With plenty of roots too. Supposedly everybody has gone broke and wouldn't you know an election is just around the corner? Are you broke? Is the guy on the other side of the yawn broke? Do you fellas know how much JACK we shell out to planet screwball each year? America is not broke, but planet dope is. Is that our fault? Hell no! We've been taking care of almost every nation ( including China and India ) since WW2! Give me a break! Turn off the the NEWS with it's little theme music to go with each little saga, go out back and watch the Sun set. Cool

Oaks are members of the beech family, Fagaceae, and are long-lived trees which grow relatively slowly, at least in their initial years. Both pedunculate and sessile oak are large trees, reaching up to 40 metres in height. However, because of its more north-westerly distribution and ability to grow on higher ground, sessile oak is more usually only up to 30 metres tall in Scotland. Trees of both species regularly live to be 500 years old, and individuals of 1,000 years old are known, although in some cases that age has been achieved by coppicing them over long periods of time.

You guys are just f***g idiots. You have to do it right like I did. You have to use the government and get away with it. I also have all kinds of benefits and I had the right MOS doing paperwork for you losers in my army time. I work now as a civilian food supervisor in Germany and I feel sorry for your asses when I hear crap like the government doesenough. It does not! I think the Iraq war and Bush are a ****ing fraud to all americans. Lets get our weapons together and kill all the fu***ng politicians in the white hose including McCain that mother f***r!!!

Gee, must be a record.. two posts and we already know you're an a**hole...

Thanks for the ' intel' - not good with persec, obviously, for a military guy..

have location and occupation and now just need to let a few friends know and you'll get a free ' attitude adjustment' as well...messing with ' friends' dollies while they're out playing in the sand and such..doesn't really go down all that well in some quarters..not 'supportive' of the troops and their welfare/wellbeing..

trust that your benefits plan covers whiplash, as you're likely to spend some time looking over your shoulder a lot. Best to up the 'accident ' payout on the policy, too..

Hear that the cafeteria in Landsthul serves a real good jello...

You're looking at a loong stint in the brig for terroristic threats like that you SOB.

Somebody ought to trace your IP addy and see to it the CID/AG/JAG locks you up with all the other turncoats.

You should be ashamed and court marshalled.

jeeze what a dishonor to our Service men and women. Anyone serving in Uniform.

I'm blocking your posts first time I've ever done that as I feel freedom of speech is a privlige and anyone can sound off on anything
but you're vile and evil and I've had enough.

Gmartinez, I believe you are a story teller with nothing behind it. All this women stuff in Graf, Iraq, government job, your public language and the like tells me that you have a personal problem. Furthermore, I don't believe your avatar, it is fake. You are one of the guys that steal our honor.

I am with you on this jerk and he is blocked, think he should be banned for spouting threats like he did.


Count it the greatest sin to prefer life to honor, and for the sake of living to lose what makes it worth living.

No use trying to suck up now, marty.. to late.

calls have been made.. the only thing I can do is arrange for a gurney at Landstuhl that doesn't have a wonky wheel..

and, you won't ingratiate yourself with this lot by flogging swampland on the Rhine, either...

next time you might want to engage brain first....
