    I think we probably have the most technically advanced tanks overall, and use them better tactically (almost as important as the technical capabilities IMO). We also like operating at night which most armies can't do on a large scale. That's a huge advantage over most any enemy. I don't see American tanks running single file, down a highway, in broad daylight, in a battle theater. I don't know how well tanks hold off the things a soldier can load up against his shoulder, and fire today though.

    Ahhhhh decorated in early fuck

    Some of both. I've never held Russian military in high esteem, their equipment (the main bulk) is always outdated, and poorly maintained, it's army is filled with uneducated conscripts. Our carriers are protected a bit better than the average Russian warships but with the advent of drone warfare the time of aircraft carriers may be coming to an end. I think our military is moving to a more rapidly deployed, lighter, strike force type organization. You can bet our intel, and tech folks are looking at this conflict in minute by minute detail. You couldn't pay me enough money to drive a tank.

    The Dylan albums are my wheelhouse along with blood on the tracks. For sure on the police trifecta. never been a huge stooges fan unless curly was in the lineup on screen or onstage.

    THAT is some harsh shit right there.

    Yeah, the whole sheep, cow, horse fucking thing is disgusting on an infinite number of levels, but this is like infinity times eleventy billion worse in my mind............and yeah the gang rape angle blows what little of my mind is left.

    And that ain't helpin' your case. I'm both shocked, and surprised based on your musical background.

    Ya know....... I don't know what the straw was that broke the camels back in Gods decision to flood the world, and wipe it clean, but I gotta figure gang raping a monitor lizard (fuck, any animal) is probably in somewhere in the same realm.

    Damn you list some of the seminal bands of the classic rock era. Please don't go on. Jefferson Starship (fuck no). Jefferson Airplane ? Hell yeah, they're rock, and roll big boys. Again, all personal taste so no wrong answers really.

    I can see the easy listening comment based on sound, but the overall composition is classic 60's, rock/symphony orchestra collaboration (IMO). It does get very "pretty". It's all personal taste of course. There's plenty of rock music you could hear on an easy listing station, and it would still be rock. I don't think you're in the minority. I think the Moody Blues are one of those bands people dug or didn't, and basically for the general reasons you listed above.

    All true about the quality of their music, but Nights in white satin/never reaching the end is one of THE quintessential 60's pieces of music ever recorded. Having grown up during those years, when I hear it, the 60's flood into my memory like from almost no other source. And it's not even in my list of top 10 Moody Blues songs, let alone all time 60's favorites. Free bird could maybe be my equivalent of your sentiments regarding nights in white satin.

    Yep, we're not sending first line, new toy stuff, which makes sense for all kinds of reasons. Something truck mounted/mobile seems to be a great, quick way to tackle the situation.

    Is that a system easily used, does it require a much more sophisticated fire system, training, is it mobile or fixed, etc. ? I like the idea.

    Think it’s been established that sinking ships is a much bigger task does Ukraine have a navy capable of doing that ? which then means NATO hast to get involved and I think we all know where that leads to.

    Bring me the head of Vladimir Putin, a great movie title.

    I like the visual. I'd settle for seeing him sitting in a small cell with iron bars.

    Colonoscopy

    These should be performed the first time at 40, sooner than that if your family has a history IMO. My family has a history so I demanded one be performed earlier. 3 polyps the first time, 6 the second time, 7 Tuesday . Now it’s just a waiting game for the biopsy report. Lost one of my long time friends to it at the age of 35 or so. Not much you can do about it at that age I guess, He was a big Drinker, ate lots of red meat. Once you exhibit symptoms it’s already in the later stages I believe. Before my first one, I was seeing some blood. Freaked me the fuck out. Turned out it was a hemorrhoid. Talk about relief.

    I will swear on a stack of bibles I saw a 3 lane zipper merge work pretty politely less than 3 weeks ago while crossing the Monitor Merrimac bridge tunnel in Hampton, Va. I wouldn't have believed it had I not seen it. 2 lanes of traffic with a 3rd on ramp lane: there was a lane blockage just past the onramp. For the most part it moved well, and we got thru what could have been almost a 45 minutes or more back up in about 10 minutes. There were of course those assholes who have to try, and get by everyone, but mostly the onramp lane (shipyard shift change traffic ), and the merge lane alternated vehicles. It fostered hope for humanity in my bruised soul.

    Fuck he was funny.

    Well.... he's convinced. That settles it for me. No more weed smoking. I wonder what his thoughts are on alcohol, and it's health benefits ?

    Ummmm... we're gonna have a problem here sir.....
  23. Onboard 2.0
    Uhhh... do you want us to lie to you ?

    The wife will call me a pot head, like it's some kind of insult, and I should be hurt.....

    Oh, none taken at all. You live in a ski Mecca, you get unlimited days if you want, of course you're better than me (I hate all you fuckers who get to live in the Rockies) just kidding of course. And I know there's a class of skiers out there who don't fall much if at all, but I now when I push myself I ski better, even when I take a fall. Then I hit that run again and make sure I don't fall... at least not at the same place. I get 20 days on the slopes a year if I'm lucky. Next season is booked for about 40 so far. And yes when I'm getting 5 days on a vacation, I'm pushing myself to get 5-7 hours if possible, which does breed some sloppiness towards the end of the day. I try to shut it down when I feel the sloppiness creeping in, and I can't hit a line the way I'd like to.
