Blame him on the Tetons.

A day late and a dollar short...but here are some pictures:

Smoked oysters.

Since I started ignoring Martlet, I have grown fond of him...except when people qoute his posts and I can read what he is saying.

I want to hear the one about the guy who gets "corked" by the logger. Also, add some details about what kind of chainsaw he has, etc.

Shaolin Tiger Style!

Changed pic because of stoopid 'no direct linking'... Was a pic of 'Iron Monkey', my 2 year old son's favorite movie.

I'm down with the OP. Keep it coming...

You're asking this to the board that spawned the N O D D E R thread? Because it is fun. That is what spray is all about!

Hey Everyone, I've got to go. Could you feed the Marlet for me? He'll eat pretty much anything. Don't let him wander off! It is scary what I guy like this might be doing if he wasn't posting on cc.com all day!

WHAT?

The Lil Baby Weasel is still here, eh? What a nice little pet troll to have hanging around. He is annoying at first, but then you grow to like these "You are ignoring this user" messages. It seems like he is trying so hard to respond to every post, you almost want to cheer him on. You can do it lil fella! Eventually, he will win and we'll all stop posting here or turn in to juveniles like lil Marty. Keep it coming lil weasel. I have no idea what you are saying, but you are excellent comic relieve to some serious discussion that happens here. And, of course, you know you're right. At least you have that.

PI! Your absolutely correct.

"Hey, are you ignoring Marlet too?" "Ya...how about that steak sauce"

Sal! You're making me tired with this yawning. Who are you talking to?

I see. Well, if we've got to be there, it really doesn't make sense to have a big standing army there (basically a big target), so the "SOF" route does make the most sense. As far as an exit strategy, it seems like the Iraqi people aren't going to buy it unless there is a truly elected (and not appointed or psuedo-elected) Iraqi official in place that really represents the Iraqi people (and not the US). I don't see that happening anytime soon...and so I don't even see the possiblity for an exit strategy. I'll have to check out that book. Thanks.

This is an interesting point. If our exit strategy is going to be extremely difficult, because as soon as we leave, the factions will most likely step up again. Like the Serbs and the Croats or the Isrealis and the Palestinians, the struggle almost seems unending, barring genocide. Regardless of who is in the Whitehouse, this problem is going to continue on. SOF=Soldiers of Fortune? Who will be paying these people? What interests will they represent?

GD, so do you think we will end up running the country much like Saddam did (in regard to people in the country who don't want us there)? I'm not referring to the prison thing, obviously that will be something that will be fixed (hopefully). Just in terms of ruling with an iron fist.

STEAK SAUCE!

***You are ignoring this snaffle ***

SQUID SAUCE!!!

I know...for instance...Marty just posted "*** You are ignoring this user ***", and since I'm posting this here, now you have to read what he wrote, even if you are ignoring him. It is a pain, but I suppose no system is perfect.

You're missing more than that Squidboy! There is some guy Marlet on this board who just keeps typing in "*** You are ignoring this user ***" over and and over again! He is cracking me up! Some sort of mantra for him, I guess.
