— Ace

We're going to need a Michael Corleone sort of accounting at some point.

Thanks to RocketsBrain.

2 We've been at war with Iran since 1979 (the embassy takeover, the Marine barracks bombing in 83, the Khobar Towers bombing in 96 to name a few). We've just chosen not to fight back.

3 I'm thinking Mookie needs to have his headspace reshaped.

We need to declare a DMZ/freefire zone along the Iranian border. Anything moving there larger than a camel spider gets smoked.

4 If Bush ever needed a good reason to go to war against Imadnnerjacket, this is a good one that the Democrats cant ignore. Iran is sending troops and advisors and we all know what happens when advisors are sent in to another country, Thats right. war breaks out soon after they arrive.

Id say that Iminsane and the MadMullahs should be sent a bomb-o-gram with a cruise missle attached to the other end.

Just as a fair warning.

5 Of course, the bitch about going to war with Iran is that we'd have to actually obey the Geneva Convention, like, for real.

6 There has to be price to pay.

Say, as long as we're in the area...

7 This administration has convinced itself that it doesn't have the political capital to take on Iran militarily. It's so obvious, I can't believe that it is even arguable.

Believe me, I wish it was otherwise, but to hold out hope for some sign of a spine from Bush et al., is nuts.

It will take at the very least another 9/11 before america is back in the game. As tragic as that is, history repeats itself yet again.

9 Yeah yeah yeah, thats all well and good, but for some reason I bought limes tonight, I marinate my steaks in lime juice and other nibblies sometimes, but for some reason I bought 20 of the fuckers. I only got 3 steaks!

That leaves me 18 limes, and not one drop of tequilla.

10 Wickedpinto: Do you have Fred Meyer near you? If so, pick up what they call a flat iron steak. Cuts with a fork and takes a marinade good.

11 I would need 30 of those steaks forest. I have 20 fucking limes

12 what they call a flat iron steak.

Isn't that also called a "Flank Steak?" A long stranded, high connective tissue piece of meat drawn from the. . . . chest? I think? The thin layer on the side of the ribs I think. It's like a "Skirt Steak" which I think is the muscular tissue that drives the diaphram.

If thats what you mean, then yeah, I love cubing skirts, and flat-irons, don't marinate them much, I prefer them for fajita's, or salad accent, or sometimes for a breaded swiss (though alton brown thinks the round is best, I'm not a french trained chef, so I will use what I want, thank you very much alton, though I love your show)

13 This more serious than I thought WP. That's a lotta lime in one spot. Whatever you do, do not buy the Japanese tequila. More study is required.

I don't know from where the cut is carved.

14 Amen on the Alton Brown! He's got a new show coming out in July called Dining on Asphalt, which has the promise of being as enjoyable as Good Eats.

15 Re Alton's new show, episode 4 is supposed to have video of his recent motorcycle bust-up (he broke his collarbone). I heard he had 36 steaks and was in the desert looking for limes...or was it tequila?

16 Surprise, surprise, surprise! Iran doesn't want Iraq to be peaceful and stable. At least, not as long as IRAN is not the nation keeping Iraq stable, peaceful, and incidentally part of Iran.

Note the "nuance" in the article openly disputing Iraqi claims to have engaged Iranians, and taken Iranian POWs. Geez....hello, hello Reuters McFly! Iranians are ethnic PERSIANS, they are DIFFERENT from ARABS and KURDS! Think the locals can't tell the difference? <_<
