"If a warrior's head were to be suddenly cut off, he should still be able to perform one more action with certainty."

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, (1999)

Fair enough?

War is hell. The average citizen has been able to sit back in the recliner and get his truth on demand, watching all of the mayhem unfold via the remote. Complete with cool graphics, Hot blonds, and a steady stream of "experts".

But now, the Chickens are coming home to roost.

It's his neighbor that is effected.

It's a friends Son.

It's the company he works for.

It's Big Pharma.

It's Big Oil.

It's a stroll through his house to see nothing but Chinese made products.

It´s unlikely it will end just like that.

A major crisis could change everything. So, a major crisis is quite likely.

I think you are right about summer or early fall. We are just a step away from the cliff.

And why would a romanian who likes Mortal Kombat care?

And you know what strikes me, that you can lean on the edge of a cliff and be perfectly alright until that split second when you fall !!

One second you're alive and well, the other one you're dead !

Things can stay on the edge of a cliff for a long time, apparently.

Look at Europe.

OK, thats just silly ! It's just a username and an avatar, I could of chosen Princess Leia and Chewbacca as an avatar, it wouldn't of made any difference !

I care because, unlike many around the world, I realize that if America falls, we all fall !!!

And because the American people do not deserve this fate, no hardworking man should be robbed blind by the big banks and corporations !

Yes, man made. Like the mess we have here.

If/when the system collapses, I´d rather be elsewhere.
