Ghost of BiB

Just curious. Can you black powder in those counties?

. As CTM pointed out, it wasn't the job of the military planners to worry much about that at the time. A whole LOT of military people knew that if things didn't go a certain way, the aftermath was going to be trouble. That's where I was alluding to the "original planners", essentially politicians who wanted to achieve certain goals, and laid out the objectives. It's kind of a running joke that the Pentagon was pretty well told "You get 100,000 people to do this thing - we don't care if it takes 50,000 or 150,000 - you plan using 100." I'm not saying that's true or anything...

MI2 sucked so bad, that's not a huge sacrifice. Works for me.

Yeah, I did.

I thought you were going to sneak out to "see me". Liar.

You just jumping in for ***** and giggles, or what?

I actually had one for "Reptile Study". Had a cooking merit badge too. Also one for marksmanship (yes, a real live gun) and life saving...had to know how to swim and also how to get someone out of the water and get them breathing again. Canoeing? Not that easy, had to pre requisite both swimming and life saving. But, that was many years ago. Now a days, about the only one that is a boy type thing would be cooking. It's America.

piffle?

I hear you. I'm not doing it anymore either, I've had my epiphany (spelling?). Has nothing to do with politics. I'm 49 years old, soon to be 50. I've been in war since I was 18. I'm not a fan of TV, but I watch it. Time to go do something else.

I appreciate the compliment. Thank you. A lot of people know how to make it better, they just can't.

I thought all the managers here thought he'd go to New England?

I'm still enjoying being the "Town Dick". Don't rain on my parade.

Don't be a tease. You know as well as I do it's groundhog day. Sum up my other posts. Oh, but I'm such a neo-con.

That's pretty well what I figured.

I tried to explain that, but I didn't do a very good job. Flight suit, nose bleed or whatever.

There's about a thousand fifty posts for those who can't live without Lost, 24, American Idol and whatever. I've poked fun maybe 4 or 5 times. Of course it's good. I've been told so. I always do what I'm told. I'm sorry for dissing everyone. My bad. I'm sorry. Can't never have a comment from anyone who has watched a show and didn't become a fan. If you have a contrary opinion, you should go away. From what I've seen, the plot lines on the "dramas" are generally dumb and contrived and American Idol is a publicity contest with gals not looking all that hot. 24 is worse than a joke. But, I haven't disrupted anything anyway. Have I stopped any of you? No.

I'd be very, very nervous on anyone scoring a 6. The squirrell sleeping on my fencepost can score a six. I just think it's important, and not at all an intangible. But, anything linking the word intelligence to anything seems like a "your a geek, dude...go away".

Don't tempt me, Scraps didn't get it.

Hit a nerve? Guess you don't read anything else on the board. People jump in all the time with crap that they have no idea what they are talking about. It being a TV show makes it important. God Bless Television. Or, is that the new God? OK, I'll stay away from your fan fests and keep my lame comments to myself. It does bug me a little bit that many of those so entrenched in American Idol, Lost and 24 don't seem to know or care about much past that. And as we've chatted before, you know what I'm talking about. So, I'm lame because I'm not scheduling my life to see a TV show. Guess I'm an old fuddy duddy. Ask the mods to ban me.

Probably no bigger nightmare for most people. Any symbolism?

I have to stick with my strengths. I don't think I'm stopping anyone from their avocation or opinion, and my thoughts are obviously not the norm... But, was it homemade ranch, or something from a pouch?

Might let the Bills in. After all, making one playoff game is what it's all about, no matter how you do it.

Trying to prove a point or agreeing that the "Wonderlic" isn't the best avenue?

Ranch dressing? I can't believe I've never watched the show. Damn.

Days of Our Lives comes on at 12, doesn't it?
