    diplomatic immunity

    Good thing we built that "stick" in 1941, eh? Don't think that our military is having problems due to inability, they are be handcuffed by the rules of engagement only. Look, I don't really care what others think of my beliefs, most of this is opinion anyway. You have yours based on your...

    Time to Print more "Funny Money"

    It looks as if I was wrong about Chile, I don't know where I heard that, my mistake. As to Chavez, where did that news clip come from? I thought is was real. Looked real to me. I seem to remember seeing in on broadcast news at the time. Must be getting old. I am no longer in intel and when...

    The "visiting forces" act ONLY applies to military personal, NOT civilians. I know, I have lived under both, have you? I was also covered under the Geneva Convention when in the military and have hours and hours of classes on that treaty, have you? I have seen and experienced the Statute of...

    There are two kinds of people, for the most part, passionate people and book smart people. Both are prone to mistakes in life, no more or no less than the other. Passion is based on the heart, book learning is not. While both have their place, both make mistakes, passion is more real in the...

    Canada V USA - Olympics Hockey

    Well, being that most, if not all, play in the NHL, I think it makes little difference. I would like to see the USA win, but in the end, they will all be back playing for the teams that pay them to play, most of which are located in the USA. They ARE the best in the world, but they play for...

    Rand-McNally Intelliroute TND 500

    I am not sure of the total number of stops, we have never had to input more than 4 to date. There have been a few mistakes and programming problems, no unit is perfect. Rand is working hard to fix any problems that might come up. They have an extensive network of "beta testers" that text the...

    And your real life experience with any of these treaties, either covered or not, is? Leo is fixed in reality more than you might think he is. It is only his use of terms and writing that is lacking. That often happens when passion is primary in a persons life. Relax, no harm was done. He is...

    Nope, my "trigger finger" is perfect. I do have a touch of "arthur" in my middle finger of my left hand. Both knees too. I understood what Leo was speaking of. I understood his mix up and mixing of terms. It was not hard, unless one is perfect and is not capable of understanding things...

    Rand-McNally Intelliroute TND 500

    We have been using the TND500 for a few weeks now. We run Streets and Trips at the same time and then also check it against the Road Atlas as well. So far the TND500 wins hands down. Far fewer mistakes, far more accurate and much better for trucks.

    Nope, Hollywood is not reality. How much time have you spent under the reality of any of those international treaties? I spent 3 years under the Geneva Convention, 18 months under the Statute of Forces agreement with Japan and 5 years in England with no treaty protection as all, as did my wife...

    You seem to have missed a couple of posts there RLENT. I stated earlier that Leo was mixing up DI and national strength. They are NOT the same. DI is messed up and national weakness breeds contempt. Sorry if you missed what I said. I guess it is easy to just ignore all the post. I have done it...

    EOBR "Truck Friendly" routing

    All new toys can be fun. The only things that can ruin that fun is making those toys mandatory. Either by law or a carrier requirement.

    Yeah, the DI one is tough to say the least. It requires everyone to play by the same rules. Iran proved that they do not. They have proven themselves to be scum back then and still are, as a Nation, scum today. I am sure that there are many good, trustworthy people in that country, just as here...

    I understand and agree, Leo. Just as I said about the "Cold War" it ended when we built a "bigger stick" than the Soviets could build. We did not have to use that stick. Diplomatic immunity is another issue.
