Man, the cost of Tobacco use is going up drastically again. I can’t imagine paying this much to continue smoking. I know how hooked I was when I smoked and when I think about it, there are a lot of people who won’t be fazed by this cost hike. I used to have a friend that rolled his own a lot. Yeah, I’m talking about tobacco. haha.

Army Frowns

I ran across this article from the British press. Just another interesting google thing. That’s the fort I wanted to be stationed at when I was in the army at despicable Ft. Hood. I wonder if the car camera guy still has his job after this incident.

Oct. 12, 2007 | While the Bush White House promotes the possibility of armed conflict with Iran, a tantalizing passage in Wesley Clark’s new Memoir suggests that another war is part of a long-planned Department of Defense strategy that anticipated “regime change” by force in no fewer than seven Mideast states. Critics of the war have often voiced suspicions of such imperial schemes, but this is the first time that a high-ranking former military officer has claimed to know that such plans existed.

How many find this hard to believe , I don’t. If it weren’t for the genocide that would follow, I would say get out of Iraq as soon as possible.

Stupid

Why are people dumb enough to do something like this in the first place. I guess people just don’t get enough adventure in their lives but there are a lot of safer ways to take care of that. A big problem that I see with this sort of thing is that at times the lives of the rescuers are put in peril trying to get these people out of the situations they put themselves in. I am a first responder , so I kindof know whereof I speak. I can just imagine crawling on my hands and knees for over two miles, wow , what a thrill. I’d rather do a zip line in Belize or do some rappelling. I know those can get dangerous too, but they are a heck of a lot more fun.

Dry Atlanta

We all knew that Atlanta was pretty dry and about the draught and all, but this kindof shows just how dry it is and what a serious situation it is.

That is such a funny name for an important group in a government. But, after all it is Iran. This article is interesting to me.

New York Rescues

I found this interesting article this morning. It’s about some of the responsibilities that fire fighters have all over the country and what we are trained in. It is a pretty cool part of the job which includes rappelling which is loads of fun.

Watch Your Back

If you plan on going to London, you better be watching your back at all times. Some of those bobbies are Clint Eastwood on a bad day.

What was that Judge thinking when he let him go. On a technicality yet.

Sure, this guy is entitled to his private life, but was this very smart.
