How about a Ballistic Missle Boat painted White!

Now wouldnt that be a sight to see!

THAR SHE BLOWS!

(Peace thru Superior Firepower!)


we have superior fire power now, how's that working for us?

Superior fire power is worthless if you don't have the onions to use it.

And totally stupid if "collateral damage" consequences are not evaluated carefully... Negotiation is a better option towards long term peaceful solutions...

Oh dear, USAnians are in trouble because of their denial as to the consequences of the Global Economic Crisis... The "Climate Change" thread has been closed ??? No freedom of expression or any capacity to spread the truth of the matter in USA... There is lots of stuff everyone needs to understand and research... The end of the world will not be as in "Waterworld" nor plagues and pestillence or other events, - except when caused by mankind, directly or as "Collateral Damage"

CALLING YOURSELVES "AMERICANS" is an arrogant and self important colonialist INSULT to all others resident in the CONTINENTAL LANDMASS known colloquially as the landmasses of North and South America and adjoining island nations... Are you so "superior" to a Canadian, Jamaican, Mexican, Cuban, Brazilian, Chilean, and the many other countries on whom you seek to heap insult with your petty and ANONYMOUS negative rep points "USAnians is derogetory"... Your CUNTry is USA I presume... What would you have others call you, collectively? Loosers? Read the link for affirmation of the fact from another USAnian...

This link should answer a question posted elsewhere...

Do talk to people, sensibly and with an open mind, about the Global Economic Crisis, Let then see and listen to a bit of Gerald Celente... He is a good researcher, (Trends Research), and has a gift of the gab and a lovely Jewish/Brooklyn accent, with knowledge to match - but it gets tedious and boringly repetitive, so "One Good Hit" is enough, then move on to the list of links, People seeking HONEST answers can do their own research and due diligence reading in their own time with these links...
http://inflation.us/about.html National Inflation Association - NOW STUFF and good video and other archives...
http://rt.com/programs/keiser-report/ Keiser Report - Programs — RT - NOW STUFF and very "in your face" ... Has the experience and background (and knows Troy?)
http://www.gata.org/ Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee, Exposing the long-term manipulation of the gold & silver market
- REVIEW EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND INFO which IS carefully checked
http://www.kingworldnews.com/kingwor...orld_News.html King World News EXCELLENT QUALITY
http://www.shadowstats.com/ Shadow Government Statistics - Home Page The truth of the numbers REVIEW EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND INFO
http://www.roadtoroota.com/public/department39.cfm Public Front Page "The Road to Roota" REVIEW EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND INFO

Then at least register with the free subscription services for the above as well as these.... as follows,
MoneyMorning Australia free newsletter
Subscribe to the Global Research e-newsletter
DailyReckoning Australia free newsletter
National Inflation Association free E-Newsletter
ALL free Casey Research publications

Be diligent now... There is lots to learn and understand and thoughts and ideas from AROUND the world that tell it like it is, no punches pulled, (well some that can be very hurtful, but sometimes the TRUTH is a bitter pill to swallow)... If you cannot handle the truth, You are DOOMED...

If you have some free subscription sites that you find reliable and credible then post links here too.... The ones I have posted have good GLOBAL content as well as a little local stuff

The entire "Western World" will likely succumb to the collapse due to the Global Economic Crisis, Which IS NOT OVER... It will GET LOTS WORSE... It is being hidden and disguised by the fraudulent and misguided activities of the Banksters and The US FED RESERVE bank which the Banksters OWN and use as their tool to manipulate EVERYTHING and almost ALL the leaders (business and politics) in USA...

To survive as a small community you will need to securely hide behind a thickly planted barrier of trees to keep horses and horse drawn carriages from seeing or gaining ready access to your community.... Within that sanctuary grow, preserve and share your own fruits, vegetables and meat... Become TOTALLY independent of external supplies of electricity, water, sewerage, and EVERYTHING... Within years, all that will not be available as "public services" will cease to function...

Well, Mas, you call yourself an Australian to the exlusion of all other countries on your island continent!
We can argue about the impending Ice Age and its effects on boating here: http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/ope...ing-36203.html

What Ice age? Oh you mean all bank accounts frozen and fiat currencies (Paper stuff), becomes worth less than used toilet paper?

Australia has only one "Internationally recognised Government" but that is of no consequence, as the many "Aboriginal" Nations are still recognisable as co-existing groups and collectively happy to use the word "Australian" with no conflict, as representative of the citizens and residents that may all carry the passport of Australia... Many Aboriginals identify themselves under their respective tribal collective noun... I know about 4, but do not ask me to type them as I do not know the correct spelling...

Whereas USA is a legally recognised country within the bounds of North and South America, - therefore, the United States of America is a subset of those major landmasses... The Samoans are officially from Samoa and a little to the East is the US 'managed country of American Samoa... Ethnically some of the people there may be ethnically "Samoan" but all residents are either USAnians (for want of a better word) or American Samoans based on the Government and passport identification...

NZ is a separate country to Australia however, (i understand that), visas are not necessary to travel between Australia and New Zealand by passport holders of either country... New Zealanders have several ethnic groups and may be referred to as Maori, Kiwi's, or New Zealanders as well as many permanent residents from other Pacific Island Nations...

All the States and Territories of Australia come under the one Federal Government control and cover the territory in Antarctica, The State of Tasmania and 2 groups of islands in the Coral Sea between Sydney and NZ (Norfolk and Lord Howe Islands), and two groups of islands to the NW of Western Australia, being Cocos (Keeling) islands, and Christmas Islands and of course the main Australian landmass...

Quite a few available, drifting freely in the floods, and / or not at their usual place of mooring...
