  1. There was a very famous, disastrous mounted charge against a group of tanks that is viewed as the true end to horseback combat during WWI, although I cannot remember the name of the specific battle. IIRC, horseback cavalry charges took place in WWII with the Poles in a last ditch effort against the German invasion. It didnt work out so good then either.
  2. I caught that too and it was pretty cool. I even went so far as to set up my telescope in my living room but I couldnt see Saturn or its moon though.
  3. Bourbon whiskey (JD) is my choice of poison too although I do mix it with coke. On topic, I just had a cup of double strength Columbian coffee.
  4. ^Thats exactly one of the things I hate about 3e. You shouldnt be able to be good at everything.
  5. I voted; Lightsaber, Covenant Carbine and Halo ring fleet. I dont really know what the last two are but they sound boss.
  6. I think Ive read one of the "Oceanic 6" will be one of the people on the show "Survivor".
  7. Im not following you Wals. IMO, mental conditions should be taken into consideration when doing a background check on people to determine their eligibility to buy a gun. Are you saying it shouldnt?
  8. What the heck does that mean? An hour and 18 minutes?
  9. Because, stupidly IMO, medical information is so private in the U.S. nobody can get it and that information isnt entered into any databases normally used to check a persons background.
  10. Its a man, baby.
  11. Good luck with that. If the passage of 2000 years hasnt done it, nothing will. Well, Muhammad was born in 570 CE, so your numbers are a bit off. You might claim that 500 years is no big deal, but the Catholic church wasn't exactly a fountain of comedy when it was 1500 years old. Yeah, I was just shooting from the hip. I figured Muhammad was probably around the same time as Jesus and since we are 2008 years after the death of Jesus...you see where this is going. Whats "CE" mean? Same as "BC"? So you're saying that Islam just needs a few more centuries to get their act together? I ask because I feel youve drawn a very tenuous link between how long somethings been around and how they act. It could easily be argued that atrocities commited by the catholic church were as much a product of the times (1500 AD) then they were just because the church was only 1500 years old.
  12. Good luck with that. If the passage of 2000 years hasnt done it, nothing will.
  13. ^Thats messed up.
  14. Lol, same here. Whenever American Idol, Extreme Home Makeover or Biggest Loser come on, I dart off to go play WoW.
  15. Welcome to the forum. If IWD2 is new to you, you should probably also look for the Baldur's Gate series, which are fantastic.
  16. ^Why are you against it?
  17. Heh, I know. It was an obviously failed joke with you being from AU, where I believe dingo's live, and a picture of your dog "eated ur baby" and that movie from AU where a dingo ate a womans baby. Yeah, it wasnt worth it.
  18. Is that a Dingo?
  19. I liked this reaction so much I thought I'd quote it rather than Sand. Hehe, it had me literally lol-ing too but all credit must go to the esteemed Xard who I yoinked it from.
  20. Two words: Punji Trap.
  21. Yeah, that was pretty wild. Was the symbol on the collar that of a specific station or the symbol for the company?
  22. I think a couple of things in your statement are problematic. 1) We are going full tilt in Iraq. Unless your idea of full tilt is razing a country to the ground ala WWII, which I agree is hight effective, however thats not supported in todays day and age. 2) How exactly would we ensure they "never get in"? Glacing at a map reveal thousands of miles of borders North and South, not even considering sea access.
  23. Whats that one they play in Korea until they drop dead at the table? Its set in space and a part 2 is coming out soon (this year?). EDIT: Just remembered; Starcraft.
  24. Is that a joke? They already used retarded kids.... Well, yeah, it was a joke. Wasnt there just a thread about them using Downs Syndrom women in a bombing? So I combined that with kids. See what I did there?
