Tux of Borg

We use to train with shotguns in urban environments. The 3rd man would blow the lock with a shotgun and kick the door open. Then two riflemen would clear the room. The army started teaching target inquiry about 10 or so years ago. We'd practice going through mock cities with popup targets in it. The pop up targets were either a civilian or an enemy solider, and you had about 1/2 a second to decide and shoot. They have made major advancements in urban warfare in the past 10 years or so. I remember taping a mag light to the end of my m-16 and clearing the room with that. With the M-4, pac-4 and improvements in nightvision, clearing rooms got a lot easier. I even got to test the warrior 2000 garbage a few years back. What a nightmare! I'm glad the military scrapped that waste of money.

Miami has loss to both UNC and Clemson this year. Those who watched the game, did it appear to be pass interference on the last play of the game? I thought it looked like the defense player grabed the receiver's arms while the ball was in the air.

I'll all for prepping the objective with artillery. I hope the enemy isn't dug in deep, such as the Japanese at Iwo Jima. Bombing in that case would be ineffective. I have a feeling that the US will try to take this city tactically. Which as most people suggested, will come at a high price. Best advice I ever got concerning urban warfare came from a Panama veteran. He said if all hell breaks lose, follow the guys who grew up in the inner city. They will always lead you to safety.

Don't they teach people how to tackle down in Florida.

I'd like to see a swimsuit competition with the daughters.

Janet Reno look-a-likes that live in their parents basement. How can you make stuff like this up!

Whatever the issue may be... I'm sure Jessie Jackson will personally investigate and come to a fair and balanced conclusion of what really happened.

Get up, hook up, slide down a rope.... an air assault trooper ain't nothing but a joke. They still call it Fayattenam around there. They've cleaned up Hey Street, but they still have 30 pages of escort services in the yellow pages. The base is fully locked down now and you have to go through a check point to get in.

The webhosting company I use to work for hosted a website called, toplessgolf.com. Don't ask me what those girls did, because i still don't know.

Your friend probably wasn't there, but the 82nd was originally slotted to be the invasion/occupying force for both Haiti and Kosovo. In both cases we were rigged up and in the air to the adjective. Fortunately both times the planes were turned back before we reached the drop zone. The 101st got a lot of the publicity in Afghanistan. You never saw it on the news, but the ranger battalion got its ass handed to them over there. The army quickly got them out and replaced them with the 101st, which was later replaced by the 82nd.

The 101st isn't a true airborne unit anymore. They do mostly air assault stuff now days, such as repelling out of helicopters. If you want to do the true airborne stuff you'll need to join the 82nd. Welcome to Fort Bragg, home of the airborne and special operations forces.

As long as there is an NHL lockout, the Bills have us by the balls if we like it or not. I'm a season ticket holder and haven't been called yet. I wouldn't give the poor bastard that called me a hard time. He's not the one putting the product on the field.

The American flag is something you put over an American casket, not something you burn at a frat party. It's no different from Hanoi Jane sitting in front of an anti-aircraft gun. Just because our constitution gives you the right to do it, doesn't mean its in good taste.

Na... i point.

***Raises his glass to salute Neil, Howard and the rest of the Empire family.***

What would Stifler say.... "look you !@#$in kitty". Gotta love those American Pie movies.

I enlisted in the army a week after I turned 18. I was a paratrooper in the 82nd airborne for 3 years. Jumped out of planes, slept in the mud, and went to ranger school. Out of 13 guys that arrived to my battalion that day. Only two of us EST at the end of our enlistment. The others were killed, medically discharged, or kicked out for drugs. I switched to the "other side" and became an intelligence analyst in the national guard. I did a deployment to the desert with them, as well as spent time working at the south eastern intelligence center.

That's because there were no gun control laws.

Those who burn the American flag are nothing but a POS. "Look at me" posters are one thing, burning the flag is another.

I wonder if Sheriff Joe Arpaio has any vacancy.

If you wait another week you might get a good deal on Bledsoe's house.

I had a B word empty out my savings account and then dump me. I got her back though... when she was at work I went to her house and pepper sprayed everything. The door handles, the toilet seat, her pillows and clothes. That night she went out partying and got home late. Imagine her surprise when she started to get a burning sensation. She called all my friends at 3am trying to track me down. Boy was she pissed.

It's going to happen, just like how McGahee stepped up to take the job from Henry. First JP will come into a losing game in the 4th quarter. Next week he'll be brought in at half time. Before you know it JP will be starting.

Thay can't increase the sales tax. The rest of the country hasn't caught up from the last time they did that.

What do I think.... nobody circles the wagons like the buffalo bills.
