They shoud do the same for the male sailors

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20041017/D85PG4KG0.html

That wacky Navy of ours is at it again. They're making skirts optional for female sailors. What a concept! Now all they have to do is make them optional for the male sailors and they can get away from that pesky Village People stigma.
For those who don't know, the Navy made the mistake of hiring the Village People to record a song for their recruiting push back in the disco era. Not that the decision made them the laughinstock of the military (most in the Army would tell you they already were), but it certainly didn't enhance their image.

Oh the Humanity

A picture is worth a thousand words, this one's worth a thousand bucks.

Boy did the Yankees ever kick the bejesus out of the Sawx last night. That should help the collective self-esteem of New England. In equally important sports news, the Black Knights of the Hudson are putting together a respectable little win streak. Last night, down 28-20, the cadets went on a second half tear to win 42-35. Last week, Tielor Robinson was the hero with 5 TDs; this week it was Carlton Jones running for 225 yards and 5 TDs. This is the Bobby Ross effect exposing itself to Army alumni and the rest of the country.

Finally...

Well it looks like John Kerry finally released some evidence that he was in Cambodia. It's hard to see him, considering the darkened silhouettes, but you can see him at the front of the boat, right? If you get a chance, Club for Growth has one of the funnier anti-Kerry ads you'll see. http://www.clubforgrowth.net/

French/French Canadian, what's the difference?

In what can only be described as a massive surprise, Canadian PM Martin made sure to get his share of Oil for Food kickbacks by ensuring Jacques Chirac that Canada would not be sending troops to Iraq. Since I know very little Canadian military history, I'll just have to hope that their last battlefield victory was some time more recent than Waterloo. It's amazing that the "Coalition of the Bribed" turned out to be the countries that chose not to join the battle to free Iraq.


"My Cheese, She Stinks"

Boston Sucks

The Moose is Loose

There's no better feeling than watching 56,000 something crazed Yankee fans letting Curt Schilling know he got smoked last night. Use whatever excuse you want, but Schilling didn't walk the walk last night and he knows it.

On Brave Old Army Team...

It's about time

Indeed

Despite some problems, the Afghan elections took place today. On top of that, the Black Knights of the Hudson broke their 19 game losing streak by pounding Cincinnati 48-29. Tielor Robinson, one of Army's running backs, is an absolute Moose. He rushed for 82 yards, caught 4 passes for 111 yards and 5 TDs total. One of those catches had to be one of the best screen plays ever run, 92 yards for a score, with receiver Aaron Alexander blocking downfield for at least 30-35 yards. Outstanding work. I'll post a jubilant picture above.


Damn Right

Guess the African leader

He still looks pissed about that bombing in 1986

So here is a picture I found on Yahoo of Silvio Berlusconi and our old friend Kadhafi (sp?). The story here was about the opening of an oil pipeline between Italy and Libya. However, one has to dig deeper here and wonder if the Libyan leader is making a statement. A statement with his choice of apparel. If you take a close look at his shirt, you can see faces and pictures of the African continent. Now, the only face I've been able to make out is that of Nelson Mandela, but what are the odds that some of those pictures are of Warlords, such as the leader of Ethiopia or Aidid of Somalia (The father, not their current leader his son)? Is it possible he just likes the shirt? Sure. Is it possible that Moamer was being sly? Of Course. Obviously any conclusion will likely be out of context, but compare the sneer on Kadhafi and the smile on Silvio's face. Looks like somebody took it from behind on this deal.


Upon further review: Maybe my sight is going, but I think I spotted Saddam. Bottom row, 3rd picture from the left, right under Mandela, how ironic.

Kobe Cheesesteak? Only in Kerry Country

Nothing like this ever came from Jim's

That's right folks, that's a $100 cheesesteak. "This version of the traditional Philadelphia sandwich, made with Kobe beef, melted Taleggio cheese, shaved truffles, sauteed foie gras, caramelized onions and heirloom shaved tomatoes on a homemade brioche roll bushed with truffle butter and squirted with homemade mustard, is served with a small bottle of champagne and sells for $100 at Stephen Starr's Barclay Prime opening Tuesday. " For that kind of scratch you can get yourself roughly 16-17 cheesesteaks and a drink at Jim's on South Street. I can just see John Kerry in front of Geno's telling Philadelphia how he just loved the cheesesteak over at Barclay Prime. "Nothing says Philadelphia like the cheesesteak at Barclay Prime, I remember enjoying one in Cambodia one Christmas not too long ago..."

Fight Club Down Under?

Remember the scene in Fight Club where the baggage claim jerk tells Ed Norton that if something in a bag is vibrating they have to search the bag? But of course they never imply possession, "Instead of saying we found your dildo, we say we found a dildo"
