Bovington's Tiger to feature in new film.

James will never be a Laker and actually nobody good wants to be a Laker.

LOL… I love that last one.

During the last session of our teaching workshop, participants were asked to state their personal goals for the immediate future.  One teacher vowed to update photo albums, another to lose weight.  The goal that got the most response, however, was given by a slightly out-of-shape kindergarten teacher.  “I resolve to exercise until I can complete a 20-minute workout in less than an hour.”

@ZimZaxZeo:

Now, I dig your logic … and I would add simply that the people of the American nation either have to be for democracy, and this can only be universal democracy, or they have to be against it. Perhaps this Kaplan is using some seige mentality “warrior” reasoning that prefers to avoid messy things like differences of opinion between nations, in favor of having a nice, neat, manageable world where the US gets all the goodies while five billion other people can live under dictators and totalitarian regimes.

I totally agree with you (your arguing with a universal democracy), that’s why i find it …. in german you’d call it “perfide”, having one thing, but for your very own and selfish interest not wanting that others have it, especially when it is regarded as a common “good”.

BTW, we didn’t have an India thread this far AFAIR. And even though it still may be (i wasn’t there) a tolerant nation, i fear that fanatism might rise there, though i hope it does not.

And you don’t think we oppose them too? But so far, no hate crimes have been committed or buildings exploded. I say that would be Democracy at work.

@TG:

Haha, good historical joke (is it alright if I call it that) you go there! :wink:

But little tidbit about Hitler’s chauffer having to drive backwards has more to do about his Eagle’s Nest in Obersalzberg. Apparently Hitler was so afraid of heights on his way to the mountain hideaway that he forced his chauffer to drive backwards on their way up!

Drugs does that to you!

@TM:

Be nice to Sir Horten! The Komet is a fine looking plane, and I am sure anyone would love to fly one…

Everyone would want to fly a Komet!!??? Yeah, right. Only if they’re planning on committing suicide. :wink:

@TM:

You are just mad that you couldn’t think of something better first.

Yes, why don’t I buy bmbs every turn? I’m sure that’s real inventive. What genius plot do you have in store next, why don’t I build battleships every turn? Oh wait, you already tried that! :P

Never mind… 20/3 is NOT a round number… ignore me
