Current Music: London After Midnight - Where Good Girls Go to Die (Remix)
And while you're buying me Canadian recon hardware for my birthday next month, I need a BV206 troop transport to move my secret force of crack ninja schoolgirls into position in Israel. If I paint it black with the SquidForce logo on the side, I should be set, right?

Once politics has failed and shooting has started, the time for half-measures is over. The goal then is to kill people and break things as quickly and efficiently as possible, which calls for a highly-trained, high-morale force doing what it's trained to do, which is not ruminating on the fragility of human life or hugging a child with nuclear arms. It's a terrible thing that people have to die, but when it becomes inevitable, then do it as best you can. To do otherwise is to prolong the conflict, create unnecessary risk, and quite possibly end up with more bodies, albeit ones brought to that mortal state with less jubilation.

I don't necessarily agree with everything in here, but damn, he can turn a phrase.

OK, I admit, I like to poke at Canadians with the best of them (damnit, its cold up there), but even I'm reasonable, and frankly, Canadian citizens, (as opposed to Canadian politicians, or States politicians) are pretty keen, by and large, and they are gifted with hot chickage.

And snipers, apparently.

People covering the protestors of the current chaos in the Middle East should probably twig to the fact that there are a goodly number of Canadian soldiers out there, and they're kicking as much ass, if not moreso, than the US troops ... and typically at the same time, side by side. An appreciable chunk of the Canadian population (like this guy) are even proud of their skill, their honour, and the fact they can put big holes in bigger targets with astounding accuracy.

They won the War of 1812, too. But, uh, we let 'em. Right. Sure.

[Bruce] Oh, Alex, I forgot to tell you that you featured prominently in a dream of mine.

[Squid] I'm suddenly vaguely concerned.

[Bruce] I was listening to streaming audio coverage of the Origins Awards. Adventure won. Since neither Bates nor I could be there, you made an acceptance speech on our behalf, which consisted entirely of playing a rubber-chicken like bagpipes. This was such a hit that all acceptances will be required to be musical next year.

[Squid] Very few people dream about having sex with me. This is a good thing.

As disturbing and funny as this idea from GameSpy is, I actually have the feeling that not only is it workable, it might actually be more fun than Dark Ages of Camelot or EverCrack.
