Let's just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this? And there are those others who blow themselves up to get virgins. I think Guam men got it better than them! modified on Wednesday, January 14, 2009 10:46 AM

    If he's pointing it out, he could have just made a remark to that point, instead he uses the story as a platform for his usual idiotic dribble...oh well. :doh:

    Thats because MacArthur knew that he could mass force and counter attack. He went on the defense only long enough to resume the offensive. Until he (among others) did that, we were losing. Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

    I have seldom liked american rock. Lynyrd Skynyrd was about as good as it got, I count Hendrix as an English band. He was discovered in England and his backing group was English and that gave him that heavy English rock sound. I never like rock too polished, too flashy, I like the raw late 60s Englush sound, The Who, led zep, deep purple, pink floyd, small faces, yardbirds, stones, and so on. I am not old enlough to have heard them in my youth, but I got heavially into them later on. Have to say though I do like techno. I know its not guitar based but its got great ryhthym! I never played in a band though, just jammed with mates. Its somehting I want to do though, badly. Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription

    I wonder what names his mates there call him? When he was in Afghanistan it was 'Bullet magnet' which the Gurkhas found funny. This may well be taken out of context but noone seems to have checked. Visit http://www.notreadytogiveup.com/[^] and do something special today.
