  1. Matt, If you go back to my earliest posts on this, you will see that I have not favored a war with Iraq. Yet when it comes down to the bottom line, there is no one more in favor of peace than war veterans. For they have seen the horror of war and what it does to the bodies and minds of promising young men from both sides. Politicians should fight wars - or at least accompany the troops into the fray. Then they might not be so eager to wage war. Personally I would like to see us get out of the region and out of Europe and Korea with our troops. Let Europe and Asia defend themselves - it's about time they stepped up to the plate. That way they can quit riding our tails and not having to invest in defense and letting their economies prosper. Let them make the sacrifice. (yeah - right - like that would ever happen) We could reduce the size of our Army by two to three more divisions - divisions we can't fully man anyway. It would help us eliminate one or two wings of fighters. Our navy should probably stay the same size, as should the Marine Corps. And then we just sit back and wait. I would imagine it wouldn't take long. trask
  2. Admit it, you're a Trekkie aren't you?
  3. There is no solution in doing nothing. It only makes the problem worse. The whole situation reminds me of 1938 and 1939 and Chamberlain's policy of appeasement. Think of how many lives would have been saved if the Nazis had been dealt with early on. Instead the entire world sat by and did nothing - just like they want to do now. And the division between our supposed allies and us has done nothing but encourage Hussein and now bin Laden. Not a good situation. The only reason Hussein has made ANY effort toward the UN weapons inspections is our threat of force. Yet he STILL plays games. Toss the dog a bone, so to speak.
  4. I'll buy you one if you do me a favor.
  5. Not true at all. Just fuck with the settings a bit and all is well. I never have to turn anything off. (but then again I don't solicit email from the porn industry like some people I know).

  12. I'll shoot across the bay in my boat and meet you at Coupe. I'll already be half-baked by 8:30 AM though. How about a change of venue? BTW, two thumbs up on the hottie in the wedding pic. WooHoo

    That poor devil. No matter what he does no one will ever take him serious again. Dumb ass anti-pot smoker.
  16. That Dragonfly is allot of money for a bit of nylon. I got mine at West Marine (us boat guys have the same clothing needs) for $15 and it's pretty damn close. Whatever, it's your money.
