One has to wonder if Japan will move their ASDF to Afghanistan (possibly at a later date) for it is the only one NATO troops are needed & used while Iarq was an American only & who-ever wanted to follow them?

Cdn has NO choppers & has been asking for…

Unfortunately being a m/c rider since back in '46 I have read similiar situations. It is a pity that someone will have a pillion rider of that age & probably not with proper protective riding gear.

To try & outrun the police is a true dumb thing & can lead…

Being a bit of a novice Pen & Ink sketcher pens always fasinate me & sometime I would like to see what they have produced. To even look upon one or more to possibly be usable for Pen & Ink sketching. Mind you ink has to be black & dry…

Using a few words from omarbabilon's post being "--being a peasant in some 3rd world nation or in the US.--" is so hard to fathom.

What I am seeing is a lot of people in strange mind compared to the rest of their country people. Obviously very, very moody, to…

bandogeek, I will have to admit that you took the words right out of my mouth. I could not even dream of ever having that much money, let alone dream of a million dollars, but you can be well assured if I did, then the money would NOT be wasted…
