"He was given nothing but small planes and ships-fishing boats, patrol boats, that kind of thing. He kept them circling around the edges of the Persian Gulf aimlessly, driving the Navy crazy trying to keep track of them. When the Admirals finally lost patience and ordered all planes and ships to leave, van Ripen had them all attack at once. And they sank two-thirds of the US fleet."

So, those of you who know me, I'm into tech. But when it comes down to war and enemies, I know absolutely nothing, and those of you reading this are in the same boat as I am.

Fighting away with stealth bombers, night vision robotic legs, droids and robots are great it you are trying to fend off an alien invasion. But for an all out war in our world, this tech option doesn't seem to fly. It might be more about position, understanding the enemy and old fashioned strategy. Fighting an enemy with laser guided missiles is useless when the enemy sends at you 50 women and children and 3 of them have bombs strapped to them. Sure they might have nukes...Dirty little bombs they use to fire off their shoulders, while our nukes are nicely contained in lead casings with failsafes and detonators strapped to a $100million jet fighter. Seems a little unfair, until you realize the dirty little nuke probably made more of a statement.

Life I said though... I know nothing about war, how to fight it, or how it feels to stair down at someone with a gun... I am no Jack Bauer, and those that know me can attest to that.

So Finally Sony is putting out products worth buying... well, at least in Japan...

So if Bush got a c- in econ 101...He should at least know what a chart looks like... Yes our economy is in deep doo doo...

In real life, I assure you, there is no such thing as algebra.

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

- 29 have been accused of spousal abuse
- 7 have been arrested for fraud
- 19 have been accused of writing bad checks
- 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
- 3 have done time for assault
- 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
- 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
- 8 have been arrested for shoplifting
- 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits
- 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year


Can you guess which organization this is?

Give up yet?

It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.
