Well, the UAW refused to agree to wage cuts, so the Big Three will soon become the Smaller Two.

Hah, just ordered the wife a fancy electric knife sharpener for Xmas. Am I fearless or what?

Put bourbon in it, and it won't bother you so much. Repeat as necessary.

More of a crumple, really...

It is by rail. And I really didn't want to attempt Azerbaijan till I had more coffee.

Not quite landlocked though. You can still ship through Georgia to the Caspian, then across to Turkmenistan, then down to Kabul from the north. More expensive, but safer perhaps.

I can see it, man, I can just see it. But you forgot to add the dog underfoot barking his fool head off and the cat looking disgusted, as usual.

Wait a tic, the silly bugger has to challenge others to play five games first! Sheesh, Shaw, is the standards of our House to slip even lower than when you let me in?

I say we make that Major make them do those things first. Should be worth a laugh.

Nah. The idjit is bolding SSN. Ok, ok, it could be stoat, but I doubt it. stoat had trouble just hitting the "post" button. This one's ubb is too spot on.

It's not nice to stab Mother Nature...

Er, weren't Saab and Volvo well on their way to going out before? Thought the US purchase brought them back.

Oh, you guys missed the best part of the whole story. Little tip for you, that pricey Official NFL gear you want for Xmas? Cheap elastic.

Damn, I was looking forward to a little persecution. How about we go ahead and prosecute him, but tie up the stenos this time?

Probably to that nice Italian place down the street.

Yeah. Go post on the forum I told you to post on. Read the FAQ, follow all the steps, and if that don't work, post your log and somebody will be along shortly to fix your problem. They're very good, they will fix it. Whatever you got is just going to keep on installing itself until you do.

What the hell...? Let me eat my turkey first, sheesh.

Go here. http://majorgeeks.com/ Go to the Support Forums, look or post in the Malware section. Do whatever they tell you to do.

Hey, his Tivo just got up to 1995, give him a break.

Yes, but there's no need to throw away a perfectly good airframe. They do it all the time with missile drones and such. You can save the uber-unmanned fighter budget argument till even later this way.

It involved dalem's dog Sten, can't remember who the heck said it though.

Hmm…. Why not just build the F-22, and if you someday get a computer good enough to run it without a pilot…Hey, there's a suddenly empty seat right there! What a neat space to stuff the Big Black Box! Yes, the Drones are coming, but I think they will look suspiciously like manned fighters when they get here, as the design requirements are pretty much the same. Wings, check. Engine, check. Stealth, check. Landing Gear, check…etc.

And mine.

Or Berkeley.

Silly boy, who do you think gave it to me? We have wine tastings (and beer, and hard stuff), and when the gal doing the tastings quits, she leaves all the open bottles behind and the regular staff gets to take whatever they want. It all comes out of the distributor's pocket. And they don't care, because they know who's going to be recommending wine to customers the rest of the year. Odd how they always have to open a fresh bottle for that last customer though. Oh, wait a tic, that was me…
