News:

All you can say in this site's defence is that it, rather than reality, occupies the warped minds of some of the planet's most twisted people; gods know what they would get up to if it wasn't here.  In these arguably insane times, any lessening or attenuation of madness is maybe something to be thankful for.

Quote from: Bathory's Sainthoodthis is true, but the reality is that China could probably accomplish the total subjugation of hte taiwanese populace without destroying more than 5 or 10 percent of the industrial output capabilities of the entire island (remember, there's also a large manufacturing center in the south of the island), and even that could be restored relatively quickly once order was restored...

Roger:  You fail to take their aegis cruisers into account.  China's missiles are slow, and have no evasive capability.  China = wasted a lot of ordinance, Taiwan = pointing and laughing.

you're placing the defense of Taiwan in the hands of an AMERICAN anti-missile system?   :lol:

and remember, China HAS a shitload of ordinance to waste...unfortunately, it'll probably never happen, 'cause it'd make for DAMN good dinner theater...

Roger:  Yes.  One thing Americans do VERY well is make weapons.

true, with one notable exception: one thing americans don't do very well is shoot missiles out of the sky with smaller missiles.

Dearest Roger and Chef,

Please to be explaining where it all went wrong with Salaore?  What could be better than a tropical island ran by a gorgeous dictator who lets you do pretty much anything you want?
Did someone say gorgeous?

Chef, how could the government have handled the loss of 25 million peoples information from one of their databases better?

Dear Papa,

It all went wrong when Diabo steal the Z out of Salazore.  Crops not coming in, rent boys not going out.  Goats in short supply, being hogged up by Uday.  Tia Tequila cancel state visit.
