Default we are going to WAR

Short wave radio is reporting that we might be going to war this weekend. Somebody needs to call George "baby" and tell him to postpone until after Florida Jets so that while we are traveling to Florida from Texas sucking gas in the RV at 7mpg and we are not paying $2.00 a gallon. I guess if everything does wad up in this country while we are down there we can all just hang out and have Florida Jet Month. It would not hurt my feeling none. I will tell you one thing, if any terrorist wants to come across that runway, they will have to go through me first, standing nekid in the middle of it with a bottle of Jack Daniels in one hand and the 44 magnum in the other. If that wont scare them off, nothing will and they can have the place.

Hell, Texans don't even have to dress to fly models airplanes. Ask Doug about it at FL Jets. I can tell you one thing, it's a sight you don't want to see.

Default This weekend

Too much moon this weekend, washes out the NVG's. probably closer to the end of the month! Besides, with all the reserves (150,000) called up this week the bad guys are expecting it this weekend.

Yeah. Let me ask Achmed, down at the gas station. Soon as he can find the oil dipstick on my car, I'll ask him about what's beyond the event horizon. And his brother Mahmood, as soon as he can figger out how to keep the tire pump running for more than half a minute on two of my quarters, I'll take a look at the particle accelerator he has been bragging about...

Yup. Whatever money Arab sheiks are making, you can bet your sweet burkah that US oil companies are making a lot more. They always do.

Doug,
You can go in my place and I'll go to Florida Jets.
We'll load your F-18 with Jack Daniels, C-4 and moose trailer farts then launch it at Bagdad

Aww, you poor little ickle widdumses, paying way under $2 per gallon. We pay almost $5 per US gallon equivalent and the stuff comes out of the North Sea right next to us. About $4 of that is government tax. Be warned America, communists like Prime Minister Tony Blair who is a former member of unilateralist ban-the-bomb C.N.D. and give in to the USSR organisation, whose Labour Party gave the jet engine to the Soviet Union so it could copy it and build the Mig15 around it to shoot at you in Korea, are BAD news.

$1.91 here now. This has got to come to an end, one way or the other. The lack of knowing is ruining all of us. I have faith that our president will figure it. The rest of the world is waiting on what? The moment they get a nuke set off in their country! This is going to need closure soon, we can't be kept in the air for long. If it comes to us destroying two nations (I and K) then so be it. We can't live under this fear forever. They should have never come up with these devices in the first place. Think of all the resources that are being used in the name of killing. It boggles the mind. Think of what will happen when the price of gas is $4 a gallon. You know that is coming. We live in a world of greed, and I am just becoming so aware of that now. There has not been a job offering here in upper NY in three years. Even Mc Donald’s is getting rid of people. Sooner or later someone is going to figure out that if is nothing made here people will not be able to buy things. I really think that the economy as it is right now is at best only a small taste of what is coming. Heck I would welcome a job de fusing dirty bombs. I have nothing more to loose. Using old wording "Shi_T or get off the pot" No I did not go out and buy plastic and duck tape. I figure the best thing that could happen to my town is that it is removed from the gene pool. It just don't get much woorse then here. Respect: Ken

Marc: cut me some slack here.. Ken

Who's whining?

*******************
I'm really bummed that our forefathers defeated your forefathers a long time ago because I could also be helping to save the planet with a huge gas tax payed to the government.

I guess the people in the UK have mixed emotions when their military fly those gas guzzling pollution spewing aircraft.

Hey my hat is off to the UK ( planet savers ), keep on keeping on.
