It is an intentional insult to Denmark… it’s not lunacy… it a purposeful poke in the eye…

Free healthcare as a rule sucks by the way… there’s a reason why wealthy people that live in countries with free healthcare go to countries that don’t have free healthcare to seek serious medical attention..

Not mentioned much by the socialists is that most of those “free” health care countries also have private hospital networks for those who can afford the best care and want timely appointments.

Spot on my grandmother went to the public hospital 3 times and they weren’t able to identify any problems one trip to a private hospital and they found the problem. The public healthcare is just not the same standard as the private sector.

I had no idea about this. Canada just doesn’t praise their armed forces enough

10000% concur…

The oddity of the Canadian military is that every Canadian service member I have ever met has been a true professional and very skilled in their craft…

But they are saddled with substandard, often failing equipment, and a government that pretty obviously could care very little about their wellbeing…
 
My personal dealings with the Canadian Navy. They were top tier professionals.

I loved the rounded bow profile of the Canadian Corvettes and Destroyers. Especially the “Sloop of War” Corvettes
 
I am truly sorry for those who missed it, but the gold medal game between the US and Canada was as good as Lake Placid's match against the Soviets. It also paralleled it with the game largely saved by the incredible goalie play of Connor Hellebuyk. He blocked 40 of 41 shots on goal. Just amazing play. Much like Jim Craig blocking 36 in 1980. Both Canada and the Soviets generated twice as many shots as the US.
 
Many years ago when I was attending C school at Point Loma for the MK101 fire control system used on the Seawolf, Greyback and blueback amongst other old boats. They had a contingent of Canadian submariners attending another class. We would chat on our breaks. They left me with a high opinion of them and would gladly serve next to them. They were pretty sharp and friendly while being very professional.
 
It was a phenomenal hockey game. I am still shocked the U.S. won.

Just before the game-winning goal. Canada was pummeling the goalie and I thought it was just a matter of time since they dominated shots on goal stats. I just knew they were eventually gonna get one in and win. But just like that the U.S. makes a great pass and shot.

I wonder if the men’s hockey team will get a stuffed toy for being the silver medalists like the Canadian Women’s Hockey team.

Both teams got them, a couple of the players looked at them with a what in the hell is this type of look.
 
Adam Schiff announced he will not attend Trump's SOTU. The little Rat will instead speak at a rally.
Will the classless Dems tear up Trump's speech again?
I doubt not that there will be some form of child like behavior in the chamber from the Democrats.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Good day, Slider.

Do you by any chance have any 500NE brass left that you are willing to part ways with?

Best regards,
Boela Bekker.
