It was today, August 2nd, 1990. I was at work at my job, stationed at NAVCAMS WESTPAC in Guam. I answered the phone and it was my wife, who told me that Iraq had invaded Kuwait. I hung up the phone and yelled to everybody in the room, “WE’RE GOING TO WAR!”
Two wars, 9/11, think of all the things set in motion by this one eventful day. Pray that the ramifications have ended.

AlphaPatriot has something good to say about Nathan Bedford Forrest, a rather infamous character here in Memphis. Erasing the Confederacy.
He talks about Forrest, who the Left wants to delete, as a rather complex individual. Before the War of the Great Rebellion (that’s the Civil War to you Yankees) he was a slave owner. But after the war, he was a champion for Blacks rights. Read his post, it’s enlightening.

I’ve been keeping up on this, and you should to. The plan to nuke at least 7 American cities as soon as this Friday will be devastating unless it is stopped. Nuke terrorists’ favorite dates.
The after effects of such an attack will be devastating to the entire world. If even one American city goes up under a mushroom cloud, American missiles will fly. We will unleash carnage 10 fold upon the Muslim peoples of the world. I would not be surprised for the President, whomever he or she may be, to unleash the command, “kill them all.”
bin Laden has not learned from his mistakes. He toppled two buildings, we toppled two governments. He nukes 7 American cities, we will nuke 70 Muslim cities. If push comes to shove, Islam loses, because we will exterminate any followers of that religion. Exterminate with extreme prejudice.

That was an old marketing phrase back when smoking was not considered the hazard it is today. Another step has been taken with tobacco, well kind of…First smokeless cigarette to go on sale.
Both of my parents smoked, and it killed them. I hated long trips in the car because they would light up all the time and not crack the windows unless I said something.
This new device will let you get your nicotine fix without having to offend other people with your smoke. Good riddance. At least you can kill yourself without bothering anybody else. It might even be better than smoking, since you don’t get all of the carcinogens that you find in tobacco smoke.
