I didn't forget. I remember psycho soccer mom Tipper.

I think an M-16 round runs about $.02 for the Army.

Got to figure in fuel food, pay, and other munitions, of course.
Nukes may be the most cost effective route.

The next Megadeth album has a title -- "United Abominations" -- but that's about it for the time being, according to Billboard.
"We're putting the finishing touches on it," reports Dave Mustaine, who's also preparing for the September 6 start of the second Gigantour festival. "We've got a little more work before it's finished, but it should be out some time next year."
Mustaine says an initial October 31 release date for the album, Megadeth's first as part of a new deal with Roadrunner Records, was "wishful thinking," and both the group and label felt a 2007 release was preferable to November or December of this year.
The singer/guitarist says the album, which he's producing with Jeff Balding, "has a lot of variation on it. It's got some surprises, but there's a really old-school vein to it, I would say." The group has been careful not to rush the album, either, holding sessions in London, Los Angeles and Nashville since earlier this year.
"We're taking our time with this one," Mustaine says. "It's a great feeling to make a record and not have our feet held to the fire. One of my heroes growing up was Kiss, but they really frustrated me 'cause they would put out a record just about every year. I couldn't figure that out. I pretty much have a cycle of about 18 months to 24 months between records. I just can't put them out any quicker than that and feel comfortable about them."
This being Megadeth, there will be some political underpinnings to the songs on "United Abominations." The title, in fact, comes from Mustaine's feelings about the United Nations' "failure to perform," particularly in crisis situations. "I was watching TV and saw the trucks that said 'UN' on them and said, 'Man, you are so uncool, ineffective, anything," he explains. "I thought, 'Wow, I've got to run with this. I got it -- United Abominations, 'cause it's an abomination what they're doing!"
Ever listen to PanterA ?
