That pic reminds me about the Swedish army back the day with King Gustav II and King Karl XII... The stories goes that when they were travelling between battles, bears, wolfs among other animals followed in their path and it looked like the end of the world was near! No wonder that most of the cities surrendered rather quickly back then...I know that I would!

Heh....guess when you're rampaging through the countryside, ripping ballsacks off just for giggles, then the local carnivores are gonna be pretty darn happy to follow in your wake like Rosie O'Donnel at a Brahm's parade. Kinda interesting, though....the guy with the sabre is sporting a Ppsh (or however its spelled...), whilst his buddy is capping brainpans with what appears to be an AK47. Perhaps a captured Stg? I dunno...I just thought it was a friggin cool (and hilarious...thus its posting on this thread) story and an even cooler pic.

Be sure to read all of it. Very good!!!
In a few short days, an African American man will move from his private residence into a much larger and infinitely more expensive one owned not by him but by the taxpayers. A vast lawn, a perimeter fence and many well trained security specialists will insulate him from the rest of us but the mere fact that this man will be residing in this house should make us all stop and count our blessings - because it proves that we live in a nation where anything is possible.
Many believed this day would never come. Most of us hoped and prayed that it would, but few of us actually believed we would live to see it. Racism is an ugly thing in all of it's forms and there is little doubt that if this man had moved into this house fifteen years ago, there would have been a great outcry - possibly even rioting in the streets. Today, we can all be both grateful and proud that no such mayhem will take place when this man takes up residency in this house. This man, moving into this house at this time in our nation's history is much more than a simple change of addresses for him - it is proof of a change in our attitude as a nation. It is an amends of sorts - the righting of a great wrong. It is a symbol of our growth, and of our willingness to "judge a man, not by the color of his skin but by the content of his character".
There can be little doubt now that the vast majority of us truly believe that this man has earned both his place in history and his new address. His time in this house will not be easy - it will be fraught with danger and he will face many challenges. I am sure there will be many times when he asks himself how in the world he ended up here and like all who have gone before him, the experience will age him greatly. But I for one will not waste an ounce of worry for his sake - because in every way a man can, he asked for this. His whole life for the past fifteen years appears to have been inexorably leading this man toward this house. It is highly probable that in the past, despite all of his actions, racism would have kept this man out of this house. Today, I thank the lord above that I am an American and that I live in a nation where wrongs are righted, where justice matters and where truly anything is possible.

NASCAR Driver Jeff Gordon Fires Entire Pit Crew
The action followed Gordon's decision to take advantage of the Obama Plan for NASCAR to employ inner city youngsters.
He was persuaded by a recent documentary on Court TV on how gang bangers from Harlem, Chicago Los Angeles were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas Gordon's existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of dollars worth of high tech equipment. It was thought to be an excellent and bold move by Gordon's management team as most races are won or lost in the pits.
However-Gordon got more than he bargained for!
At the crew's first practice session, not only was the inexperienced crew able to change all 4 wheels in under 6 seconds, but within 12 seconds they had re-sprayed, re-numbered, and sold the car to Dale Pape for 10 cases of Bud, a bag of weed, and some photos of Jeff Gordon's wife in the shower.

A jumbo jet is just coming into the Vancouver Airport on it's final approach. The pilot comes on the intercom, "This is your Captain. We're on our final descent into Vancouver. I want to thank you for flying with us today and I hope you enjoy your stay in Vancouver".
Unfortunately, he forgets to switch off the intercom and now the whole plane can hear his conversation from the cockpit.
The co-pilot says to the pilot. "Well Skipper, watcha gonna do in Vancouver?"
Now all ears are listening to this conversation.
"Well" says the Captain, "First I'm gonna check into the hotel take a crap. Then I'm gonna take that new stewardess out for supper, you know, the one with the huge rack. I'm gonna wine her dine her, take her back to my room put it to her all night."
Everyone on the plane is trying to get a look at the new stewardess. She's so embarrassed that she runs from the back of the plane to try to get to the cockpit to turn the intercom off. Halfway down the aisle, she trips over an old lady's bag down she goes. The old lady leans over and says: "No need to run, dear. He's gotta take a crap first."
