    Why tell us this? Just to wiggle the knife a little bit in the side of the "little guys", eh?
  2. WTF did he just say?

  4. You mean why aren't they? Dunno, maybe they have enough of their own internal problems.

    Its snowing

    what day isn't? The day of the lord What day is that? We had a saying at VA Tech: "You can't drink all day unless you start first thing in the morning!"
  6. Ya'll seen this one yet? Muslim reaction has been "muted" to this. I must say, I am surprised... Link to the film Fitna

    Its snowing

    We had hail here yesterday afternoon. Supposed to snow this morning, but I think it's a bit warm for that right now.
  8. He may have meant "skulling" and just fat-fingered the "k" instead of hitting the "l". Were that the case, a more proper term would have been "crew", which is the sport of rowing a "skull" on flatwater. You may be familiar with this sport. The uninitiated may call it "rowing". The sport of crew can also be performed in a skull built for a single occupant. See images below: But being that the OP is lance, maybe he really did mean skulking...
  9. I believe it was a femur, a particular type of bone. Specifics. It's all about the specifics.

    Happy Birthday 5K

    Hey Jeff, you added yourself to the birthday list since 9:30 this morning... tsk tsk tsk Skeezix.
  11. "Asked and answered, Your Honor." I actually found his "femur" avatar more fitting. Bring that one back, Kev.
  12. Oh, it ain't priddy...

    No man should know another man's birthday. It's a severe violation of The Code. Even if you know another man's birthday, you should disavow it, at least in public.

    I'm a Ramm Stein. :-))) Does this go back to that thread of a few weeks ago about eating babies or something? No, but your misunderstanding of Archie's dinner menu yesterday might (Mein Teil). ;-) THAT WAS IT! Mein Teil! Thanks for clearing that up. Memory fades with age...

    I'm a Ramm Stein. :-))) Does this go back to that thread of a few weeks ago about a heavy metal band signing about eating babies or something?
  16. sorry AC, my life is like that...
  17. You can find this picture in my gallery. Click on it for a larger image. Then with a ultra-high-powered microscope, if you zoom in really close, you just might see my Willy.

  19. Cute boots. My son had something similar to those when he was your daughter's age. They looked kinda scary to me...
  20. sorry, I couldn't help it
  21. I am just getting into it. My first academy is April 4. Do they haze? The groundpounders do; they're like a bunch of frat boyz. Stick with Mountain Rescue; we drink more than all the other specialty units combined. Except maybe Dive Rescue...
  22. Since he did not demonstrate even a basic knowledge of the geopolitics of the 1980's it was a pretty safe bet he is/was either too young...or willingly ignorant. I don't know how you got "...did not demonstrate even a basic knowledge of the geopolitics of the 1980's..." out of "...Bush Sr. led CIA felt when they were supplying Saddam with all of that support in their skirmish with Iran." We all, or at least those of us who were around then, know that the USA was supplying arms to Iraq then. And we liked that idea, because of the way the Iranian students thumbed their noses at us for over a year. Clearly, Doug knew that little tidbit, too. What is more of a stretch was for you to assume that he wasn't around yet just because he didn't know it was a very small fraction of the total weaponry that was being shipped to Iraq.
  23. You would think that peeps would think a little harder before they just assume that someone on this site is a young'n or not. But that's just me...
  24. Diving and sailing is great. Although I've lost my access to the Express 37, Kahuna.
