Targets of Opportunityblog advertising is good for you Credo"Sign on, young man, and sail with me. The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our job is to keep her free. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”--General Sir Charles Napier "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Amazon AssociateFor the Effort!Winnar!

I’ll be darned, you *can* push on a rope.
Here’s a YouTube video all of you need to watch. Just stay with it until it gets rolling, because there’s stupid and then …. there’s ARMY stupid.

Might have been taken after the “launch” of the first guy who failed to employ a static probe and accomplished that mission for no2 slingloader…
Oh, so THAT is what flight line is used for . . .

I like the “Army Strong” slogan a lot, but that’s a great send up of it.
He’s strong to the finish
’cause he eats his spinach
He’s Popeye the Sailor Man

Cap’n,
Just how does he balance that bird on the tip of the pole?
“Hey Shipwreck” is a nice set of cartoons created by some guy in the sub force. One of them compares commercials for the different services. “Hmmm, Army strong! Army have tanks, Army Strong.” Check it out, there are 14 small episodes and those in the Navy will get alot of inside humor.
It’s now adorning my wall here at work:)
You sure he’s not preventing it from floating away?
ASM2826, Finally got to see the video.
Boy oh boy, is that Army stoopid. Prolly the Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard, too.
I’m glad that our armed forces are as stoopid as they are — too bad our politicians aren’t just as stoopid. It would be a marked increase in IQ, methinks.
\sarc off
PS — I love the magic-ness of that sailor making the rope so stiff and strong — it’s cool, it is!
