Or maybe a bunch of sealift and support vessels. We don’t have near enough of those.

By that point, it would’ve been Abrams, but 48 hours might be generous.

He evidently said he would have quickly won the war.

It looks like Elmo grew up and got a job.

South Korea could probably produce a bunch of destroyers and frigates, too.

Lightning Win!

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.

This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

The Lightning are in it again tonight.

Jim is one of our nation’s most eminent virologists. Allowing the flu to spread among our troops is a national security issue, putting military preparedness at risk. This is how deep the rot is among this country’s leadership.

A global commons no longer: Sea control reimagined In recent years the way in which states perceive the value of the seas has changed. The processes of legal and extra-legal territorialization have meant that the seas are now viewed as having value...

His ass would have widened the war earlier, bombed dikes, mined harbors, and brought the Soviet Union and China into the conflict.

We would have either lost faster or had a nuclear exchange and all be dead.

I would love to add trellises to our balcony.

Every time someone knocks, the cats run and hide.

We have very clear instructions for delivery people not to knock.

Door Dash dude knocked.

He was still at the door taking a photo of the bag when I opened the door.

We got my MIL one of the grey ones but I thought should have gotten a more colorful model.

I really liked the first iMacs in fun colors.

I always root for the bulls.

Darn near killed 'em.
