Hey @famousone I think this is how you have a private conversation on FS. Find an old post and tag someone. Anyway, after that Vietnam talk I remembered something. When I was a kid my dad had a bunch of technical manuals that I would read and this is the one I always came back to. I thought you might enjoy it. Now I need to figure out how to post a link.

I figured they would be crowd control. “Hey, man. It’s all cool. Everything is hoppy.” Really calm the kids down..

So a wave of crackheads to create confusion and draw fire then a surgical cokehead strike directly on the target(s)?

Hey, man. I’m just telling you the assessment of one of the few people who knew the whole of the situation in real-time. I’m not a fan of the guy for other reasons but he is not one prone to exaggeration and his information wasn’t filtered through history books.

Well obviously we need to find a study to find the most effective model. Though I think crackheads are more unstable but the cokeheads have the rage factor.

To be fair she did break up the Beatles. A lot of people wanted to punch her.

I actually tripped and fell in the room with my brother’s bike that had these and impaled my knee on the teeth. As in a dozen distinct punctures. Still gives me the willies 35 years later.

He had some interesting stories like one small unit of Viet Cong that never left the northern part of the country because we had some radar techs up at the top of a mountain they could get to. However, the part of the whole thing that he really thought was interesting was all the things that came out after the war that were never really made public. There were several things but the two I remember off the top of my head were 1. There was another entire VC army hidden in a mountain and 2. The primary liaison between the South Vietnamese and the US military was Viet Cong. We didn’t know either of those things until it was all over. It was his fervently held opinion that we never had a chance of winning and we got lucky with what we got.

So I’ve been debating saying this because it sounds like BS but hopefully I have earned enough credibility over the years that you know I am not one to just make stuff up.
.
My father was stationed in HI during Vietnam and he was in a section where each officer was assigned a country and they analyzed all the military intel for that country and briefed the top brass. He, through complete happenstance, was assigned North Vietnam. So for the last 3 years of the conflict any strategic intelligence coming from that side came across his desk. Due to the clearance he was granted he couldn’t travel to a country that bordered a Communist country for 20 years (or something like that) after he was discharged. (cont.)

@famousone I think we have a viable compromise. Especially if we give them a holster with some PCP to snort when they have to go into defense mode. Super Crackhead!

No they aren’t. By your logic it’s their choice to sell their products to the EU. In fact it would make more sense for Apple to not sell in the EU than a device manufacturer to not support the dozens of international standards on their phones like TCP/IP.

That’s what’s great about the show. They are such shitty people. It’s like a train wreck.
