  1. Yep! Remember all that nuclear material they hid under concrete in Chernobyl during the 1980's! That would obviously include Spetznaz! He will be shortly! Once the CIA get's some "irrefutable evidence"! It's already been shown that Kiev's Chicken industry presents a "clear & present danger" to Colonel Saunders of Kentucky! Especially the ready-cooked stuff they ship out from Chernobyl!!! The region WILL become unstable (under the weight of all the Abrams & Bradleys)! That's an easy one. They probably used the same voting machines as Ohio! So... I'm sure that relief is on it's way for those poor oppressed Guatemal...Somal...Yugoslav...Afgha... Sudane...irani... Ukranians! Then all will be well and the world will be at peace. They DO have oil... Don't they? Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  2. The Americans helped the Brits out in WWII for the best of reasons: Prior to 07/12/1941: Arms sales and the "Lend-Lease" agreement. It was widely held that while Germany was unlikely to invade Britain, Britain & Empire was unable to defeat the Axis. It would take something insane, like The USSR & America to join forces with Britain. Meanwhile, there were weapons to sell (and money to make). Under Lend-Lease, America got military bases on the doorstep of a future German dominated Europe. Post 07/12/1941: Japan attacked America. America declared war on Japan. Under the terms of the German-Japan treaty, Germany was obliged to declare war on Japan's enemy (America) and render Japan aid. America did not declare war on Germany... It was the other way around! Regarding the Ukraine: Like so many states created after WWI, the collapse of the austro-Hungarian Empire, and The Russian Revolution, Ukraine's boundaries were drawn on a map with little thought for ethnicity. The country is divided between the pro-Europe northwest, and the pro-Russian southeast. Hopefully, it will be a "velvet" secession with Ukraine becoming 2 states rather like the former Czechoslovakia. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  8. Ahhh... You've gotta love the Liberals and the socialists. Unfortunately the only Liberal I rememeber coming to power was Mussolini, who campaigned on a platform of liberal reform (and making the trains run on time). And then there's those famous German Socialists Eric Hoeneker and Adolf Hitler. Remember that Hitler campaigned (and won) on a manifesto of "Work & Bread for all". Now isn't that a good Liberal Socialist principle? These particular Socialists & Liberals also had a penchant for "correcting" history, religion, and ultimately thought (!!) but always for the good of all the people who they governed. Mike. Edited to ask: Who was it that originally said "Scratch a Liberal and find a Dictator"? (or similar)? Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  11. I've got the Lamy M21 for precision target writing... But for all-weather, general "street" use I prefer the German licensed version of the Fischer. this makes sure that I can use it to write the ticket regardless of weather conditions and paper. Plus it's more compact and faster in use. I was thinking of fitting a laser designator to the Fischer for greater accuracy on the speeding tickets... What do you think? WHERE'S MY JOKES!!!??? Mike.

