Men's Epee results…

Ah! Now I see it

Try replacing your saline solution with hydrogen peroxide, seems to sting less than looking at it!

Plus the evolving Beatle Eras offered different tastes of Beatles music.

In other words, all their music doesn’t always sound the same.  Can’t say that of too many bands.

@Cmdr:

I fixed that just for you.  Not that you have noticed….ya know, that’s almost as bad as when my husband fails to notice I got a new haircut.

The babymomma would never notice when I shaved my face.  Even when she saw me with facial hair before I went into the shower, and none when immediately when I came out.  Always had to ask if I shaved.

Should be obvious.

@Jennifer:

Why were you stuck in the Army’s camp for misguided little boys so long, NCSC?

Well, originally I was there for Infantry Training for the PA National Guard (11C, my local guard unit was Combat Support, to had to learn to fire 4-deuces).  But, my knees that had been patched  back together after I tore them up at USAFA failed again…

But, rather than let a perfectly good former Academy puke go to waste, and since they were shorthanded in my Bat, they turned me into a Unit Supply NCO and Unit Armorer.  Went from Trainee to Trainer overnight.  Went from Barracks to BEQ.  And spent a year wearing a “Follow Me” patch instead of my “Bloddy Bucket” until my med board finally was processed.

Yep… it SUCKED!  But I loved it :-D

Ugh, yea the med-board process SUCKS for trainees!  They tried to make me go that route, I told em unless they could guarentee me a 30% or more disability they could shove it up their rosey red buttocks!  Then they tried to Chapter 5-1-2 me (medboard without a voluntary subject) and I called my congresswoman (who, since I’m in IL is a democrat) and she stopped that cold.

Now I’m assigned to the IL Nat’l Guard as in their IT dept.  But hey, at least I don’t have to move!

As for my AC being “broken” in Georgia, it was not Rune.  There just wasn’t an AC there!  Silly army…like we all want to camp or something…sheesh!

I was hoping someone would open a thread about this.  Here’s a piece I wrote while exchanging e-mails with a friend on Lost in Translation.  Hope it doesn’t give anything away.

Hmm…I am wondering if my comments right now are influenced by seeing Munich over the weekend.  I felt Spielberg was reaching for a particular audience, specifically the hard conservative Israelis.  While the movie isn’t sympathetic to the Palestinians, it’s not unsympathetic to them either.  But really, it creates very thin Palestinian characters without really exploring what it is they are doing.  I believe Spielberg chose this route because he wanted to appeal to those conservatives, who really don’t give a damn what the Palestinians feel or want or need.  Rather, the movie showed everything a right-wing Israeli would see:  murders, terror, etc.  It also expressed the rage, anger, and frustration of the conservatives as well.  But then it showed what the logical extension of all those feelings, what those ideas would lead to, and not on a social level, but a deeply personal one, especially how loving Israel can make you less Jewish.

As such, I don’t think this is an Israel-Palestine movie.  It’s something that has been done rarely:  an Israel-Israel movie.  It’s an attempt in my mind to bridge the gap between the deep divisions in Israeli society.  Or maybe not bridge, but convince the other side.  Hence, its appeal and its focus are tightly played on the self-destructive nature of revenge, typical in some ways of many revenge movies recently (with the notable exception of Quentin Tarrantino), but also elevating that sensibility and relating it to a concrete social dilemma.

Imperial Leader is calling other people “arrogant” . . . that’s pretty funny.
Are you saying this as an AMERICAN?  Or as another citizen of the world?  (please say American, please say American)

I am saying this as a  US’an a term i learned from a good friend. From now on thats what im calling all European- Americans. You are blinded by the light… such arrogance is a trait of those nations and people still thinking they run things but have lost their clout a long time ago. No im not talking about you!

Now for a word from our sponsers:

ISSAQUAH, Washington – A man was coaxed out of his home by police
after he pulled a gun and shot his personal computer, apparently in
frustration. “We don’t know if it wouldn’t boot up or what,” Sgt. Keith Moon
said Thursday. The computer, in a home office on the second floor of the
townhouse, had four bullet holes in the hard drive and one in the monitor.
One bullet struck a filing cabinet, while another made it through a
wall and into a neighboring unit. No one was hurt. Police evacuated the
complex, contacted the 43-year-old man by telephone and got him to come
out. He was taken to a hospital for a mental evaluation.
