There seem to be some issues with the air conditioner at work today.  It's usually as cold as a meat locker in here, but it's probably around 85F in here. 

Maybe I should suggest we have a team "beach party".  [:D]

And the gold and the silver (Seeing as how Beck and Hannity aren't too hot on Silver these days, the gold part is looking better on a proportional basis) that graces the soft, smooth, elegant breasts of a captured young lady; glittering and lifting with every indrawn breath; open and exposed to the ripping claws of the ...

Like that's news...

But then, the Daily Mail is always good for a round of sensationalist bleating.

You've got to love the provincial sophistry too. "Modern armies require more than just tanks." Well, yes they do, brainiac. They ALWAYS have. But they also require tanks. When you cut your tank corps by 75%, you're effectively gutting your capabilities even if modern armies need more than that.

Hi all,

Oh my... [X(]

There are 256 brigadiers and generals but just 200 Challenger II tanks, according to the figures uncovered by a former senior military intelligence officer.

Shoot, and I thought we were bad! Woof! The latest list for the US Army, as of Sept. 1, 2011, is
12 Generals
53 Lt Gens
144 MajGens
163 BrigGens
26 Cols on list, so perhaps qualify as BG (designate)
That's like 388 for the whole Army including the useless program manager swine in the Pentagon.
Ok, the Navy and USMC can add another 307, but still ...
