Great song with Chuck Berry and John Lennon singing but about halfway through Yoko starts screeching and the look on Chuck's face is priceless. A good laugh for anyone who blames Yoko: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzW7wzKR34k&search=john%20lennon%20berry

Alright, it's that time again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm a die hard England fan, and I readily admit that if we do not win (or at least beat the Argentines) I will lie down in the road and, amongst the tears and curse words, await my death. Lets keep any discussion, articles etc. related to the cup...

I took a break from posting for a while, so I didn't get to do my weekly music review. The Arctic Monkeys are a band from Sheffield, UK and I had the pleasure of seeing them live this past summer at a dingy shitehole. It's actually very typical modern punk (strokes, etc.) but the difference is...

Well, Brain Injury Awareness Week came to a close today, it's a topic near and dear to my heart. I work at the Hospital and I'm working on my BSc in Kines (hoping to do my honours on Segmented Spinal Cord Injury), I play rugby and it's always hanging in the back of my mind; As such I'm extremely...

Any of the RMC cadets or anyone in the Kingston area make it out to the game last night? I saw it was a 3-3 tie, wondering if it was any good or if the fans were sleeping by the end of it. I used to go all the time with my dad when we lived in Ontario.

http://www.nathanielfick.com/index.html Excellent writer, a Dartmouth grad turned Marine Officer. I've been reading One Bullet Away, and while I readily admit I have a bias towards first person writing, this is an excellent book so far (about halfway through). On the site are links to some of...

After spending an hour in the military history section at Chapters and coming away with a book I'm somewhat unsure about (Michael Herr's: Dispatches") I need some help finding a history book, somewhat anecdotal in nature, written in the first person perspective on the Vietnam War. There are...

I was reading an article in Wired Magazine (me nerd yes) and I started reading about MilBlogs, which I'm sure many here are familiar with. For myself, this is the first I've heard of them and I think the concept is absolutely brilliant. So the point of this thread is to post links to MilBlogs...

I saw a post about an Apache and it made me think of this, I saw it on BBC, you need real player to watch it, the post title says it all: http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/downloads/lotus_vs_apache_broadband.ram

In the December 12th issue of Sports Illustrated there is an excellent article on amputees from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Basically it's about their coping with missing a limb using extreme athleticism, the piece features a brief summary of how they lost their limb, the period after in...

I'll admit it, I'm a John Lennon fan. All disagreements with his politics aside, I really like John Lennon as a person and an artist. Last night I picked up a CD called "Working Class Hero: The Definitive Lennon" and it pretty much covers all of his music, it's a double CD and it pretty much...

So I've been talking to recruiters in Halifax about getting back in, and the Naval reserve tells me it's now 3-5 months from application to enrolment, and they said it with sincerity so I believe them to a certain extent. Anyone having started the recruiting process recently find it's taking...

Home fixes, traditional ones that work etc. Post 'em up.

Any other Cricket Fans (I do only consider myself an amatuer fan mind) out there catch the tests?? Look real hard at the test series played on the 4-7 of August at Edgbaston and you'll see an England Flag and Maple Leaf flying side by side mwahaha....won by two runs, I think it was the mixture...

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2-1662989,00.html Normally I'd just pass this over as things like this have happened here before, but I was actually visiting a friend in the neighbourhood where this happened and was handed a yellow leaflet by the police explaining what was going on...

So it's been 3 hours since I went in for my "Teeth Cleaning" at the dentist and my entire jaw feels like I got punched. I mean, first of all, why is it that she has to use a sharp metal pick to clean the area of the tooth near my gums????? A dull plastic would do the same job and wouldn't make...

I'm hoping someone can help me figure out the names and details surrounding a couple of Child Guerillas I remember seeing a while ago. The details I remember are: They looked to be from Southeast Asia, I was thinking possible Cambodian, Idonesian or Filipino. They also looked like they were in...

Posting this after a chat I had with a buddy of mine who just got his degree in Kines, He's abroad right now so I'm just doing this as a favour. It's also a program I've been accepted to at Acadia next fall, though I'm not sold on it. He was wondering what he could do in the military with a...

:dontpanic: Has anyone has anyone read the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy? Now has anyone enjoyed it? The movies coming out (Which Douglas Adams wrote mostly..harmless) at the end of the month and I am very excited. I'm a lifelong member of the HHGTG Religion (lets all point out the obvious...
