Fuck it rev, we'll be roomies.

With my head on your shoulders we'll wreck civilization.
I think we'll have to refuse it, lak. We can't rely on the state to intervene on our behalf. It's against the principles of libertarianism. :prof:

Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

The article makes some points.

But the main reason is Finland is already a Nato partner.

Make sure to take it right after they've refueled.
The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

Talk about pump shock. Saw a guy fill up at the marina the other day, 785 gallons at $4.75 a gallon. Ouch.

I found a mobile diesel truck that only charged $3.75 a gallon so I bought 300 gallons. He can only fill you when you're out of the water, though.

Necessary unless we just let him take what he wants. Confiscate a few more oligarch's yachts and they'll take care of it for us.

Nothing personal, Vlad, it's just business.

Anyone remember when Obama mocked Mittens for saying Russia was a major threat? "The 1980s called, they want their foreign policy back". Then we elected a guy that even Barry thinks is a fuckup.

Putin's not getting any younger, but he's not looking any older either. Monkey glands?

I'm pretty sure it's age what's made him more or less the shape of a barrel these days.

I remember, and I really think most of us wanted to see Russia succeed.
