It is always wise to remain vigilant and attentive. Although there are things that just look suspicious, there are also things that are deservedly so.

Yes it was, and man, was that beast one tough truck.

Strange coincidence - my boss and I got into a 4 wheeler conversation (his wife just got a quad, so they're going quad camping this weekend) and found out he ran a 406 on a utility Right-of-way brush clearing crew when he was young - it had a huge chipper on the back, they would set it in supercrawlwe low, lock the steering, both operators would get out as the truck plodded its way up the road all by itself and feed brush into the back. He got it stuck once going after a pick-up truck that was in a mud hole halfway up the fenders - he ended up in the same mudhole, past the axles (I call it Mog Bogging!) and it had to be winched out.

Don't want to droop on the fly, or be permeable.

Except now they do. You blew their cover, Rich!!! 😜

I just sprayed some! Lol! Clearly, reading and sipping are beyond me at the moment. :-)

Rob, I am certain that he studied constitutional law
to prepare himself for a life devoted to reversing
its effects in the U.S.. if he was being prepared for
the presidency by Bill Ayers' dad, as we have heard,
he needed to study the enemy in advance. -- j

I'll bite. what does a combat sports bra have a regular sports bra lacks?

Well said, Susanne. I used to enjoy Star Wars. I guess I have to give that up now, because "the force" is mystical. I hadn't realized that I was living that contradiction until now.

Hmmm.....I can believe it has something to do with the illegal epidemic, but I have no facts. I also don’t know where else you would store a UN vehicle in transit but in a federally-secure center. Any UN property or person within our borders for legitimate reasons is most likely guaranteed protection by the federal government.

nma - so do they. :o

I believe Maph thinks it may be for a position in Iraq. I don't believe he's right on this.

Did you go for the armored model?

I have my own worries about Bob; now he says he wants a camping knife! go figure.

My real concern is the combat sports bra... I'm starting to get *really* worried about Bob...

(And yes, I have one of those in my b.o.b. as well...)

Agreed on the good natured humor. All communists do is plan, plot & deceive. This is too coincidental. Ok, perhaps they're not going to the border. Perhaps they are heading to Detroit to help out with that "crisis". Either way, I've never seen anything like this in my short lifetime. I find it disturbing.

I agree.

Maybe next time? :)

I thought drinking the coffee was multitasking. It gets more complicated as the day goes on.

Hahaha!! I think that was really funny!

If one cannot imagine the worst, then there is no way they are prepared for anything. Having done Emergency Management, you know - if you can imagine it, someone else has a plan for something worse.

Saying that, if MB was the prime chassis contractor, and the final assembly was in Texas, then yeah, they'd build them here, and ship them to wherever they need them.

My only question is this - why do they need them in a Federal (read USA) Secured Facility in Texas? I don't know what the scoop is on *that*, but it smells like last weeks still-dirty diapers... otherwise they'd be stored at a leased or purchased facility by the chassis or Final Assembly manufacturer, NOT on US Government Property under pseudo-hush-hush security.

Hell... even our Nuclear plants - the security forces of which are trained and authorized to take on any and all comers - are PRIVATELY OWNED, and they're some of the most secure facilities on the continent.

Me too... And there's a reason that, as bad as some thing are, I don't live on the Atlantic Coast... The Taggart Bridges are too... um... yeah. You know what I mean. (And to think, I almost took an awesome job in Manhattan... thank my lucky stars x10 I didn't!)
