If WWIII happens it will happen. It will be about Water, Oil, Geography, Economics, Religion, or what ever.

However, There is some shit happening in the world that the United Nations should be taking care of. But they are not. Why? Because it it just does not matter in the economic map.


JOHANNESBURG Rwandan and Congolese rebels gang-raped nearly 200 women and some baby boys over four days within miles of a U.N. peacekeepers' base in an eastern Congo mining district, an American aid worker and a Congolese doctor said.

Will F. Cragin of the International Medical Corps said Monday that aid and U.N. workers knew rebels had occupied Luvungi town and surrounding villages in eastern Congo the day after the attack began on July 30.

More than three weeks later, the U.N. peacekeeping mission in Congo has issued no statement about the atrocities and said Monday it still is investigating.

Cragin told The Associated Press by telephone that his organization was only able to get into the town, which he said is about 10 miles (16 kilometers) from a U.N. military camp, after rebels ended their brutal spree of raping and looting and withdrew of their own accord on Aug. 4.

At U.N. headquarters in New York, spokesman Martin Nesirky said Monday that a U.N. Joint Human Rights team verified allegations of the rape of at least 154 women by combatants from the Rwandan rebel FDLR group and Congolese Mai-Mai rebels in the village of Bunangiri. He said the victims are receiving medical and psycho-social care.

Actually, my gut tells me that when gas gets to 8 bucks a gallon, the Marine will be among the first to figure out how to find cheaper alternatives.

Now us philosopher types, who don't know the difference between a carburetor and a distributor, who satisfied our science requirement by astronomy rather than physics or chemistry, we'll be bitching and whining.

But the Marine. I ain't worried about him.

And I ain't particularly worried about America as long as there are more cranky bastards like him than pissants in Washington.

Markets are like Marines. They ain't always pretty. And they sometimes spew a lot of shit.

But they work.

That ain't philosophy. That's truth.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

+1 to RP. Goes to show my old argument that the UN is completely worthless. Yes, I'm aware of what's going on there and it's sicker than anything going on in the Middle East right now.

Also, Somalia has anarchy, but nobody cares. The reason they've gone to pirating is because of survival. Africa is an inconvenience to the UN at best. They don't care because they don't have the energy resources the Middle East has.

Sad thing, when the genocide was going on in Rwanda, instead of the UN acting, they spent the whole time arguing the definition of genocide.

As for what Marine Dave (said with affection, not as an insult) said about $8/gallon gas, good. We need to break our dependence on foreign oil.

Sometimes, the alcoholic has to come close to death for him to realize he's got a problem.

America is an alcoholic, except our drug is not alcohol, it's oil. Maybe we need to hit rock bottom before we realize that we should have gone a bit more natural gas/uranium/solar/wind instead of foreign oil, and also worked on cleaner ways to burn coal. It can be done. Read Scientific American. They explain how in graphic detail.

Wade - I've used biodiesel before. It smells like french fries. Love it. If oil shoots up, I'm going back to it. Conversions are easy and out in hippie land where I'm at, you can pay someone else to do it for cheap if you can't do it yourself.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice
Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
