I would like to see us do the same instead of sitting on our fat asses whining.

We can take a lesson from them.

I wish these Iranian patriots well, and wish them success.

My best regards to them.

Thanks. I tried to get an existing thread changed to Live and placed in "Breaking."

I guess the mods are not awake yet.

“But if we have a revolution like this I would have to ask my boss for the day off.”

Hey, I can relate to that.

We always held our protests again Noriega after lunch.

Several of us would ask for the afternoon off, we would have lunch near the start point, then go off to riot.

I miss those days.
