Oxymoron alert! "Smaller Hooters"

Almost everybody gets a badge in the USAF. Everybody but him. The heraldic device that surrounds the badge aren't "wings" but an "olive wreath" to denote the peace that the air force defends. A common element in many of their occupation badges.

The point that she may have been trying to make was that the deputy, beside (allegedly) being mistaken about her holding a phone in a non-existent hand compounded his error when he made her swear "hand to God". She seemed ready to make it a joke, cackling when she raised her right handless arm...

I was of the impression that the UCP, and particularly the Wildrose Party element before that, prided itself on being a "grassroots" organization rather than following a top down leader-centric model. Where does it say that? (sarcasm) https://unitedconservative.ca/about/ In the interest of...

Clickbait, perhaps? Col Collins made the comments (and they were reported) back when the red-haired one's book came out in 2023. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/jan/06/army-veterans-criticise-prince-harry-claim-killed-25-taliban-afghanistan Date/Time of the Guardian piece Fri 6 Jan...

No. In France one is presumed innocent until proved guilty. The popular misconception to the opposite is that the trial system is different, being an inquisitive (investigative) process (vice the adversarial nature of common law jurisdictions) with the judge being a trier (and investigator) of...

If a demonstration team is needed, how about this? I remember seeing them back in the 1960s. The British version

Skipping his son’s wedding - meh, there'll be another in a few years. Missing a planned golf trip - now that's serious!

How does one answer this question? “Should Alberta remain a province of Canada or should the Government of Alberta commence the legal process required under the Canadian Constitution to hold a binding provincial referendum on whether or not Alberta should separate from Canada?” The other 9...

When I count the years, it seems a little "mists of time" but about this time of the year 36 years ago I was in DC on the "Washington School Tour*". The briefing meeting at State for the Canadian officers (there were three of us - a LCol, a Maj and a Capt) was with the desk officer (and member)...
