But let me guess that they say YES to MarAd’s begging for $100M for KP!

Now answer which is more fundamentally critical to our nation’s economy?

Unbelievable…

You’d better believe that if the GPS industry hired more former generals and admirals you wouldn’t be able to see the stars for all the little GPS sats blocking the view.

And, silly sailor, since when did the nation’s economy or security trump military, industrial, and congressional corruption?

I fear I am about to detonate again…

and oh how I hate to detonate!

I just want to know how you manage to post photos. I’d like to post a photo of an awesome looking Army surplus 6X6 in the parking lot outside my office. It would be a hoot to drive to the scene of your detonation.

just like this:

type and insert the url of the photo you want to post between those. If you only have the photo on your harddrive, post it to Flickr or anyother photo hosting site first then use the url from there. That’s what I do.

Now, tell me about this 6x6…is it a deuce or bigger?

A good time to take this over from the government and make it a pay service and make BILLIONS. I will give them $20,000,000 for the GPS system, lock, stock and barrel. I would run it with civilians just like Booz Hamiliton runs the NSA except we would not give away government secrets and would just kill our all former employees and avoid embarassing disclosures…

Who is with me?
