I told you not to drive in L.A.

Actually, the CIA was involved in training the real mujaheddin in Afghanistan and they were Afghans.  Some CIA money may have reached Bin Laden through Pakistan but the CIA did not train him and stayed away from the foreign fighters.  Even the Afghans had little use for the foreigners because...

I always thought it was interesting that even the futuristic weapons are primitive compared to ST.  Nuclear missiles, way more realistic than photon torpedoes.  Yeah, BSG is way more down and dirty like you would expect a warship.

Not any more. ;D

Here is the reason that Navigators now have to pass a written test before getting in the plane.

My wife caught on to that one :'(

Happened in April and we are just hearing about it now?  One has to suspect there may be more to this than meets the eye since, if the reporters were behaving, this normally would have been plastered all over the media.

Could he have puckered up any more for the Liberals?  No wonder it is known as the Toronto RED Star by many respectable journalists (the few that there are)

Might not make sense but you can be guaranteed that if they believe than can make political points they would kill it in a second.

TD has been warning people about these going around but any bank will tell you that they will NOT contact you via email about such things and certainly not ask you to do anything over the internet.

Noooooo, she is seducing you with the power of the dark side.  It looks inviting but it is a trap you cannot get out of.  Once they have you it rapidly spirals until you are left a quivering mass that is always wrong but never knowing why. Here is an example, you buy her that big rock or that...

Remember what P.T. Barnum said "There's a sucker born every minute"

It seems to me that we have failed to address the important question in all this, how much is she giving you to spend?  Surely you don't have your own money

Definitely underscores the fact that, as professionals (even when retired), we have to keep in mind what we are saying. We also need to keep in mind the perceptions someone from outside the CF can get based on what is said on these forums.  The CF has come a long way and it would be terrible if...

Unfortunately, I have a feeling he is right.  Although it may have been an Iraqi decision the optics will be that the US pulled the strings and will be used to rally even more extremists against them.  IMHO, it would have been better to just let him rot in jail so the world forgot about him and...
