Quote"This is a Russian warship. I propose you lay down arms and surrender to avoid bloodshed & unnecessary victims. Otherwise, you'll be bombed."

Zmiinyi defenders: "Russian warship, go fuck yourself."

QuoteAs democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Anchor Spanker passed me a book at a meet up you might want to take a look at: Makers of Modern Strategy.

Book weighs as much as a car battery.

Heh, I was going through my books in storage the other day, and I came across one written in the early 1930s on sea power by some admiral. I thought "this will be an interesting curiousity someday" and put it in a box for storage rather than donation. Can't remember the title though. If I remember, I'll check on it tonight.
