(… at least the first part) ;)

*whew* I was holding my breath

Dang, I missed it!!!!

Gotta get it home in one piece yet....then i'll celebrate

Unfortunately we are not the only country with flight plans today.

But they will come back with one less crewmember.

It's funny how squeamish we've become.

At the height of the cold war, America deemed a strike of less than 30 warheads to be not catastrophic, except locally.

Now one primitive but potent rocket has them in a spin.

I suspect that a couple of dozen stealthy cruise missiles fired from a freighter off the coast could be infinitely more devastating.

Money Pyongyang is spending on flashy displays is money not being spent on more serious weapons ( or health, social services, schools, roads, internet porn or other worthwhile things).

From what I've heard, this is just his little sales pitch...just about the only income North Korea has is selling missle tech to other rogue nations...
And the tizzy that we & other concerned nations are in is largely due to not knowing how to sanction against a nation that's already one of the world's leading shitholes (at least for those not a part of the ruling class). :shrug:

Not just missile technology, a number of other worrying martial toys (MARTIAL, NOT MARITAL!!!).

THAT'S THE PROBLEM ... WITH THEIR HEAVY ACCENT THEIR SCIENTISTS GOOFED! IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE MARITAL TOYS. :D

OF, you are good. :thumbs:

I wondered why they had a three-stage dildo. :rolleyes2

When one surge just isn't enough.
