Overnight Open Thread (24 Jan 2015)

Dang it, this winter has been a bust here in the Hampton Roads area so far. Just rain, no snow. I blame the snow shovel I finally bought at the end of last season. I finally got the gear I needed for when it snows and now it does not snow. Figures. Monday night/Tuesday is lookin' good though for some snow. Too good for those of you in the northeast according to some of the models.

The Liaoning

How China got their first aircraft carrier. That was a pretty sweet deal they worked.

B-52

Sex Themed Park

Taiwan plans to build a sex and love theme park. And I thought a measles outbreak at Disneyland was bad. No rides were mentioned so I guess you'll have to bring your own.

War Movie Poll

What is the best war movie ever made? I voted for Patton. Too bad Band Of Brothers wasn't on the list.

A-10s In The News

A-10s fly combat missions over Syria.

School Teacher Enforcing FLOTUS Desires

School tries to shame Dad for what he packed in daughters lunch. Why is the cafeteria reporting on lunches that folks bring in? It's none of their damn business.

WTF?

It is a sad state of affairs when you have to go to court to keep your right to pee standing up.
Reminds me off this scene from Curb Your Enthusiasm.
