volume set on the war: The Invasion of Canada and Flames Across the Border ?

Just snagged a copy of Harbor Nocturne. This is Joseph Wambaugh's fifth book in his excellent Hollywood Station trilogy. I'm looking forward to this. 

Just a "little bit" ?? I'm hurt... ;)

I wonder if this whole thing would even be newsworthy, much less cause all this acrimonious debate, if the original words had been spoken by...say...a retired USMC Gunnery Sergeant with a chest full of medals as opposed to "some left-wing bedwettin' commie from the MSM" ? Sometimes it's the...

I think it's kind of a shame that LEOs didn't make that list. Is it just me, or did they not used to be up there in the top ten ? So who won ?  :)

Didin't we pretty much invent portaging in this country ? "Right lads, on the count of three..."

I would imagine that book is going to be a serious tear-jerker at times...

For now, I guess this falls under the "What the hell?!"category until we get more information. This Reuters article reproduced under the Fair Dealing provisions of the Copyright Act: U.S. Coast Guard members shot dead By Reuters Two members of the U.S. Coast Guard were found shot to death at...

I think 95-ish. I'm sure it could be dug up with enough searching but I'm feeling lazy right now.

Unfortunately RD, it's not just today's youth. Over the years, I've worked with countless 40 and 50-somethings who are amazingly, appallingly pig ignorant of just about anything that doesn't involve sports, celebrities or recreational drugs. I'll step into conversations when they crop up...
