I suspect we won't accept it. And about that Northwest Passage thing....sorry!

Meh.  At least y'all are consistent. 

Besides, we're not overly worried that you'll invade.  Culturally and economically y'all took us decades ago! And I'm ok with that.  I just wish that our dollars were in sync, so that I don't get hooped at the register the next time that the Mrs. drags me on a shopping spree to Kittery, or the family ambles down to Florida.

Trump could....

And resist the rebels you seditious un-Loyalist bastard    >:D

They haven't been right in the head since Vietnam
My doctor wrote me a prescription for daily sex.

My wife insists that it says dyslexia but what does she know.

'Chinese carrier group' sounds weird.

We can't live under the threat of a c*nt because he's threatening nuclear Armageddon.

People's Liberation Army Navy also sounds weird.

It's starting to feel like a bad Larry Bond book.

There's one of those over in Mystic, CT. They have sale coupons in the ValPac mailer almost every month. They also have a crap-load of musty camping gear for sale.

There are only bad Larry Bond books.

Red Phoenix was good.

Cauldron was terrible.  Wasn't great, more like Saturday matinee movie quality.

Thought Red Phoenix was meh. Clancy at his worst is better than Bond at his best.

I reread Red Phoenix last year, I thought it held up over time.

mirth

I have it in paperback and re-read it a year ago. I'd rather re-read Red Storm Rising for the millionth time.

Yes, RS is much better.

Need to reread Team Yankee sometime.

I was a big fan of Harold Coyle back in the 90's and 00's. Not sure why I stopped reading his stuff. I'll need to see what he's been up to since 'Dead Hand'.
