  1. Nah, just rub some vodka on it, it will be fine. Like a T34.
  2. South America? I bet. I meant for similar aged russian gear like Cuba probably has. And the joke could apply to almost any Latin American nation.
  3. South America was also more modern and rarely bought Soviet equipment. Maybe look towards Angola, Mozambique, Egypt. Joke- Kids take over a plant. Foreman says let me show you how to use it. No need says the kid, my grandfather taught me. It was old then, it is old now.
  4. It is hard to break something that dominates top to bottom. President down to street cleaner (who is also an Ear for the government). Nicaragua had a few chances, but nope, Sandinistas could not let go of power. And if it does, well look at Russia or for a less extreme model (from economic liberalism), South Africa.
  5. Funny. embargoed not food. not medicine. Cuba could import from the Eu all they want. All those tourist dollars going in stay with the party, not the people.
  6. Go do it then. Lots of jobs on DEVEX. Or we can make a Surly project. Oh wait.... Main issue she packs a few different items. Know what you need, not what you want. And for an education experience, what does lack of power really do to it? Unless she was going down there to learn to maintain old soviet power stations.
  7. China has never been a big supporter of Cuba, or any of the Castro wannabes until recently and then for economic push. They support Peru, Bolivia more than the others traditional left countries (Cuba/Nica). Venezuela yes, but due to oil. There always was a break between Maoism and Stalinist/Castro ideologies in the region. Best example. Sendero was maoist, Tupac Amaru were Soviet line groups in Peru. Same country, same time, different visions and would beat the shit out of each other. If this was Ecuador they would be all over it.
  8. She will be fine. Might be good for her. A lot of the world lives like they do in Cuba. Flying around the globe at night is a great reminder of that. Kiddo (JR @ GWU) just got back from 2.5 months in Northern Uganda building an add on for a refugee shelter. yeah it was rough a bit, more on her colleagues than her, but they managed.
  9. New Target and HEB out front should have told ya.
  10. Maybe because people are tired of hearing they are the greatest team ever, etc. I think they are a good team. Ilke the spunk and Judge seems to be a damn good player, human, etc. But Yankees think Reggie Jackson's era was yesterday. Stop acting like they hired this guy with a bunch of scrubs and here we are.
  11. Team @Sbbruin I think most are. Except Helio. But don't be like Helio.
  12. San Marcos River running at just over 50%. This is not good right? I mean we all know how important it is for washing downstream Bobcat piss and dog shit, it might be something we should worry about. Meanwhile all over the I35 corridor there is more and more development. And not all of it very smart. Also, incumbent Mayor is running for office. She said recently we have plenty of water, enough to sell. https://www.kxan.com/news/san-marcos-river-flow-drops-to-concerning-levels-amid-worsening-drought-conditions/ TL:DR we need rain bad. Did not see a thread in DT for climate, so dropping it here. Good old 10 day with that tease. If it does not happen going to kick a Georgia fan.
  13. Why does the Texas Railroad Commission not govern railroads? Or does it and they pretend that they don't. I bet that Gary Duggar guy is behind it.
  14. Receptionist made both carafes with pumpkin coffee. Did not read it poured a cup and almost gagged in front of the new planning director. She understood.
  15. OK, so what secrets are you privy to that you don't know? I mean NEEEEDDDD to know, not want to know. And agree, maybe we are not. But it is our best option for now. Full libertarian is not going to work. Neither will full fascism.
  16. Nah, we got fitness apps so everyone can know where they are. Like was basecamp in syria.
  17. Cool. Joint Chiefs coming to your place tomorrow for tea They want to discuss with you and your neighbors the war readiness plans for 2050. Please have scones. They like scones. Half the nation is functioning literate, sure lets tell them everything. TayTay can write songs about it to ensure they listen in. Maybe part of his community service Puff can do some PSA's. Shit, no they are not. Joint Chiefs are not in the Constitution. Or is it joint chefs? joint
  18. I think trying to start a war might be a reason. Dude, there is not a plot behind everything event. I think you need to go outdoors, breathe some air, make sure the BOI is not infringing on your perimeter. No one said they were god like. And I did not try to tell you one thing. Again, no conspiracy. There is not a CIA agent hiding in your closet. Or is there?
  19. And when the fuck did I tell your free earthing self what you can and not know? When did I infringe on your rights? Like I said. Those that you vote for have the power to see certain things. Please send me the link to your political campaign.
  20. A secret clearance is not spelled out in the constitution, therefore we should all sit in on Presidential intel briefings?
  21. No, you don't. You have a right to vote for those that see it. Not everything should be out there. I agree a lot is stupid, but smart people can do a lot with just a little information.
  22. Let me guess. You should be the one to determine what should and should not?
  23. I like the screen grabs @BurntEyes sent me during the game.
  24. That and their secondary sucked at catching. Guess that is why they play defense.
