The flatest
place on earth is in the Andes mountains.
Makes sense right?
It's a salt flat.
When it rains?
It makes the world's largest mirror.
Another place to add to the bucket list Lucy.
Salar de Uyuni is the world's largest salt flat, at 10,582 square kilometers (4,086 sq mi). It is in the Daniel Campos Province in Potosà in southwest Bolivia, near the crest of the Andes and is at an elevation of 3,656 meters (11,995 ft) above sea level.
Somebody watched Kingdoms of the Sky last night :-).
I
would take him at his word.
I bet you people in the Pentagon do.
"We are near you, where you can't even imagine. We are ready,"
Soleimani said in his speech.
FYI
"The administration has no coherent policy toward Iran."
Toward Iran?
HELLO!
Toward anything.
"The U.S. military can destroy a lot of military targets from the air, including most of Iran's nuclear infrastructure. But it can't remove the regime unless it is prepared to invade and occupy the country, at the cost of billions of dollars, thousands of lives and the destruction of Iran. The Iranian people would rally in support of their government if the U.S. attacked and the Iranian security apparatus would crush an internal rebellion."
"Such an effort would isolate the U.S. internationally; Russia and China would almost certainly lend diplomatic, material and military support to the regime. And Iran would likely move to ramp up its nuclear weapons program, this time with legitimate reasons and likely wider international support. Simply put, the use of military force or economic warfare to rid the Middle East of another government the U.S. doesn't like would leave behind one heaping hot mess."
"The U.S. does have an interest in containing Iran's influence in the region. But it has no stake in using military force against Iran unless it violates three core U.S. red lines: use of terror against the U.S. at home or in the region; interrupting the flow of oil; and breaking out to produce a nuclear weapon.
At the moment, Tehran is respecting these red lines. Threatening military force in response to verbal threats by Iran's leadership — as Trump did — is both ridiculous and reckless."
"War with Iran would be an unmitigated disaster. The U.S. military could do major damage, but Tehran has options to retaliate throughout the region against U.S. forces in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and our allies with conventional weapons, terrorism and cyberwarfare. Iran's Lebanese ally, Hezbollah, could unleash a ferocious war against Israel and rebel forces in Yemen allied with Iran could escalate missile attacks against Saudi Arabia."
"These attacks would kill many Americans and Israelis; seriously set back U.S. efforts to stabilize Iraq and Afghanistan and defeat jihadists in Syria; ignite a war between Iran and Saudi Arabia over Yemen; and destroy critical energy infrastructure in the Persian Gulf and seriously disrupt the flow of oil out of the region. The conflagration would cause a sharp spike in global energy prices and possibly trigger a global recession, depending on how long it takes to extinguish the firestorm."
I'm sorry, what was that?
Logic?
Reasoning?
No wonder the writers are not working at the White House.
Aaron David Miller (@aarondmiller2), a vice president at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and a former State Department adviser and Middle East negotiator, is the author of The End of Greatness: Why America Can't Have (and Doesn't Want) Another Great President.
Richard Sokolsky, a nonresident senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, was a member of the secretary of state's Office of Policy Planning from 2005-2015.
FYI
Major-General Qassem Soleimani trained a lot of the sihite militias in Iraq.
These were the groups responsible for a lot of the IED's.
Kinda of a clickbait headline but the article is worth reading.
Turkey FYI
"The episode is the latest in a series of crises between the longtime allies. The U.S. slammed Turkey’s plans to buy a missile defense system from Russia, which already has raised the threat of American sanctions. The countries have also clashed over the war in Syria, where Turkey has increasingly acted in concert with Russia and Iran."
"Brunson’s detention has come at a critical time in U.S.-Turkey relations. Erdogan has been infuriated by U.S. support for Kurdish rebels in Syria who he views as linked to domestic terror groups. And his decision to purchase a Russian missile system has raised questions about Turkey’s role in the NATO alliance. Turkey has NATO’s second-biggest military."
