Putting off an offensive may lead to your getting pounded by your opponents offensive. Ukraine will soon regret getting in bed with the US government.

General Dynamics should work with GM to make an EAbrams tank!

We could send them to Ukraine for real world testing.

I’ll also bet that all those strong chemicals many women put on the hair to make it straight like others can’t be good.

Might even be harming the environment like I’m told everything else does.

That's news to me. Up to this point I'd read that Russia was not flying sorties over Ukraine. Make me wonder why no good old fashioned bombing missions?

Does the Abrams get miles to a gallon or use gallons per mile of fuel?

Just try to imagine all the petroleum products being consumed by western powers in the defense of whatever is it we are defending.

And at the same time Biden is hell bent on not allowing Americans to drive petroleum powered vehicles here in the USA.

So much for oil destroying the planet. The American public must love being owned.

I just read a report here

https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/19/davos-volodymyr-zelensky-questions-if-vladimir-putin-is-still-alive-18127830/

where Zelensky states he doesn’t even know if Putin is alive? Z’s intelligence apparatus must be third world.

They are reporting cardiac arrest . Seems that’s been in the news a lot recently.

I remember the day her dad died. I’m getting old.

I remember Doc Manheimer from the movie "The Naked Gun". He's brilliant!

Good points. And for me I’m siding with Russia simply because my government and the media are on a massive propaganda campaign to convince me that Putin and Russia are the enemy. No critical analysis of what’s occuring, it’s just you must believe everything we tell you, else you are enemy too.

Exact same tactics they used on Trump and anyone or anything else they want to destroy.

Fool me once shame on me...

Don’t care. Making enough on interest combined with savings from working 40 plus years to live the lifestyle I like until my demise.

I don’t like inflation but I can roll with it. It’s the younger people with limited resources, and those that live paycheck to paycheck that are really feeling the pain.

I love it! Bring on higher rates! No debt and I’m making a killing on no risk CD’s!

Let the slugs who fed at the no interest trough feel some pain now.

And we wonder why we have to have Chinese/Koreans here on h1b/h2b visas.

Straight from the horses mouth, the DOD. At the bottom of their page it says this which I find humorous:

Our mission is to provide the military forces needed to deter war and ensure our nation's security.

When you give stuff away, you have to replace it.

All by design so the defence contractors get new orders and the politicians get their rewards.

Old news by now.

The military will take anyone now.

Out in my shop during this cold snap. Maybe 25 degrees?

I noticed my lithium weed eater battery chargers had a blinking red light ( I keep them always charging).

On the charger it stated. Bilking red light, battery too cold. Cannot charge (or something to that effect).

I never did in the first place.

Whether or not you like Russia, they must have a fantastic misinformation system in play. The had the entire western media and maybe NATO believing they had exhausted their missile inventory.

Interesting. On the Wegovy website it states this:

It is not known if Wegovy™ is safe and effective for use in children under 18 years of age.
