Yes, Canada dumps on its military peacetime, spending on higher standards of health and education, and is measured for military prowess by what it does after its call to arms. The US is the only superpower and hasn't won a war since when? The Phillipines? Panama and Grenada don't count. Military power has its limitations. As for "blue helmut" stuff, you missed Bosnia et al and who chose the toughest sector and consequences in Afghanistan.

King you heathen. Of course, you would associate the fine red states of America with the devil, and yes hill's deep blue sea is soiled with discarded solar panels and hybrid car batteries, among other skeletons bobbing on the surface, stricken from public checks-n-balances.

You have endorsed the concept of the 'ist'. It really isn't a long l'ist', but it is not flattering. The gal has been coated with an earth friendly no stick 'ist' resistant coating from the lack-o-checks-n-balance corporation, foundation?

Please don't you disparage our ocare! That's right about the time that we, the wild west murder capital of the world, became healthier, happier and more productive.

Don't worry about the people. As a liberal, it is your day job to convince them that they are miserable. By any yardstick, you're succeeding. If you teach a man to work, he is of limited use. If you teach a man to whine from his favorite stool at starbuk's, you got your redistribution in the bag.

No, no, craig. The other way. The woman to me at the time was the devil and the man the deep blue sea, god knows what the US and the world would get from him. Now we know.

A a liberal, again, my job is to diminish these notions of entitlement, to become sovereign, masters of our destiny, no public teats, no punk games. It's declared policy of the rural organization to which I belong.

It works wonderfully. Education unites people in pursuit of worthwhile goals. Bafflegab, indecision, hot and cold, destroys the spirit every time. Initiative must come bottom-up without bureaucratic or technocratic interference.

It's my day job.

Yep, Canada who has a terrible political system and a joke military is safe to denigrate the US who protects you from an invasion by the Italians.

I anxiously await your next space shot.

I am impressed! I don't know how you finished the part I clear cut off, but it had to have gotten harder and harder to reach the keyboard as your pinocchio nose pushed you away from your computer. Just kidding, I wanted to work forestry back into the conversation. If you sneeze, do leaves fall off the end?

This way off the subject, but yes I was a Test Pilot for a number of years. Test Pilots, at least at the level I worked, are grossly over rated as for most part is the work. I often felt like the guy that was told he was going to be in a parade only to discover his place was cleaning up behind the elephants.

Hey Lonesome, did you happen to watch the hockey game, you know, the last hockey game? Darndest thing I ever seen because they brought out this big silver trophy, the biggest I've ever seen, and handed it to a player so he could skate around with it do you happen to know that player's name?

It escapes me right now!!!!

Wouldn't have missed it for the world. Would have loved to see P.K. bring it back to that city in Kwee-bec. I like the Pens and Pittsburgh, can't stand that nut spearin' Nova Scotian. Last team to win back to back '97 '98 Wings.

And who was that right winger who did it for the Red Wings those years, keeping his elbows and stick swinging to keep the riffraff from taking off his head? Only another greatest hockey player of his time, eh?
