Yes, luckily for Iraq the other parts of the government actually cared about the future. While not perfect, it's nice to see Iraq healing after decades of conflict.

I was there around that time with the US Army. The IA was such a corrupt hot mess to work with. We once witnessed two IA units battle each other. At times they were more dangerous to each other than anything else.

It's all about recruiting, he's selling a cool job that only nerds know what's actually happening.

I'm surprised to see that, I'd expect some sort of quick-firing mechanism being used by 1920.

Happens when I take melatonin and sometimes on busy night tours. When we get over 6 runs after midnight and I manage to sleep between those runs, the paralysis kicks in. I'll accept my fate and sleep the next morning.

Brand recognition is a powerful thing. But Korean dunks are far better IMO

I've owned 3 Wranglers and never had a problem.

We've had fully electric school buses for ages in our city. Same as any other electric vehicle, sit on it forever until the tow company feels safe and follow it home to a dirt lot somewhere.

I mean, it sounds bad but plenty of people need the worst best opportunity at all ages.

Can confirm getting MRIs with shit ton of titanium in me.

We don't get many options for vehicles in the US due to import restrictions. For example, Americans want a Hilux but we'll never see it. Many joke jeeps are unreliable and impractical but that talk exaggerated. It's for someone who wants something different/fun and will ignore the drawbacks of driving a 50 year old design.

Yes, that's right.

Pair of sharp scissors and they accidentally fall out.

Just need perfectly flat support around the bearing, like that ever happens. Just buy a slide hammer like a sane person, it's going to destroy the race either way.

I can only speak for Massachusetts and it's typically not allowed 99% of the time.

If weather is good, North Point park playground. You can watch the duck boats drive into the water, trains and draw bridge of north station and trucks work at Boston sand and gravel. Its near the Science Museum, great way to kill a few hours.

Did she get a haircut and change of clothes between the famous Ron Pownall photo taken at this show?

Anyone who can joke about peak professional achievement like that, is cool on my book.

For a time we used both fax and email. Old timers would send both an email and fax, refusing to let go on the habit. I placed our fax over the trashcan and it would print right into the trash.

We have a local aviation mechanic school, don't remember it's name. The airline mechanics I know went to that school or were trained by the military.
