    Unjammable Afghan I.E.D. - Just what we need, scheeeze.

    Scary report:

    http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2010/02...y6169941.shtml

    It's rumored this type of bomb was responsible for the most recent Afghan killings of U.S. troops probing for enemy positions in Helmand Province. If you didn't know, the U.S. has announced a major impending offensive in Helmand scheduled for this month or next.

    Seems these can be made for as little as $100. At that price, this new bomb is the harginger of very difficult operations in Helmand and likely the rest of the country as well. It wouldn 't take much capital to mass produce such devices.

    Feeling sorry for my Marines.

    B and G are too close together on my keyboard ever since my holding tightly the wheel with my left hand and the throttle with my right in high seas gave me a trigger finger on my right pointing digit.

    Over the last few years, I also developed a trigger finger on the middle digit on my left hand. It's very hard to close that digit at the middle joint anymore resulting in a near-permanent flip off sign. Fairly or not, I've taken to blaming Bush for that, much to the bemusement of my friends and family.

    Sorry, and, thanks for the correction.

    Blaming the keyboard for your typo is almost as lame as blaming Bush for your arthritis.
    Oh, and your welcome.

    So, I'll take that as a vote for NOT in the fairly or not category.

    Thanks again,
