For anyone that is interested... I just ordered a bunch of stuff from rangerjoes.com for Under Armour. For 9 items, I saved about $150 from the American company, over what I would pay at say...a Sportchek here. Oh, and UA gives military discount to us, too. At least, that was my experience...

I have to admit. It incorporated the song "Hip to be Square" VERY well.

[tinfoil hat] I sense an Army.ca conspiracy. The Ruxted Consortium? Would this have anything to do with a haggard assortment of forum elders combining the sum total of their knowledge in order to produce a document SO GREAT, that it will overpower the government? Or may I make such a bold...

Oh no, God no, this isn't the voice of the Islamic faith. This is only the minority of individuals. Not in Canada. The Muslims have been mistreated long enough by our Gestapo, and so must be tended to! ::) Enough of this ****. Deport the bastard. Threats to the safety and security of people...

Will they have to get it renewed? Can we slap a plate on the child's forhead? Will it have to be visible from the rear? What sort of demerit points are they looking at for a CDUI (Changing Diapers Under the Influence)?

I'm going to have to agree with aesop here. There is already an abundance of gory and very real footage / pictures of the war in Iraq, both in the newspapers and on television. I would highly doubt many families are not familiar with the current dangers and perils in the area.

Like the JFK assassination game? Already done.

Good luck, lads.

I guess...I guess I just don't understand your fascination with the Strategic Nuclear Security (SNS) trade, Brando. From what I've heard, the job is very lonely. Long hours. No official affiliation with the government. Hell, they would deny your existence. At least until they confirm the...

Hmmm. Do I really want to be the one to break it to him...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050713/ap_on_re_us/national_guard_islam The Israelis currently (or perhaps, formerly) practiced this type of idea in buses, to deter suicide bombers, correct? Or is that a myth?

I don't necessarily believe in that either...but the fact remains, that while we do have laws that make the actions illegal, our beliefs in them, until they change, are just that, and cannot influence the final verdict.

Reminds me of the hubub parents were creating over Manson (Marilyn...) years ago. While not being a parent myself, I would be inclined to believe that high school shootings were not as a direct result of Manson's songs...rather poor parenting and failure to identify problems within their own...

Nothing, really. But its the fact that in one situation, the subject would be "standing by his principles" and defending the war, whilst in the other, the subject would simply be ill-informed, and perhaps a tool of the government and popular opinion. It shouldn't matter whether or not it is...

Yeah, but I'm sure that if an equal story about a German refusing service to Americans or Danes with their own disapproval to Iraq, many of the members of this board would hound him for being an "anti-American socialist". Or something like that. Either way you slice it, the fact that he uses...

Well Infanteer, it was a rather quiet Sunday afternoon...with a little bit too much time on my hands.  ;)

TEASER *Opening Scene - Four Taliban / Al Qaeda fighters are nestled in the rocks overlooking a valley in Afghanistan. Below, are five Humvee's travelling down a dusty path. Abdurahman Khadr (Sean Penn), Abdullah Khadr (Samuel L. Jackson), Omar Khadr (Susan Serandon) and Ahmed Saeed Khadr...

Uh, guys, I'm just as disgusted by the opinions I am reading in the Editorial section of the Toronto Star with regards to Gen. Hillier...but a couple of you seemed to miss the fact that the above quote was a sarcastic comment made to SUPPORT Gen. Hillier, not the opposite. Take a minute to look...

At least you guys can practice some OBUA in the surrounding areas, when the police don't want to go in themselves. Just watch out, I think the local populace is better armed than we are... ;)

I'm going to have to call you out on the Reserve Infantry not being "Light".  PPCLIGuy From my experience (which, in the scheme of things is relatively minimal), the Reserve company and battalion is trained and executes its doctrine based on the "light" formation, rather than the "dismounted"...