"The missile system purchase and other tensions have also prompted some U.S. Lawmakers to call for a halt in sales of the F-35 jet to Turkey, even though several key parts of the fighter are made in Turkey. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis has opposed that effort, but the House-Senate conference report on the Pentagon’s fiscal 2019 funding bill calls for sales to be delayed until a report on Turkey is completed by the Pentagon."
Space?
"A full-fledged space economy is within reach, and with it, perhaps, a permanent human presence above."
"Morgan Stanley released a study last year estimating that revenue from the global industry will increase to at least $1.1 trillion by 2040, more than triple the figure in 2016."
"The moment has echoes of the early seafaring and railway eras. Forge the infrastructure, the thinking goes, and ingenuity will take it from there."
I think you're onto something sweetheart.
Bahahahahahahahahaha
Had you going for a few seconds didn't I?
Hahahahaah
You deserve it.
All your jokes you've played on me.
Pretty sweet aint she?
The
one I am thinking of was in the AM.
"PLEASE STOP!"
You were supposed to be there the day before on your mid shift and weren't.
One of the first questions I asked when getting there,
"Wheres Virgie?"
Your car wasn't there.
They gave you a vacation day to think about their offer is what I was told in the AM.
Thats the evening I busted you in the parking garage at 10 PM at night.
Cause thats what everybody does on a vacation day.
Do drive bys in a parking garage.
What were the odds I'd be out there?
Bout the same as you modeling on my model bike I suppose.
All I know was it killed me that AM.
I knew what was happening on your end of the phone.
The previous unanswered phone calls all made sense all the sudden.
You knew.
Best not to get to attached.
Making your exit easier on yourself.
Lots of good it did lol.
I didn't sleep that night.
Not a minute.
Tossed and turned all night.
Plenty of nights like that sense.
Looked like I was in shock when I got up.
Probably cause I was.
Eventually I wrapped my head around it.
I thought:
"If thats what she thinks,
if thats the kinda guy she thinks I am?
She's got another thing coming, she's never seen the likes of me before."
Neither of our lives have been the same since.
I just remember this strange otherworldly pull.
This magnetism as it were.
This uneasiness.
This thinking this isn't right.
This isn't supposed to be happening.
Not like this.
Not now.
It was way too strong to be considered any kinda normal for two people who barely knew each other.
If you didn't experience it?
I can't explain it or make it make sense to you.
I just knew.
This is not how this ends.
Not now.
Not ever.
I love you sweetheart.
I love our fairytale.
Well?
If I knew which side of the sidewalk to get on when we went for a walk?
What do you think the odds would be of this happening?
I'm sure there are tons of guys out there going:
"The right side of the sidewalk to be on?
WTF is he talking about?"
Yes.
There is a right side of the sidewalk to be on when walking with a female companion.
Mama taught me early often and well.
No, I'm not going to tell which side.
Figure it out.
'Oh what difference does it make",
I can hear them saying already.
Well?
It depends on how much style, class and grace you want in your life I suppose.
It will catch the right woman's attention.
That much I can assure you.
As will this.
Had
to mix it up a lil.
"All you do is call me
I'll be anything you need
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends
I want to be your sledgehammer"
George Clinton's "same stroke" maxim applied lol.
"Lover lay down"
Spring sweet rhythm dance in my head
Slip into my lover's hands
Kiss me won't you kiss me now
And sleep I would inside your mouth
Don't be us too shy
For knowing it's no big surprise that
I will wait for you
I will wait for no one but you
Oh please lover lay down
Spend this time with me
Together share this smile
Lover lay down
Spend this time with me
Walk with me, walk with you
Hold my hand your hands
So much we have dreamed
And you were so much younger
Hard to explain that we are stronger
A million reasons life to deny
Let's toss them away
See you and me we
Lay down look see
She and he
By my lover's side
Together share this smile
Each other's tears to cry
Together share this smile
Lover lay down
Oh please oh please
Oh please lover lay down
Oh please lover lay down
And you weep
Lover lay down
Cause it's over
Lover lay down
Say love, say love, say love, say love, say love
Should I love you
Could you love me
Darling it's all the same
'Til we dance away
Chasing me all around
Leading me all around
Leading me all around in circles
Say...

But I, I know that I will lose my soul
