  1. on Business. Would appreciate any SITREPS. Right now it seems like the phones aren't working.
  2. 5 right 13 left Logical but boring category.
  3. Not a bad move. M. Moore is quite an offensive player. Popeye Doyle is good D.
  4. I just traded Joey Heatherton for a Levitra commercial and a number four next year. I thought when I drafted her, it was in 1970 form, not current. The guy I traded with probably thinks so too.
  5. Frank Sinatra Heather Locklear Ronald Reagan Dianna Krall Little Big Man The Discovery Channel Emiril Buffy the Vampire Slayer Rin Tin Tin Southpark Direct TV Commercials A Hecht's holiday Catalogue Joey Heatherton Emerson Lake and Palmer Do I have a chance this season?
  6. I've got the Cardinals/Broncos game on as background noise. If the Cardinals play the Bills anything like they are with Denver, I wouldn't be so quick to call that one a break. Dennis Green has quite the defense working, and Special Teams? How does 57 yard field goal sound?
  7. A true stalker? Clandestine photos of the pig? This could be bigger than the Peterson case! I'm sure glad we get real news anymore. Where could one go for any information? That said, talk about die from embarrassment...
  8. Well, thank you DC Tom. I still find these pissy reponses totally in the category of wet blanket.
  9. This is one of the more enlightened threads I've seen in awhile. We are some sick people. It really pisses me off.
  10. stevestojan started to sink again. We must remember stevestojan. No stevestojan.
  11. And 6' 5" as well. Although, he still is Dexter to those who know and abuse him.
  12. That's an entirely different team, but has many of the same players. I really can't comment in any detail and stay out of jail. What I will say, is that most of the world is a target, to one degree or another, and the various possibilities are considered and planned for. Another thing I can safely say is that the foremost goal of any strategy focuses on deterrence above anything else. It's pretty well up to him as to what happens.
  13. Oh, by all means add the beer, and plenty of it. I use a dark beer in my baked beans recipe. But cooking requires a certain amount of pure water as well. It's a chemistry/temperature/time thing. Your texture is not the same if you don't use water. Where's Chef when you need him?
  14. There's nothing heroic about any of it. And I truly wish that we didn't have to consider any of it, after all I have a perfectly serviceable Iran and North Korea to idle away my time with. and I didn't mean to write a sympathy post, it's just how i view things now. What I would like anyone reading this thread to come away with is that these things aren't created in a vacuum by a politician. President Bush is advocating a strategy that has literally thousands of hours of work behind it's creation, and was recommended to him by the folks who would be making the same recommendations to a President Kerry. Like it or not, that's the way things work. I can't say it any plainer than that. A big bunch of military and defense people were charged with creating a warplan for homeland defense. We did that. We continue to refine it. We would have presented the same plan to President Mickey Mouse. It doesn't matter who sits in the office, unless they choose to reject what they are given as a reply. and, I have to say that is probably not a wise choice. As for success, this country has not been attacked since 9/11. 3/4's of AQ's leadership is dead or in prison. There is a global structure in place with the cooperation of most of the world to root out and destroy cells at their source...it goes on. We ain't doing too bad, folks. As for Iraq, don't blame me-never had any hand in that one until it was way after the fact.
  15. You know? I personally don't really care one way or another for myself. My reason for living died May 18th, 2004. Getting through a day is often a painful chore to me. And it's not "my" plan. I happen to a member of the plans working group at NORTHCOM who has the responsibility for homeland defense. This group includes about a hundred military and civilian subject matter experts in a variety of fields, from legal to air defense to strategy to logistics to WMD to FBI to unconventional warfare. It's completely 100%apolitical and matters very little to my "contract". It's one of several areas that I work in. No matter who wins the election, what I do for a living is not going to change. One candidate will probably make the job more difficult, is all. After a LOT of analysis, thought, discussion and debate the group came to the conclusion that the only viable homeland defense was to fight a global "away game" and concentrate domestic efforts on the most likely avenues of approach. There is a difference between Homeland Defense and Homeland Security. At the risk of how this sounds, I do this stuff for people like you. I'm a hell of a lot closer to the issue than anyone else here, and I know what I'm talking about. No one should run around in fear, but neither should they blow it off. The fact remains that this country is at war, and few seem to realize they are living on one of the battlegrounds. And yes, I think it's pretty disrespectful-and your insinuations are downright insulting-but I also don't care because we all tend to be that way here from time to time.
  16. He knows how to eat. Although he is down to about 240 now. Melody must be inspiring him. I actually saw him eat a salad.
  17. DC Tom has mentioned Greveys tome. I'll have to make the trip. I haven't had a Beef on Weck in years.
  18. The only reason that post is there is because it got moved from the other board. I didn't say anything about living in fear. I'm not living in fear, are you? One candidate supports a philosophy of going after the terror guys where they live and breed. One advocates a philosophy of increasing a Homeland Capability to better be able to respond to attack. All his mumbo jumbo about alliances and such is just that. Simply depends on which approach you prefer. I happen to prefer the former. Especially since I help engineer it. Now, go smack yourself in the head some more if it makes you feel better.
  19. That site will make your head hurt. Kinda like Billzone does.
