    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    Or you could go Zelensky's route and just cancel them.

    Quotes and Jokes

    Hitler cat reminded me of the Hitler tea kettle that was recalled a few years back. I may have heard from anonymous sources it is Putin's favorite kitchen appliance.

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    I agree with your statement that militias played a role in suppressing potential slave insurrections. Historically, one of the necessary roles of militias was to suppress internal unrest. But I think your implication about time and state's requirements before ratification is not completely...

    **** DONE: GB-54 1:48 SBD-3 - Pacific Theater

    Come on now guys, this one's easy peasy. All you need is some 3-in-1 oil, some gauze pads, about 10 quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone. No, no make that Quaker State, and of course.... ball bearings.

    What Is The Last Movie/Show You Saw?

    Finished first part of season 4 of Stranger Things last night with the family. We'll probably start Obi-Wan Kenobi tonight. On my own, I got up to date with The Secrets of Skinwalker Ranch.

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    This "betrayal" as the paper puts it will become more widespread as the West and the globe moves closer to stagflation - recession with high inflation. Anybody who lived through the 1970s will remember, and if you don't or did not, Google it.

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    I don't think a bust is big enough for that guy's ego. Maybe replacing the largest onion dome at St. Basil's with a giant Putin-head would suffice for him. :lol:

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    Agree with both of you. Ideology is irrelevant to this guy. I think he is just after power and the self-aggrandizement that it creates. I image a little Putin in the old Soviet days looking at the massive banners with Lenin and Stalin's faces on them, and thinking I want to be up there some day

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    I am sorry but I have to completely disagree with your analogy. Tampons are not useless.

    I read somewhere a long time ago, not this forum (actually forums did not exist at the time), that a guy made his own "clear" colors buy mixing regular Tamiya colors with Flat Base (X-21). I suspect you could use Flat Clear (XF-86) or Clear (X-22) as well depending on your preference. I also...

    US guarantees Taiwan security. Now what?

    Ambiguity restored... that's all I'll say. After Biden's Taiwan remarks make waves, Austin reiterates US policy hasn't changed - Breaking Defense

    I believe LBJ meddled in Vietnam planning as well, but to lesser extent.

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    I understand it all completely, I just believe that the situation of paying both combatants in a war is lunacy that is a direct result of Europe's misguided energy policy and the habit of appeasing Putin, which has become ingrained in government policy over the past 15 or so years.

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    I think this proves that despite the bloviating by western politicians of standing with Ukraine and doing "whatever it takes" and "doing everything possible," in reality, they care more about their own problems and issues, and asses, and really don't give a shit about Ukraine. Remember, these...
