I concur with that. Particularly about the place, ME, can't be fixed, only managed. The Mongols "fixed" it for a time... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Baghdad_%281258%29 In all seriousness, was that the last time there was relatively uniform security and stability in the region? A...

Wolf of Wall Street

It's no Goodfellas , but Scorsese is in solid form. I've seen almost all his films, and this is far and away the funniest thing he's produced. All the performances are excellent, and there is an abundance of high-grade ass on display throughout the film. Funny enough, the strongest bit of acting may...

Re: HOW BOUT DEM COWBOYS!!!

Jerry Jones is the George Lucas of NFL owners. I've been rooting for the Cowboys for over 20 years, and he's doomed them to 8-8 ad perpetuum . I suppose it could be worse (Mike Brown), but the real agony of mediocrity is that it gives you a modicum of hope... only to dash it in dramatic fashion, usu...

Fantastic pics. My grandfather always told me he found out relatively late in the day (he'd been out duck hunting), then enlisted in the Navy the next day. As for Japan...

I voted option "B", with an emphasis on "rugged". In the event of natural disaster and/or government collapse, after which the urban masses turn into roving bands of outlaws, the AK-47 would certainly be good enough, especially for engagements at < 200m (as cited by BB). I know i...

I'm playing the new CoD Ghosts and the on-line play is driving me insane...the lag compensation is ruining it for me. I understand what they're trying to do with on-line play but it isn't working very well. I haven't played much CoD (any of them), aside from matches with my nephews. They're addicte...

It's easy to sink 100+ hours into any of Bethesda/Obsidian's big titles, even without mods. They're a fantastic escape, no doubt about it. I just wish Bethesda would hurry up with Fallout 4.
