Yes. The actual first military incursion was as described above. It was a variation of the Warsaw Pact exercises diverting into Czechoslovakia in 1968 to remove Dubcek and in 1959 to crush the Hungarian Revolution. The Afghan government at the time was a minority government which didn't start by declaring a, "People's…

Let's not forget that the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan started with, "Aeroflot," flights diverting from their flight paths and paratroopers hitting the ground shortly thereafter. A young KGB officer named Putin would certainly remember that from the playbook.

The only proper response to that is to pick up the $20 and say, "obviously, you are. Thanks."

Isn't it all about the money? Aren't such gatherings all about how to gather more money? Would this group actually bring in someone to talk about collaborative business ownership, living simply, or mindful meditative practices? No. Our society values those who gather the largest pile of stuff, even if they destroy the…

And, divorce proceedings to get free from this whiny, entitled boy-child in 3, 2, 1 ...

In the 70s in language school a woman who owned a Z600 got sent to Germany after graduation and she just left it in the parking lot. It took about three months before someone started asking about who it belonged to. She bought it used, drove it hard, and disposed of it. Probably got her $300-400 out of it.

How about including pics and short reportage from readers doing actual rides and runs? Sure, there will be lots of shots of Left Coast/Hidden Coast, Hwy 1, but there's a lot of world to be seen on two wheels and people are taking pictures and video of it all the time. Best local roads, unknown gems, "secret," bars,…

CP. No more than $1000. This can become a sweet neo-hippie van with more than a little bit of work, including installing a low-profile A/C unit on the roof to make up for the lack of ventilation, refreshing the V-8, and whatever interior and exterior touches you want for about another $2-3K.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. At least she didn't Bobbit him.

It has been my practice for a long while to not drink from any container which either hasn't been opened in my presence or filled in my presence. A random cup sitting on a table or desk is not a safe choice for drinking. A job interview may be a, "safe place," but not everyone's idea of safe is the same.

Apples and oranges. The Fourtwo is a city car. If you quit expecting it to do anything other than be an excellent car on city streets with great gas mileage, easy parking in tight spaces, carrying yourself and sometimes one other person where you have to around town and enough groceries for one or two people, you'll…

Flagstaff isn't in the desert. Geography. Try some.

"Coffee is the drink of the friends of God." - Sheikh Anseri, 1572

"This is a house built over ..." The title makes the claim of a built house. It's not. It's a design.

Why, oh, why do too many stories about designs or from designers claim the building's already been built? This is not a house built anywhere, it's pictures of a house.
