Try to use some logic then and see how it works out for you. If you do try ( and it does kick in for you ) then you will notice that my response had nothing to do with the current situation in Ukraine but rather was directed at a study cited in another post claiming that standing up to...

Yes , we like to bring up Korea , Germany and Japan as often as we can but let’s not forget about Vietnam, Haiti, Grenada, Cuba, Somalia, Lebanon, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya , Panama … we made or at least attempted to make “them” pay very heavy price at one time or another in all of these...

Why are you so eager to fight Russia in the first place ? They are not invading Poland or Germany but rather trying to recover ( rightfully or not , I don’t really give a crap ) a remote piece of land that has no meaning to anyone except locals and has been part of various squabbles for...

What geopolitical rival ? We are outspending Russia 12 to 1 in terms of military spending and their only claim to parity is their nukes which, thankfully, are not a factor here.

IPad Mini is not that small - it is actually significantly bigger than Garmin Aera …

You are thinking about it wrong - you did not save 50k ….you had spend whatever you had to spend on Aviation Tax Group fee to avoid stupid made up tax that you should not be paying in the first place. Thinking how much useless “commerce” and wasted effort all these idiotic rules generate -...

I am not going to tell you anything - your are clearly missing my point so let’s just forget about it …

No, when a politician in charge here in my state (IL) says that “science” requires us to do X and then 15 minutes away in Indiana another high ranking politician says that “science” requires them to do something very different and both of them claim to follow best available medical information...
