4/7     Chemical Ali is now Fertilizer Ali
        \_ Illusions and foul deceit and lies of the evil imperialists!  I'm
           going to laugh my ass off if there's a press conference and he
           goes off again about how the US is getting crushed, blah, blah and
           then a Humvee pulls up and some American marines get out and wave.

              \_ reference?  That sounds funny.
              \_ I'm wondering which way you think the lying was going?
                 US -> public or VC -> public or media -> public?

7/25    Friend of mine's thinking about joining the armed forces.
        He was thinking either marines or army.  I was going to say that
        marines are far more dangerous, but then I stopped and thought of
        the Three Block War vs. the Navy shelling the crap out of Iraq
        before the  marine had to storm it; is the notion reversed now?
        Does the army has a tougher job/more dangerous job than the marines

           that poorer people can't afford to.  dunno what happened to tjb.
           \_ I challenge you the concept of "expensive." Silicon Valley
              is already pretty expensive.

4/25    What the Marines really think about kids in Afghanistan

        \_ I don't think this is a big deal.  Grunts in the Marines
           will not be Ivy League educated investment bankers.
           As long as they don't give into institutionalizing torture
           on advice from the CIA, I'm ok with them.