  12. The answer to this knotty question may well lie in this article from that internationally renowned publication, The Rockall Times. http://www.therockalltimes.co.uk/2004/11/15/arafat-tribute.html "While the world mourns the death of Yasser Arafat — Father of a Nation™, Beloved Leader®, Semi-professional Terrorist© — our analysts at The Rockall Times have been tirelessly thumbing through the Middle East edition of Who's Who to identify a likely successor to the Palestinian leader. He'll be a hard act to follow, to be sure. For 40 long years Arafat fought tirelessly to secure his dream of a Palestinian homeland where laughing children could gambol carefree through the olive groves. Instead, after four decades of intermittant fighting during which both he and the Israelis bored just about everyone in the world senseless with their endless squabbling, he succeeded only in creating a homeland where laughing Israeli troops gambol carefully though the olive groves while shoe-free children bombard them with rocks. And yet we must remember Arafat's undoubted contributions to humanity — from the 1970s penchant for Intifada chic among left-wing German terrorist organisations to, well, were we to list all of the Great Leader's acheivements they would stretch at least to the end of this sentence, and possibly a short distance beyond. But that must now be the stuff of history and legend, because the time is upon the nation of Palestine at which it must select a new figurehead, a worthy heir who can herald a new age of another 40 years of intermittant fighting and boring the world senseless with endless squabbling with Israel. The task is an onerous one, to be sure: Ahmed Qurei: Prime minister Qurei is slated to take temporary control of the Palestinian Authority and is seen by many as the natural permanent successsor to Arafat. Not by the Israelis, though, on the grounds that he is Arab, Palestinian and shared many a happy hour with his old mate Yasser playing Intifada on the X-Box during his boss's long confinement in his Ramala compound. Ariel Sharon: Sharon has the full backing of the US administration and is likely to prove an effective force in restoring order to the post-Arafat Palestinian proto-state. With plenty of American cash to mount an effective presidential campaign, he can also rely on Israel's military to assist in the lobbying process. Know to be fond of a pie or two, but not pork, which will endear him to the Arab electorate. Boris Johnson: The highly-talented and ebullient Johnson suddenly finds himself at a loose end after Tory party supremo Vlad the Impaler sacked him for lying over an affair with posh hack babe Petronella Wyatt. Although he has certainly tainted the Conservatives' immaculate record for personal morality and integrity with his sordid fumblings, he can be relied on to raise a laugh with his lightning public-school wit and foppish charm. Might be just what the Middle East needs — a charismatic figurehead who can unite Arab and Jew against their common enemy: the whining Liverpudlian. John Kerry: The failed US presidential candidate seems now to have few employment options in his native land apart from scrubbing toilets in a fast-food emporium. Palestine, however, could offer the battle-hardened politico a fresh start on the international stage — knocking up concrete for the Israeli security wall for two bucks an hour. Natasha Kaplinsky: The highly-talented news presenter and front woman for Strictly Come Dancing has never made any secret of her desire to one day run an independent state — any independent state as long as it keeps her handsome visage before the world's TV audiences. Would look very fetching in an Arafat-style keffiyeh and combat fatigues, and no-one would deny that she would blow up airliners or order the kidnap of Israeli athletes were it expedient to the advancement of her cause. Great legs, a slick operator on the dance floor and a winning smile. What more does the cause of world peace need? Michael Moore: Probably the only man in Christendom who could talk as an equal to Ariel Sharon on that most pressing on international matters: who makes the biggest pies and where can I get some of them right now? Moore has spent so long telling US presidents how to run their country that he is certainly eminently qualified to run his own. And if things turn nasty, the Israelis have only to stop pizza deliveries to Moore's Ramala headquarters to force capitulation in minutes. Bono: Undoubtedly the only man in Christendom who can talk to any world leader as an equal on that most pressing of international matters: why are you not doing what I tell you right now before I get my mate Sting down here and we peace ballad you into submission? The roving rock pundit has been dispensing wisdom to world potentates for years and would certainly resolve the small matter of a Palestinian homeland in a couple of minutes. The peoples' choice." But I'm sure that the good people here can come up with even better choices... Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  13. cops carry a lot of pens to keep folks under control. Superb! Now it's a pen thread! I say we should ban the concealed carry of pens. And all you other pen nuts out there...

  14. I'm pretty certain that YOU are too well balanced and law-abiding to seriously consider such a thing. The idea is that you could then only sell on to another licensed person or licensed dealer so the gun's tracked from owner to owner, all of whom have been positively vetted as suitable persons to hold firearms. Also, please quote me fully! Me & PJ have already agreed that registration and licensing is a double edged sword (as was proved in Britain in the last 20 years). Registration & licensing of firearms (like cars and drivers) has it's benefits ONLY if that is where it stops!! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  15. The worrying thing is that it's actually unlikely to be the dealers who're actually supplying weapons to criminals. Here's a stray thought. In the US I'd probably be able to buy guns legally. From there and with the right contacts I guess I'd be able to pass the gun on for an extra $100 to someone who couldn't go into the store to buy one! Which brings us right back to Registration and licensing being a good thing... BUT... The possible implications of registration and licensing (like it being the thin end of the wedge) being a bad thing. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  16. You've gotta remember that this is quite a tense period in German history. You see, Germany used to be lots of little countries that spent their time fighting each other. Then around 1889 they all got together and a few years later started fighting everybody else! Then around 1945 they got split up again and were fighting each other. Then in 1989 they got together again... And here we are a few years later!!! So personally I'm pleased about anything that curbs their aggression. Plus I'm kind of reassured that the driver can still be seen making these gestures 'cos that wouldn't be possible if he was in, say, a tank! Mike.

