I just got my own USB rocket launcher :-) Awsome thing. Plug into your computer and you got a remote controlled office missile launcher with 360 degrees horizontal and 45 degree vertival rotation with a range of more than 6 meters - which gives you a coverage of 113 square meters round your workplace. You can get the gadget here: http://tinyurl.com/2qul3c Check out the video they have on the page. Cheers Marko Fando Want to start your private office arms race right now?

I think if I didn't have my hands actively engaged in typing I would have hit something. Considering I was at work, and I'm pretty sure it would have been my computer I would have hit, it's possible I would be risking a federal offense at that point. Will have an analysis up either before I go to bed tonight or when I wake first thing in the morning. Thanks Laura. Actually, the constant typing helped.

All the 'extra' nations are represented through the private contracts. You know, how low-wage labor is shipped in from other impoverished countries to do the jobs Iraqis won't do. I think Bangladesh + Pakistan + Afghanistan + etc = 36 . Do you follow me? Nevermind, this is such a mess. I felt like he was reading My Pet Goat again... I'm glad you had the fortitude to sit through this and comment KyleE, thanks. I have to keep an eye on my BP when George is on the tube. 36 nations… the math is a bit fuzzy, but I think I’ve got it.

What an insult to the collective intelligence of this country. Thirty six nations are fighting along side us? Anbar a success? I think I am going to be sick.

Moore Fri, 14 Sep 2007 01:29:42 +0000 http://commentsfromleftfield.com/2007/09/liveblogging-the-president#comment-4295 Senator, I truly hope that you and the rest of the Democrats in congress have the balls to pull this one off because you're making a whole lot of sense right about now. And that about ends it. Quick and dirty, but given my abhorence for Bush, that's how I like it. Personally, I think Reed did a great job, he didn't bandy about, he got straight to the point and communicated the concerns of the dissent clearly and easily, while Bush sought to focus primarily on TMT tactics to scare folks into finding again their support for the war in Iraq. I think Bush's speech marks a sad day in America, one in which the lies and rhetoric of the highest office in our land have grown to laughably obvious proportions. I only lament the fact that the speech had gone by so quick and I was not able to type fast enough to pull every word apart. And the shameless reading of the letter. I have lost the ability to believe he is sincere when he honors the troops, and this is why. He does not read the letter written to the NYT by seven soldiers, some of whom have already passed away a mere few weeks later. He does not read the letter of an anguished mother, confused about our roll in Iraq. No, he reads the exact letter that serves his purpose, the one that is little more than Bush's talking points. This is not to take away from the grieving parents, or their beliefs. I am more than sure that they were sincere in their words of grief, and their words of support. I find the President's cynical usage of that letter, however, a ploy to tug at the heartstrings of Americans, sick and perverse. This man is not a president. He is an abomination. Senator, I truly hope that you and the rest of the Democrats in congress have the balls to pull this one off because you’re making a whole lot of sense right about now.
