I believe he was going for "befuddled", maybe.

Nonplussed sounds more professional, though.

This is either a technologically capable ungulate or a Liz alter. Behooves me.

You caught my grammar mistake, thank you. Without proper language, we would be fish in a barrel. Thank you.

Good deal. The vernacular of the English language has changed so much in the past century. Definitions are changed in a day. We need not to change our defined words, but add to the vocabulary, if be.

Are you suggesting you used "behooves" correctly in your sentence? If so I am nonplussed.

BTW if you wanna play word games with me you better pack your OED.

Two Russian Su-27 aircraft forced down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone over the Black Sea in international airspace. US General James B. Hecker stated that two Russian aircraft hit the drone nearly causing both aircraft to crash and resulting in the loss of the drone.


You mean to tell me we were this close to a world where an unarmed drone has more confirmed air-to-air kills against combat aircraft than the F-22 and F-35 combined?

So both Russian fighter jets hit the drone? This is propaganda.

Just curious as to where you get your info.

Your statements are very definite whether on Ukrainian and Russian troop composition/capability or on the inner workings of the O&G industry.

I guess we will have more answers in a few months if the "spring offensive" actually happens...

I understand the types of crude oil needed for which refinery, having had to make proposal to sell some, and why they had to be shutdown when there was plenty of local "crude oil".

The news about training or lack of in the case of Russia, has been well documented in this thread.

I also very well understand how offshore oil and gas structures are removed. Came damned close to opening a yard to salvage equipment from them and scrap the rest but we approached it wrong just as China stopped buying scrap metal and the market crashed. The financial backing from Corpus Christi evaporated overnight.

Are you a Russian bot, or are you another victim of Russian propaganda?

Did you see my score on WWF? I’d imagine challengers would have hairballs in their throat or trembling feet, such as you.

O/T as a side note, while in CA to liquidate a flat panel line that a major chemical company was going to use to make SIMM chips as well as screens for smartphones (the chemicals used to make these is where the real money is) they also asked me to assess old Large pilot plants for herbicides and pesticides which had been reconfigured by an Iraqi born R&D chemist to make chem weapons agents. The same equipment can be used to make specialty chemicals, pharmaceuticals, even baby formula. You don't need a large complex to make chem weapons agents but actually could fit in a 3 car garage with ease. You are not trying to capture a major share of a consumer market.

I get to see a lot of things in my line of business. Even moth farms to make protein supplements out of moths
