—”regarding the idea of defeating Russia in a land war, in Russia’s backyard.”

I can only guess that you sustained a similar injury, the damage is apparent.

I have some knowledge of such things.
RVN 1969, left cheek entry wound.

But I’m A-OK and have the papers to prove it, plus free license plates, a modest monthly tax rebate...

Mostly I’ve been a very lucky guy, excepting a couple of bad days.

Started in Cary, Illinois and ended up in Lake County. Did the blast blow him across the Fox?

So, I suppose the Roadrunner got away then?

I can't remember where I saw it, but I could swear that in one cartoon they showed that Acme was owned by the roadrunner somehow.

I disagree. I learned from watching Looney Tunes that you should never blow out a birthday cake that has dynamite for candles.

It’s served me well.

This guy wasn’t paying attention obviously.

Not entirely, only a few miscellaneous parts.

Some made it to the ski jump.
