Um,
I am pretty sure I have met a few genuises in my life and I can conclude that you'll have to lump me into the insane category.
I relish this forum however because there are so many floating about.
My point is (fukk now you've given me a complex)...my point..hmm..
What the fukk were we talking about...
Well, I went to the site you posted. I glanced over the summary of "Rumsfeld's War". Take a look at what the show entails.
Some "current and former" officers...think (I doubt it)
Demoralized... (hmmm) talk to some Nazi WWII vets about being demoralized.
The Army is broken...hmmm...when was it not broken..
They have no, and I stress, no idea what the fukk they are talking about.
I know it is not a statistic but I have met some reporters in my time. I once met a wonderful little man from a Buffalo paper. Upon visiting the frontlines he was shocked that there was Death and carnage. When I pointed out that he was covering a war he suddenly had that look..."oh yeah"..LMAO...
I am sure there are many great reporters. I have yet to meet one that wasn't a total idiot. But calibrating their intellect against my own may not be a valid test since I have my moments as well.
My point is that I wish you would think this shtuff over a little more and not buy into the sophmoric infantile press bullshit.
And now....Gips!
122cm x244cm is 4 feet by 8 feet btw.
Why is that?
The Germans changed theirs...probably for national pride to 125cm x 3m.
But they are still 24" on center otherwise they would have made it 2m or 150cm.
Your plumbing fixtures are from American standards as well.
So my Danish,
Looking beyond Bush and what some Washington "insider" has to fume about:
Cold War ends...
Humanity advances?
Well....not quite. We (the West) still fail to implement "The Plan" competently and peacefully.
But it is only a matter of time.
Interesting that you would call attention to Humvees. That's a sensational comment.
A little less sensational is the the fact that Iraq is being rebuilt or built depending on your reference point. By the same clan that brought you the 4x8 sheet of plywood that European retailers are so proud to sell.
Lemme nough
Your sappy and insane friend in the Fatherland.

Hi Tik,,
yup,, It's me ,your nutty pal from the rust belt :-}.
I love ya man. I think your funny,pretty darn smart and I can tell that your a nice guy.. This is no BS,From reading your stuff, I think you have a good heart.. I'm saying this cause it's true and I don't want you to think I'm just tryin' to bate you into some unwindable argument..
I think PBS does a better job than most everyone else trying to bring clarity to the biggest issues ,not only in the States but, They do a better job reporting world events than anyone else.
Another group I like to read is the christian Science Monitor. They do great reporting also..
I think there has been a tendency for folks to look at what used to be normal,moderate thinking and label it "Left wing liberalism". This is to bad but I do think it's true..
When it comes to American Broadcast news, I really don't like any of them much but, CNN does more "Reporting" than the other two big ones. Most folks think they are a left wing reporting agency. I just don't see this...
My two cents..
Hey, Do you ever see the name Greilick over there? We come from the black forest. Austrian is really my blood line but many of us ended up all over Germany..
We, {Rare Earth} are working on a new record and when its done, we will try to come see you folks over there and play some music.. This would be my first trip across the big pond and I'm pretty damn excited..
Ivan............
