Israel has the Arrow system for anti-ballistic missile defense.

Not surprising. I work at a San Diego restaurant that is a local institution coming up on it’s 50th anniversary. Today we had at least a couple hundred guests in Steelers jerseys and exactly two people in Chargers regalia. The disproportion of away-to-home fans is normal around here, but I’ve never seen it to this…

This is exactly like pissing into a grease fire. Presumably the operation was “leaked” by an anonymous “U.S. official” as a public exhibition in the escalating brinksmanship with Russia.

Fucking stupid. Think about it. Trump would never employ necromancy to reanimate Hitler. Trump’s ego is matched by Hitler’s alone, and Hitler achieved everything Trump cannot.

It could be argued that Putin appears to be trying to make an incident of some sort occur. If it comes to point where any logical person would come to that conclusion, that a Cold War-like incident is part of the Putin’s plan, then we are in for a much rockier road than ever imagined.

With 30 years of hindsight since the Afghanistan boondoggle, why haven’t they ever seriously invested in upgrading their choppers’ countermeasures? They’re dumping cash they haven’t got into modernizing their fixed-wing fleet for some unforeseeable symmetrical conflict, while leaving their gunships vulnerable to…

It is not common knowledge. I am basing this on the generally confused reaction of the forty or so people at the bar where I was when this play happened. Calvin Johnson was also involved, so I didn’t dare venture to guess.

Whoa, BC3K. Totally forgot about that. Selective amnesia, maybe. What ever happened to that fuckin’ kook? *google google* Oh...wha........fuck’s sake. Death, taxes and Derek Smart, man.

Why is Snoop a Steelers fan? Now I don’t understand anything.

Maybe it will take a F-22 pilot loitering at close to 60,000 feet above central Syria to suddenly turn off their “low-probability of intercept” radar mode and actively paint a Flanker with radar from over a hundred miles away, just to go electromagnetically silent again and disappear, to remind Russia who and what…

I don’t suppose it’s technically inaccurate, but I am curious as to how Schilling agrees that the Civil War righted anything (presumably he’s a fan of the losing side).

In a pinch, one F-4 with a single functioning engine can actually keep itself and a second, powerless Phantom airborne for about a hundred miles, as demonstrated by the infamous “Pardo Push”. In this case, Alexander’s F-4 was initially laden with a heavy external load, in addition to the oil leak and hydraulic failure.

Perkins may or may not have a brother, but “lanky” obviously clears him in particular of any wrongdoing.

I enjoyed the fourth Rambo more than I probably should have. Especially the closing scene, which is a far-too-precise recreation of First Blood’s opening scene. Johnny returns to Rambo Ranch 30 years later, demons exorcised, same music playing...somehow, he’s acquired a spiffy new set of ‘Nam-era OD fatigues, duffel…

I’m not a Seahawks fan, but I love how their players have taken to breaking the media. Okay, Sherman pimps some garbage headphones, whatever. But they’ve started doing this thing where they use their mandatory podium time to say whatever the fuck they please, and exploit their household-nameness to force fresh air…

I’m honestly not sure whether PC Principal would fuck up Bennett or Sherman first. Obviously they’re both in detention.

Dirtbikes and ATVs are prohibited in urban areas for several reasons, all of them rather obvious matters of common sense. Whether a local community is comfortable with the outright dismissal of those laws doesn’t make it any more legal or less stupid. Riders who stunt around in heavily populated cities, and the…

I’m not sure NFL football lends itself well to that style of videogame. Rocket League is fun because all players are equally engaged (OR SHOULD BE) at all times. It’s relentless, breakneck action. An NFL lineman, on the other hand, might average four or five seconds of meaningful activity on a typical play, followed…

“Iman” is traditionally a female name. It’s the father’s parents you ought to be joking about.
