I'm obviously the only one who can't figure it out

PW for fortress has changed or something... wouldn't let me in.  I figured it was just dead so it was closed

Dead huh?  A guy leaves the civilized world for a few months and everything goes to hell in a handbasket.

Well, I'm back.  Been a little out of touch the past few months because of a military thing, but I'm all better and a civilian again.  What's been going on?

Armstrong may lose the lead that he just gained during the flat stages.  These are better sections for the sprinters, but he will catch up during the mountain stages.  He is a machine.  He was winning the Tour before he lost a nut, and he will keep doing so.  five of his team are in the top seven.  I think that says alot for the training that they do and has a little less to do with some purported extra hormone.  People just get upset when someone keeps beating them over and over again.  There were even some people on the tour that wanted to have a testicle removed for the "advantage".  I say they should go for it, and see what there wife thinks.  A lack of testosterone will cause breasts to start forming.  

exactly, if you have someone that controls your economy it is best not to make enemies with them

The "recession" after the war is truly not a recession.  They generally only last for a few weeks up to about 90 days.  That is very mild in today's fast paced economy.  I would never doubt the gfact that the US got into the war for the wrong reasons, but you are mistaken in the fact that the US controls oil output for the country while occupying.  Iraq is still a member of OPEC (organization of the petroleum exporting countries), and OPEC decides how much oil can enter the world market.  Even if Iraq tried to flood the market with oil, the rest of OPEC would just cut production.  I grew up in the Texas oil industry and know all about that stuff, plus my military experience lends to my knowledge of Iraqi policy.

First off, Hitler killed millions of people.  The exact total can never be known.  There were scores of people murdered and disposed of.  Hitler made the exact same mistake Napoleon made by trying to invade Russia in the Winter.  His supplies were too far behind the troops because of his rapid expansion, and the Russians were burning fields and villages so that nothing was left behind for the Germans.  With the Germans wearing summer uniforms, beign inadequately supplied, and just outmanned they never stood a chance.      After the end of World War II, The united States and Russia contolled Europe.  The United States pulled out but there were millions of surviving Jews flocking to the US.  Because of this they created Israel in 1954 as the "New Jewish Homeland".  That is why the Israeli Air Force, flies US planes and uses US weapons and training.  One litle tidbit of information is the fact that France sold a nuclear reactor and enrichment facility to Iraq.  This has been some time ago, but as soon as construction was complete Israel destroyed it.  Those Weapons of Mass destrcution would have existed had that not happened.  I feel the war on terror was simply a ruse for President Bush to finish the war that his father had started a decade before.  He was formulating a military strategy for going into Iraq before the September 11 bombing.  There is no oil agenda.  OPEC controls the world oil market, and there is no way that the US could ever take that oil.  Now war is always good for the economy, and I think that was one of the reasons.  The world was in a recession and there is nothing like a good war to boost the economy.

Sorry for the long post but I just wanted to make sure everyone knew what the facts were.  

It is very humorous in a sick and sadistic way.  I mean, could it really be possible to offend any more people with one picture and caption?  I doubt it.

P.S.  I think it is great...  get you some

You can all call me whatever you want so long as you call me when there is a party.

it all sounds a bit fishy if you ask me (no offense matt).  I think everyone is just bailing out of the sinking ship and we just scattered here.  I like DT... but I would also like that invite.  

I was gonna see... if it ain't to much trouble... please if I may... get an invite into TGA  

Maaya you are so analytical.  I would like to see gnomes.  Not your standard variety garden gnome, but the little miniature gnomes.  Defense would be tough, because they are hard to hit.  They also move really fast, kinda like a leprechaun.  Offense would have to suffer though, because they are so tiny.  hmmm... just a thought.

that brings back alot of memories.  I like the phone a friend option.  If you really don't want a mass attack but would like to see vengence, I just call up a friend and have them attack.  Then in a round about way, my friend gets my gold.  It's good for me.  

Crash because I used to race cars, and had a season that I went through 6 cars.  2950 was the price of my first race car.
