Got done with a weekend of gaming at Genghis Con (cons being my only outlet these days). Lots of pulp games and some Cthulhu thrown in.

Ah, so you understand OPSEC.

I was being fairly serious. Strip away all the jargon and that's basically what I do. If you have any specific questions, ask away, I'll tell you if I can't answer. As far as being in a sand box, I got back in June 2008, got some good Army schoolin' and came to my new unit. I'm in command of a multi...

I plot, engage in and resource the overthrow and occupation of small nations.

Professions ARE lifestyles. They don't have to be. Some professions are, but many are just jobs you do for an extended period of time. Then you're either confusing the definitions of "profession" and "long-term job" or the profession in quesion is very light on its lifestyle asp...

paladin2019

Professons are controlled by governing bodies. The point of said body is to regulate the minimum stndards the customer can expect from a member; those who don't make the grade are prevented from practising. Different professions exercise different levels of control, different degrees of formality in...

paladin2019

Professions ARE lifestyles. That's kind of the point. How restrictive the lifestyle is and should be IS a consideration in whether you choose to pursue it. And FWIW, my profession s nowhere near as restrictive as 'Unca Joe' makes his sound. I don't even know why law enforcement should be so restrict...

Your discontent has been noted, Citizen.

sStrap your legs together and go. Personally, I have two herniated disks grinding nerves into my spine. I habitually wear 40+ lbs of equipment, armor and weapons as a job requirement. So I wake up in pain until I can stretch my hips for 30 minutes. What else am I gonna do? Good thing I love this shi...

Of course it's still racism. It's also really sad in that it reinforces that teh balck man, for example, buys into the stereotype and chooses a white avatar if he wants a white collar job. It speaks volumes about self-worth if you tie your idealized form to this. But the counter argument is what abo...

Deev, that's the way stereotypes start. I doubt any originated from wholecloth. And the brain wants consistency and looks for patterns. It helps you make judgments and makesure risk if the world behaves in a consistent manner. That's why all child-rearing and dog training manuals emphasize consisten...

I personally dislike the pinched front end of the original Chargers, preferring the more robust front ends of the GM family. MkII vs a snub-nosed .357, I guess.

I just want to play. AD&D, Cyberpunk, Warhammer, whatever.

Why, after a person has eaten asparagus, does pee smell so strongly of it the next day? Ah, this one I know. Asparagus incorporates sulfur into organic acids, and you excrete several sulfur compounds. I also know that not everyone is capable of smelling it, but if your girlfriend is capable of smel...

Depends on your definition of "used to." The 'burbs were advertised as a social good in the 50's. Only those people lived in the city. Of course, gas was about a dime a gallon, too. And then it was golf course comunities and then the yuppies got smart (or everyone emulated what they never ...

Couldn't it also be both ways? Or am I misunderstanding things? Couldn't you be a soldier who commits criminal acts? Isn't that the purpose of the Uniform Code of Military Justice? To address violations of both civilian and Military law, code and regulations? Not the same thing. The point of the va...

^And then what do you do with the now jobless construction workers? Put 'em on the dole for the rest of their lives because you told them to work themselves out of a job. Or say fuck 'em, there's nothing left for you to do?

That's sort of what Leavenworth is for, isn't it? (Assuming we are referring only to the Disciplinary Barracks) Well, no. It's to billet those military personnel whose lack of discipline rises to the level of felonies. And assuming they still have some measure of loyalty to the USA, and more than a...

(Caveat everything to follow with I haven't read this article, I just think about professional questions like how do I get gas for the tanks and how do I feed the tankers.) The biggest risk I see is to the rest of the world. The US can feed itself without oil, if need be, but that means our surplus ...

Kai, might want to check out Black and Read. They have a bit of vinyl, but I'm not sure exactly what is in ther catalog.

Any thoughts on your brand*. The description of the brand can definitely work for a ranch name.

About the corrosion thing, never had any problems on my HMMWVs, and we run 'em hard enough to tear up half-shafts on a regular occasion. (Usually 2 out of a fleet of ~40 vehicles [~160 half-shafts in total] every week or so in the field.) But I've never seen a caliper corroded and in need of replace...

paladin2019

Any practical reason for painting the calipers? Or for the etching on the large disc?

(Not that "'cause it looks fuckin' cool!" is a bad thing.)
