I know there were a couple actor-types that promised to move if Bush was elected, and never did. Darn, I wish I could remember his name... I don't think it was Penn, it was the guy that had the phone call with his 11 year old released where he was screaming at herand calling her foul names. Hey, right and left we all need to keep each other in line. It's the extreme on either side that leads to disaster.

(AP) 9/15/08
According to preliminary calculations, the Dow fell 504.48, or 4.42 percent, to 10,917.51, moving below the 11,000 mark for the first time since mid-July. It was the worst point drop for the Dow since it lost 684.81 on Sept. 17, 2001, the first day of trading after the terror attacks. It was also the sixth-largest point drop in the Dow, just behind the 508.00 it suffered in the October 1987 crash.

Thank you. BTW, please note my earlier comment I said idle threat, not idle promise. There's a subtle distinction there. We're all in this together. :bball:

Canada? I do love hockey and pike fishing... But I don't think a cold war is enough to make me move. As far as Hugo goes, wouldn't it be nice if he had a little "accident".... But if we have another bay of pigs incident just a little further south, wouldn't that be fun? I have yet to be sent to South America for anything, it's the last continent that I have to visit. So the upside to all this is if we end up staging out of, oh lets say Brazil, I'll get a chance to visit there and I'll have a dot on every chunk of land on the map.

The bad part is I really don't want to go to war again. But I'll go again if need be because that's what I signed up to do.

I know we emptied out a lot of bases in Europe during the 90's and even the past few years so i wonder how many we'll reopen if any.

So much to plan for, so little time. Just hope nobody farts at the UN while sitting next to Russia....

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.

Remember:
Water = Poop,
Wine = Health.

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of poop
There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.

I wonder who we are going to war with? Somebody, something, or someone......who's on first?

Fly Fishing is the art of attaching a fake bug to a line and relying on the appropriate manipulation of the rod to deceive the fish into eating a sharp steel hook covered with feathers and fur.
