Etiquette and Protocol

Every medium has them. Right, NBC?

I wonder how many people had heart attacks before they got to word nine?

  1. Good thing the line break wasn't one word earlier.

    Remember 'War of the Worlds'...

  2. Well, as long as Obama is decommissioning our nuclear weapons, anyway, I've got nine targets in mind for decommissioning nine more.

    Oh, wait--nine commanders of nuclear missiles. For cheating. Well, I've got nine places for them, too.

  3. Dante might be proud of you, although in truth I think his formula has only two: the second circle of Hell, or the top level of Purgatory. Dante, at least, was generous with the lustful.

  4. I was thinking less of Dante's locations than I was of some places here on Earth, during their current lives.

    Point Barrow, for instance, always has a need for an experienced commander, and there'd be no need for any reassignments for several years. And Thule.

    Kharkhiv and/or Luhansk could use missile shield radar site commanders of some experience, too.... Though I'm reluctant to do that to the Ukrainians, including those of Russian ethnicity.
