Sorry I scared you with the bogeyman. As for everybody else, well, it is a wargaming forum. I figure they can handle the concept of an asymmetrical attack.

You're moving to Australia?

Well, yeah. Why should I give bugger all about his kids?

Ah yes, the reasoned rebuttal. Gee, why don't you just go read the article Jons? I didn't make the thing up. And I don't have kids.

I wasn't inventing them, I was just kinda responding to the posters who breezily dismiss the whole idea. They already have it in their little terrorist heads, and someday, it'll happen. If it hasn't already.

You're just catching up to January 10th?

Well, That ain't a bad result out at Kilmore, it being a soft target, especially if you think like a wacko. So what's the economic worth of 1,351 sq miles of forest products? Not to mention 5,000 people gone from productive to homeless and on the welfare roles. A double there. Granted, it lacks the cachet of say, a box cutter attack, but heck, we are generating Dresden-like firestorms, without having to buy and maintain all those B-17's. Welcome to the same desert we live in, infidel. I think I could recruit on it.

Actually, read it in an Aussie paper. http://www.theage.com.au/national/islam-group-urges-forest-fire-jihad-20080906-4b53.html?page=-1 Does note your point that it's hit and miss. But you got to admit, a pack of matches is pretty cheap. A threat is a threat, article says the Aussie intel agencies are on it.

My sympathy to the Aussies. http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090209/D9681TKG0.html Didn't know that staying in a burning house is the best thing you can do sometimes.

dalem really needs to log out when he has the Gnome over.

Oh, it is.

Well, if you don't count a gazillion gallons of oil. Think North Korea is just a wee bit shorter on the resources.

The Aussies like American space junk. Canada tends to attract the radioactive stuff.

Nope. Let's hope it lands in Canada, eh?

If it wasn't true, I think NORAD or somebody would have said they've gotten nothing on their scopes. So when you go outside today, just remember there's 40-100 kg of Iranian "Death To America" junk zipping by over your head.

Well, at least this time the SSN skipped the nut sack in that last pic. Things are really looking up around here.

Denny's got a liquor license?

I think he was talking to it. He is old you know.

What? And miss "falling down the hole in the fishhouse" season?

It would be more correct to say I lost count. But no matter, I shall be ordering another keg soon. Cut another notch in the liver.

Er, doesn't everybody?

You still have to declare bankruptcy in order to wipe the slate clean, just like everywhere else.

And on the plus side, there's always the off chance they'll get rear ended by a JAP on a cell phone.

They actually let you in to the rich neighborhoods?

As far as you know...