  18. Yeah... Probably the more attractive organisation, but The Girl Guides always was...! Anyway, having realised that I am still segregating boys & girls in a politically incorrect fashion, it'll have to be...: "Anti Religion, Segregational & Heterosexual Organisation for Leadership of Emerging Youth." Hopefully The ACLU (and The Pentagon in turn) will fully support the formation of ARSeHOLEY troops throughout the US. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  19. I concur wholeheartedly. Now excuse me while I go into another mode.... Perhaps The Pentagon should take a long hard look at themselves. Meanwhile, instead of attacking an existing body, the ACLU should form a suitable alternative, something like: "The Atheist Arse-Bangers Young Boys Movement" Then THEY could approach The Pentagon for suitable support based on the number of kids who've joined? Wouldn't that be fair? Mike. Edited to remove any hint of Female or Lesbian discrimination: "The Godless Buzzy Beavers." Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  20. "On my honour I promise I shal do my best. To do my duty to God and to the Queen. To help other people. And to keep the Scout Law" An oath of allegiance to your deity, and to your head of state. No mention of Christianity. Only a promise of belief and patriotism. I bet that anywhere else "Queen" would be replaced by "State" or similar. "God" is God whether he's called Allah, Krishna, L.Ron Hubbard, or whatever. Mike. Edited to add: Incidentally The Scout Association is unique in that it's leaders get NO financial reward whatsoever, and are expected to pay their way for the privelege of Scouting. It's kind of frowned on even to claim expenses. Any monies raised are spent on the kids. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  21. Quote time: "Should you find yourself in danger, with your enemies at hand, Would you want a politician with his ever-shifting stand? Or would you prefer a soldier, who has sworn to defend His home, his kin and Country and would fight until the end? Lawrence Vaincourt, 1985. And, of course, Kipling..... "TOMMY I went into a public-'ouse to get a pint o' beer, The publican 'e up an' sez, "We serve no red-coats here." The girls be'ind the bar they laughed an' giggled fit to die, I outs into the street again an' to myself sez I: O it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, go away"; But it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play, The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play, O it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play. I went into a theatre as sober as could be, They gave a drunk civilian room, but 'adn't none for me; They sent me to the gallery or round the music-'alls, But when it comes to fightin', Lord! they'll shove me in the stalls! For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, wait outside"; But it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide, The troopship's on the tide, my boys, the troopship's on the tide, O it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide. Yes, makin' mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep Is cheaper than them uniforms, an' they're starvation cheap; An' hustlin' drunken soldiers when they're goin' large a bit Is five times better business than paradin' in full kit. Then it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, 'ow's yer soul?" But it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll, The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll, O it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll. We aren't no thin red 'eroes, nor we aren't no blackguards too, But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you; An' if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints, Why, single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints; While it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, fall be'ind", But it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind, There's trouble in the wind, my boys, there's trouble in the wind, O it's "Please to walk in front, sir", when there's trouble in the wind. You talk o' better food for us, an' schools, an' fires, an' all: We'll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational. Don't mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face The Widow's Uniform is not the soldier-man's disgrace. For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!" But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot; An' it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' anything you please; An' Tommy ain't a bloomin' fool -- you bet that Tommy sees!" Last... And perhaps most important... "These, in the day when heaven was falling, The hour when earth's foundations fled, Followed their mercenary calling And took their wages and are dead. Their shoulders held the sky suspended; They stood, and earth's foundations stay; What God abandoned, these defended, And saved the sum of things for pay. ~A.E. Housman~ Mike.

  22. I'm also a smoker, and I do enjoy a cigarette with my drink & pub meal, and restaurant meal if it comes to that. I also enjoyed being able to smoke on aircraft (especially the long haul ones). But... I had to learn to live with not smoking on aircraft and there are always ways around that (nicotine patches, those "nicopen" things you can suck on, etc...)... And of course the obligatory dash to the nearest airport exit with ciggie in one hand and lighter in the other. That's easy, you just follow the trail of freshly discarded "Nico-Patches". Anyway, while I'm not particularly keen on the blanket smoking ban (why not license "smoking" pubs and offer a choice?), when it comes into force I'll learn to live with it. Personally I don't see it as overly important and I'm not going to stop eating out and drinking out just 'cos I can't smoke. Anyone who IS going to change their habits because of the smoking ban needs help! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

  23. "...non-christian or homosexual members allowed to join?" As a former scout leader, (& based on my interviews to become so), I can confirm that the Scout Association in the UK (and I understand worldwide) does NOT require either Christianity OR Hererosexuality. The Scout Asociation (as an association promoting certain moral values) DOES require a belief in a higher deity, and would object to ANY promotion of specific types of sexual activity with heterosexuality sort of "advocated by silence on the matter". There certainly were both non-Christian and homosexual scout leaders in the UK in my time. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.
