I see the difference as soft cost versus hard cost. For Ukraine, I think of it as all soft cost, which is bad. We just gave them money to do with as they pleased. We also gave them weapons which to me are sort of a hard cost because we have to replenish those at a cost to us not having them anymore.

I look at the "blockade" and associated bombings more as a hard cost. By hard cost I mean to say we are spending that money no matter what. If a carrier group is doing exercises with Japan or blocking the Strait of Hormuz we are still paying for those soldiers to be on active duty and feed them and run the ships and aircraft associated. When you go to the beach in Destin or 30A you see the fighter jets doing their daily exercises. These are costs that the military has everyday in peace and war. However, when its conflict time, these are labeled as "extra costs". I would agree that some if not most or the ordinance used is extra because it has to be replaced. But we expend ordinance everyday during training exercises.

All of that to say, when we are active in conflict, most of the associated costs were already going to be expended by the peace time mission. However, just sending pallets of cash to another Country is fully extra costs.

Agreed. They still make cloth diapers. A bitch to clean, but reusable and eco friendly.

I guess Covington or St. Tammany DA does not know how to grift this.

Several years ago, I got a ticket up in Madison Parish for 72 in a 55. Within a week or two, I got a letter from the Madison Parish DA's office. It told me my fine for speeding ($185 I think) and explained how a moving violation could go on my record and could cause my insurance to go up for several years. Then explained that if I read the attached letter and checked off that I understand the items, sign and send a separate check made out to DA Traffic for $175, the violation would be reduced to a non-moving violation.

I felt like this was straight up extortion, but I sent two cashier's checks with the letter. :banghead:

After seeing this thread, I binged the whole series. While it was good, it followed the same story line as many others. By the second ep I thought I knew who the bad guys were going to be and was correct. I had another issue with it that many of the same type shows have, but that is a discussion for another day.

He be tryin to imply that he got 10" and couldn't hit the back because Jody dun reamed her out 12-13" deep. Oh, and not only longer, but thicker. He claimin his d is like a hotdog down the hallway of his beotch stretched out snatch.

PB has the 750-800 package that is now included in dues like everyone. It also has an additional 300-350 package, as I believe all the signature floats have, that gives it special PB beads.
