.ROD WROTE: "................................................. .......deep breaths .................I really hope your joking Eric ??? We're talking about things that could melt your mother into her shoes right in front of your eyes. Not a Sat afternoon movie on DVD Eric ... for real dude ... for reeeeeeal.
A bag of radioactive waste dredged up from some old reactor somewhere duct taped to another bag of explosives. Then detonated couple thousand feet up in a nice breeze, somewhere close to Eric's home town, and poof your hands are swollen so badly your skin is splitting like an over ripe watermelon .... no way to open that beer ? Even if you managed to get that beer open Eric, you'd be way to busy trying to dig that huge swollen tongue out of the way enough to get another breath, to even think about taking a sip of that beer.
One of the lessons i learned in a silly little war long ago and far away is, the ones paying no attention to things going on around them, are always the first to go !
I personally would not be the least bit surprised that there are several of those bags of radioactive waste, or anthrax spores, or viles of Small Pox virus, already here. Maybe only a mile or two up the road from you !
What i'm trying to say, albeit in a very graphic way is ... you better give a rat's A** !!....."

Oh Man!..that right there is why I love you guys....HOLY CRAP..I was laughing so hard. And not because of the lightness of the subject, but your delivery, Rod, deserves a comedy routine in your name.

As bad as I may have came across...This is my point to the discussions we are having.....I personally care very much about the historical significance of the conflicts we have been in. Most of us can agree that what we have not learned from our history, we are doomed to repeat. Unfortunately, time and new generations lose respect for the significance of the historical precedents set during war/conflicts and how they affect our future.

I am scared of the situation with North Korea more than the issue with Iraq. However, burning oil fields, nuclear detonations/exposure and biological weapons would create repercussions in life, economic stability and have environmental impacts to where it would affect every one of our lives.

I can only hope and pray that this will not play out, but if history is on track to pinpoint the future... We have arrived, Hammer's New Year's "predictions" will come true, but unfortunately, he won't be able to collect his fame because his face will be melting off!..... LOL

Love,

Jenn
