I had to sign up with youtube to get to watch it but I cannot believe that the site will host this video! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63188 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63188 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 22:55:49 -0600 I pinged Chris about that today. Sent him a note with a "minus 10" for spelling. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63182 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63182 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 18:13:35 -0600 Hey, Muir spelled Argghhh! wrong in today's DBD. What's up with that? And the Navy has got better things to do than worry about a second rate power that is desperately trying to assert it's still a superpower. Things like JTFHOA and other MOOTW stuff that's working toward winning the Long War by means other than warheads on foreheads. Dealing amicably with foreigners is something the USN has done for a long time(well, they've tried, the amicable isn't always so solid). So it ain't like the USN is sitting on its patoot. I wonder what the Farts and Darts set is doing? http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63181 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63181 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 18:04:28 -0600 I don't know why governments across the political spectrum would find that shocking...after all when we were there we watched incidents on West German television of East German guards shooting at defectors. And the Engineer was a Cav Scout on the border... 'Nuff said. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63176 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63176 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 16:41:49 -0600 Hey, as I've said elsewhere - gives the Air Force and Navy something to do. And gives us an idea about Russian military readiness, etc. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63161 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63161 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 11:55:13 -0600 Lex already got there.]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63157 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63157 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 11:05:15 -0600 "Russian bomber jets resume Cold War sorties" (Yes, they're Bears, not Backfires. It's Reuters. At least they got the Russian part right.) ]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63155 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/08/hi_fires_12_aug.html#comment-63155 Mon, 13 Aug 2007 10:51:54 -0600 mmmmmmm smell that?
