It has a newer IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE WARHEAD eh?
You still building them with gunpowder?
Something new with some CRACK to it, like hho gas, even better would be hoho gas and how hard would it be to add a bit of. Residue, water vapor and a lot of deaf people. Perhaps that's what the Tower Of Babel was, an explosion of that gas and rather than people speaking different the hearing was so messed up and the catch word of the day was, . . . wait for it, . . . huh? What happened to them again? (like bolded letters can overcome deafness)
You are way ahead on this page aren't you?

Nah... you really didn't. HUMMERs no doubt.... M1s... nah.

You can see every type of of Russian tank being BBQed though. THOUSANDS of flame outs on the net.



All caught on film too eh?
Yes, but the cream is in the smell, like the Island on Sunday and every BBQ in any given valley is cranked up.
Next you will be carrying tanks around in your pocket. (no pictures please)
I can get you some photo's of 'downtown' in any given city could use some tanks to finish the demolition and then the grinders won't have as much work to do and most buildings only need a gentile push so a lot of human lives could be saved by using 'remote demolition'. Russia could do it with the road building equip while Israel would have to use air drops if they were bidding on the same contract. I think a shell is cheaper than a guided missile. Artillery where 'the shell' leaves the launch platform at about 100miles an hour but it's flight path to target 10 miles away might involve about 50 actual miles of travel to get to the target and anything shot at it would not be able to fly inside it's turning radias so it could not be stopped. In the rubble contract, getting one of those through a certain window might be enough to complete the collapse. Best leave equipment like that in the hands of the professionals.
Trainloads of HE coming from former enemies and Israel could care less as Jerusalem would be taking on the role of being the boss of 3 city states would be seen as a good thing as voted on at the UN by a majority of the some 200 voting members. Pays a little less but the contract runs longer.
Belgium would make a good holding area for all the atomic warheads, Count Dracula and the usual suspects can take care of them.

Take your meds.
While I'm waiting for the 'extra dose you requested to kick in just what experience to you have with hho gas that you are now an expert?
I know why you were called 'pork chop' when you were younger, from the bones hung around your neck so the stray dogs would play with you.

How come Darth Vader or the Rebels never had laser guided lasers?
And why did the stormtroopers always set their phasers to "Miss?" Heck, why would anybody even make a phaser with a "Miss" setting?

Probably some kinda gun control thing. The Emperor must have promised that the stormtroopers would be provided with weapons that were absolutely safe.

To the enemy, anyhow.

Surprisingly yes it worked out that way, just happened to be there as the phone directed and no sooner turned the camera on and all sorts of **** started happening and youtude was automatically sent a copy.

An enemy will lead you to a dead body faster than a friend will, a very good friend even.

How about a sword that 'grows longer', the Pinocchio blade. Swords against tasers, tasers every time once you have

Opps Sorry. Almost forgot the topic again. first time I heard a tank starting I thought, "damn thing's gonna sprout wings and turn into a jet. YAY Transformers!" lol

Yay for transformers but I'm the one on drugs?I'm pretty sure acid has a shelf-life of under 40 years and 1975 was when the bad acid stopped and coke took over.

You would have fun cutting seismic line with a Cat that is big enough that the trees fall before they slow you down much, then you turn around and pile the trees to one side. That means pay attention or a treetop will go through you and stick you to the seat and that would make everybody late for supper.
Why would anybody do acid up there? The wilderness is pretty trippy by itself, no way I would spend much time out there without having one of those machines. Might as well start out as the new king of the forest or as long as the fuel lasts. Maybe some green tobacco for when the sun goes down and you are still out there with the moon and the trees combining to create scenery that will straighten your curly hairs let alone make the ones on your neck do the same.
Cats are too slow anyway to keep the mind occupied, enter a car rally on acid now that has possibilities. Probably end up coming back in a different car or some same thing. All the ones that found them joined the party and forgot to mention that nobody was lost.

Who would want to spend hours wondering if that was take the next two lefts an a right or take two next lefts you got that right? How worried you be if you had all the fuel on a heavy sleigh? Sooner or later somebody will come alone, they always do.

The Abrahms is a very capable tank, one of the best. A bit expensive but thats not engineerings fault.
Once they fire DU rounds they become contaminated themselves. That is why so many frames have never been recycled.

"Depleted uranium - the apocalypse?" was the first question asked in the introduction. Based on the above presentation and the analysis of possible consequences on man and environment, the answer is as follows:
An apocalypse caused by man as a result of the use of DU ammunition in Iraq and the Balkans is not worthy of discussion! Are there "irradiated Swiss soldiers in Kosovo?"
The answer to this second question is:

If certain minimal precautions are taken - i.e. no trespassing on tank wrecks and no long-term contact with remaining DU ammunition fragments - the health risks of a time-limited stay in a DU-contaminated area are shown to be negligibly small, especially in comparison to other risks such as mine fields, duds, snipers, etc.

Yup. I was obviously joking (see the little "lol" at the end of that sentence in my post? That's a strong hint that I was joking). But it sure didn't look like you were joking from what I read of your post. So yeah, it looks like you upped your dosage. About the only thing I may be wrong about is the type you seem to use. Your preference, rather than being LSD, would fit the pattern of mandrake or nightshade much better.

This is you just blurting out random thoughts again?

I was pointing out that you aren't very good at determining what makes me tick so don't give up your day job. Just because the emoticon is missing doesn't mean it is void of humor.
Now back to your regular programming.
