Here, still nursing a cold so I'll be in and out
Rush's tongue was drilling a hole in his cheek
I finally understand the hacksaw. I'm really curious how Jack's going to take care of Nina Meiers (I'm still in Season 2, although now 1/2 way through)...
I found you without the ping!
LOL
Let's just put it this way....he takes care of her "real good".......................with a little extra "ump".
Secrets Stolen From U.S. Fuel Russian Sub Program; Possible Hanssen Tie
Thursday, June 14, 2001
By Bryan Bender
Even as the U.S. and Russian presidents meet, the Putin government is moving to counter U.S. military might -- with technology from an unusual source: the U.S. Navy stolen by a division of Toshiba Electronics.
It appears that Russia has penetrated the American submarine program, possibly through the work of former FBI agent Robert Hanssen.
For years, Russia's underfunded navy has languished in port and new ship construction has virtually ceased. But two new vessels have been put to sea in recent weeks, surprising Western intelligence.
Early this month, the Russian navy began sea trials of a new, third-generation Akula II-class nuclear-powered attack submarine, the Gepard, in the White Sea. The Gepard is to be delivered for service in the Northern Fleet in July. Moscow has also deployed a Delta III nuclear ballistic missile submarine in the Pacific Ocean from the port of Petropavlovsk on the Kamchatka Peninsula - the first such deployment in months.
The attack submarine Gepard represents a fundamental surprise. The vessel was estimated to be five years behind schedule and was believed to be part of a vast body of evidence that Russia's fleet is in a poor state. The Gepard, however, represents an important qualitative, as well as quantitative, departure from recent shipbuilding trends.
In some respects, the new attack sub is believed to be superior to the U.S. Navy's Los Angeles-class attack subs. Capable of moving as fast and as quietly, the Gepard can dive deeper than the American vessels and has more firepower than its counterparts, according to Russian media reports and independent naval experts.
But the Russian ship program also appears to be aided by an unwitting suspect: the U.S. Navy. The Russian navy apparently has garnered significant technology that will enable it to make future submarines quieter and harder to detect. This technology probably has come from Russian espionage that has penetrated the U.S. submarine program, according to intelligence sources.
This from a Fox news report.
I say hook her to a beer wagon.
In classic Jack Bauer fashion.
I hope they replay that parody. I missed the first part of it :)
Good, I've come to hate her. Does Jack ever get a love interest or is he always too busy?
Rush is becoming a bigger jackass by the day. His rationalization of the Dubai deal is foolish. He and Bush are so invloved in this, "Lets be good to them and they will be good to us,BS." they are missing the point. This is a culture war!!!!
This is undoubtedly from someone who has not read the Muslim history or has spent any time reading their guidelines in the Koran. From,"Sword of the Prophet."
"The progression was from Dar al Sulh - when the Muslims are minority community, and they need to adopt temporily a peaceful attitude in order to deceive their neighbors - to Dar al Harb, when the territory of the infidel becomes a war zone by definition."
Trust a Muslim! You willing to bet your life on it?
I love his satire!
Jack's lifestyle keeps him from ever having a love interest that last more than a short time (at least through season 5)....Audrey is the worst one yet...very needy....

Woohoo... If you miss it, you don't know Jack!
That's too bad, but understandable.
Hello MNJohnnie,
Could you please include me in your ping list?
Good morning all. Hope I didn't leave anyone out.

Don't start giving away spoilers. I'm only to the end of Season One on DVD and have all of this season still unwatched on my DVR.
I already know Jack's wife in season one dies (the jacket cover on Season 2 DVDs gave that away), I have a feeling it's due to her stomach problem...don't wanna know [fingers in ears, eyes closed, nah nah nah nah nah...]
