    Lots of great reading material for tomorrow, for those times you just have to get away from your liberal relatives or kill them.
    Happy Thanksgiving, Wombat!

    Apropos of nothing, I’m going to say that we should treat Russia like a drunk uncle with a concealed weapons permit for nuclear ICBMs. They’re at the point where they just send someone home for the day if he’s too drunk to work. Think about what that level of boozing does to brains; we’re dealing with an alcoholic nation with nukes.

    The big question is just what are the rules of engagement for the Mo National Guard? Then again if a small unarmed female Mgr. of a Pizza shop can hold off two thugs maybe the sight of a armed soldier would cause them to shite their pants.
