Without the press, there is nobody there to report what they do to the world. Just saying.

As to sharing buildings, if you rent office space you rarely know who is renting the other spaces in the office.

If they are setting up shop in that area of the world I think the AP should do better research...but I totally hear your point.

EDIT: F. I'm realizing now I replied to a post about my thoughts, something I said I wouldn't do. :dunno1:dunno1:dunno1:dunno1:dunno1

You think you guys could stand and fight if it came to it?

There is pretty much nothing I love more than America but it would be tough.

How the fuck did our grandparents do it?

Upping in the military and the whole basic training thing? Not a chance.
I know I’m too much of a chicken-shit to get through that. The nerves needed to know that you’re walking into a battle and still keep your shit together enough to do it are remarkable.

Now, if it was a Red Dawn situation and all the sudden I had to face someone down, I wouldn’t hesitate. Just don’t give me a chance to think about it and I’ll get it done.

Red Dawn was a movie commissioned and produced by the NRA.

I think they're 25 to 30 years into that. They are progressing to the same point that was reached by the UK, and Japan, and Germany, and the US - being an industrial leader raises their standard of living to a point where prices start shooting up, and the labor force doesn't want to do low-level work anymore.

Well at least they got something right.

Actually, South Korea is the new industrial power player. And there's always Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia. So you can go back to worrying about everything else.

Private Ryan. They are a thing. Basically they were a phrase for spots that made you easy to be picked off by the enemy because you didn’t have any cover.

First off, COOL!


Secondly, this article taught me that "tarp" is short for "tarpaulin". I had no idea. Had to Google the definition to hear how it is properly pronounced.
