RE: Happy Thanksgiving to my American G’s (still early)

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 23-11-02 AT 05:42 AM (GMT)]Yes. Have a good Thanksgiving dinner and as part of tradition, watch the Detroit Lions get crushed.

RE: New Digital camera….

Too funny Garry 🙂 Good dog pic. ( note: usually when a dog owner says something disparaging about their pet it really is just a cover. They are most likely quite attached to it 🙂 )

Canadian Bacon…. Serious Documentary on Geopolitik

Serendib can’t walk by an ant hill without taking a stick and stiring it up 🙂

What is funny is Chrétien says she uses the word “moron” a lot. Almost certainly he thinks about him too 🙂
This is a complete non-issue. Of course all the left government types and the news services that are their lap dogs eat this stuff up. Should sell some newspapers anyway. The Canandian – American feelings about each other for the most part are positive and stronger than any current sitting leader on either side of the border.

Also remember a ways back when Canada mentioned it was going to put a good quanity of F-18s in storage and upgrade the remainder. Interesting is one general said to the effect that we do certain missions because we have the ability, not necessarily because we need to. ( refering to Canadian F-18s doing bomb truck duties in Allied Force in 99 ( carried LGBs and being “buddy lased” by someone else )

This is a valid point. What is the role of the Canadian miltiary in the future and what missions should they do? A good portion of Canadians think they shouldn’t be involved in expeditionary warfare. Rightly so I think, and I have a lot of respect for that view. A strong Canadian Military for what? Expeditionary warfare? Why? Why do Canadians need to be killed on foreign soil?

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 18-11-02 AT 05:23 AM (GMT)]Well, one of them was an American. Article at this link.

Although I don’t think it would have mattered had the strike planners known. Hang with the wrong crowd and you could end up being bumped off too.

RE: For Americans

The VP is kind of like an XO (second in command to a Naval Captain on a ship) The VP gets all the boring administrative paperwork/tasks and things like that which require a presidents level signature/decision. This includes a lot of “official” presidential dutys like: The Presidents Commission on Agriculture, Education and a whole bunch of other boring plans/programs and events that you never hear about unless it is a really boring news day.

RE: For those of you condemning the assasination

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 17-11-02 AT 04:42 AM (GMT)]Considering all the UAVs they have dumped in spectacular and unspectacular ways.. how do we know that the thing just didn’t fall out of the sky and land on those unfortunate slobs? 🙂

Theres a funny cartoon at the ops scheduling desk of the A-10 unit at Barkdale. It goes like this:

F-15 pilot: ” I shot down two MiGs. “

A-10 pilot: ” I destroyed a dozen tanks “

UAV operator: ” I’ve been shot down 5 times “
