#1 Awesome - killer production! Thx, Mrs D!

I have this funny feeling that this would (should) scare the living shit out of anyone who's stupid enough to wear a Kick Me sign. The wrong end of an M1A2? Right, yewbetcha... you can only make that mistake once. Next!

I have to admit, I like the connotations of Sparta that these pieces, getting a good close-up view of our military, invoke in me. Hell, I don't know why I said it that way. I am happy and proud to say that I like the... Yeah, that's closer to home. These people just rock.

#4 Or if they had the good sense to offer the DL without forcing a Bit Torrent client to get it.

I have it on an FTP, but I won't post it openly on RB. If anyone wants access without the Bit Torrent Bullshit, which did not DL any faster than a straight DL, BTW, we can prolly hook up via someone I trust who's willing to pass along the FTP login info. Post a request on this thread and we'll see if some middleman will handle it for me.

#5 If you don't know, some of these guys got to Germany today -- 20th.. RedSix6 did.

Also, if you haven't read all his writings about the Battle of Fallujah -- well, get a cold one, and settle back. These guys are incredible -- from the sleeping on their tanks the night before, to their finds of weapons.

Also -- RedSix got a REAL Siver Star!

#7 Bittorerent is SLOWER. it's supposed to be that way by spreading the load. There is no server except for the seed. I have downloaded my last 2 copies of Mandrake Linux that way (multi CD.) If you want to wait you can get them via FTP or HTML download that is weeks after the release to Mandrake Club members like. Bitorrent is a cheap way to distribue files by sharing bandwidth. It's not the faster or best.

I am a sponger anyway. I don't open any ports in my firewwall to allow anyone to get data from.
