Re: WPC 50K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

What is the west going to do? Really? Russia is too powerful economic wise. The thing that bothers me in all this however is if those people wanted to be Russian so bad, why not live there and leave the Ukraine alone? I don't get it.

I think these 96 % were pretty much constructed. In my opinion it's all just a farce, Russia just took it. That's it.

But as I said earlier to some friends, if we get a new Cold War at least James Bond movies will become good again.

I think it's very interesting how Putin can come and say: "Hi guys, we'll take the Krim. Thanks for listening and have a good day." and all the West is doing is screaming: "You can't have it, it's ours, you are mean!" but it has no consequences and they do nothing.

One of my coworkers has family there, but I think it's to delicate of a topic to discuss it with her. We are not that close.

My understanding is that under the USSR, Russia always had a tight grip on Ukraine. The Crimea for its military strategic importance has always been under Russian influence - even after Russia gave it to Ukraine once the USSR broke up, much to the chagrin of some folks. Still, Putin doesn't have a right to walk in their and grab it. NATO and the EU needs to do something...

One story before I crash. We drove from Dublin to Kilkenny and from there to Clonmel today. No issues with directions, thanks to HERE Maps and HERE Drive+ on my Nokia Lumia 810. My two coworkers were impressed since their Sprint iPhone devices were of not any help. With that good night and good day.

Newsflash, one of my Sprint iPhone co-workers just asked me to hook him up with a WP device, apparently he likes what my Lumia 810 can do:) His backup device is a Samesung Galaxy S3:)

I wouldn't want the red it too glossy and slippery would go for the matte finish which would be either black or white.

The white has a matte finish? Interessting, as all the white Lumias i've seen since the 920 white is still glossy...

Not really. Most people's perception of snakes is due to bad literature on them and misunderstanding. Most people don't know what a good politician is or that good politician is an oxymoron.

Growing up in the swamps, I'm very knowledgable about snakes actually. It really was a sarcastic comment on politicians. Not to be taken literally.

True, Lord knows the US cannot fight that with all the yammering at home for cuts in the military budget. Still, if i went and annexed a part of my neighbor's property my reward would be a face full of bullet holes...
