crazy article:
http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/asiapcf/09/27/afghanistan.sport.murders/index.html?hpt=T2
tl;dr – U.S. soldiers tried for murdering of innocent afgahni civilians. One soldier testifies on tape; describes throwing gernades at civilians and shooting them, also kept fingers as trophies.
That’s pretty messed up.
I’d have no problem putting them in front of a war crimes tribunal. The problem is that foreign governments are too busy trying to extradite Bush’s aides with trumped up charges instead of going after real butchers like these guys.
my wife showed me the superbowl shuffle last night and i about died laughing. interestingly enough it was during the bears game.
Believe it or not I have not watched football all weekend. I just am le sad cause school and borderlands is consuming my life.
:/
I’m seriously considering playing this Freespace Mod. I mean, really. They put a tophat on a fighter and who can resist flying a space fighter manufactured by “Sir Dashing of Gentlemenly Attires.”
my nuts wore a top hat once. Me and the Chicky were playing dress up. she was Marry Tod, and yes, my nuts were abe Lincoln. I was in charge of wardrobe.

At least she wasn’t Sweeny Todd
As a teacher I get 25% off all books in Barnes and Nobles, 25% off McDonald’s value menu, 20% anything at Denny’s, free admission to all the museums on tuesdays, a dollar off the 5 dollar footlongs, 100 dollars free if i open a checking account with Chase, and a bunch of other things.
I’m not sure if it makes up for the mediocre pay, but hell it’s still pretty neat.
edit: tbh the pay isn’t that bad either. Starting off we get paid about 46K, *edited* good health insurance, and retirement is better than a good majority. If i last till I’m 65, I get over 70% of my top three salaries. hopefully by then I’ll be an administrator, making close to six figures. If you aren’t sure what to do after college, I would seriously look into education!
46k plus good health benefits.. that’s not measly at all.. check ur stats…
I’d love to have that right now.. consider myself rich.
*edited* 28? that sucks. yeah i guess i meant mediocre compared to what some of my business and engineering buddies make. Yet compared teacher to teacher though, texas definitely treats us well.
more than enough for a single dude. I may move to egypt after a year though, the old man is running a private school funded by a group of companies in Cairo. Actually it’s more like a college prep. Started from scratch, they just got accredited and all the paperwork done. He has like 180 students. I would have a total of like 8 kids in a class, and get paid close to 60. And the real kicker is you don’t have to pay income tax in egypt.
Engineering starting salaries are at an all time low and aren’t that easy to get anymore. There’s so many *edited* indians and asians
Unfortunately, many of the asians are hot so it’s hard to be too *edited*ed. I’d hire a hot asian chick over a white guy any day
FOLLOWUP: It depends on the engineering type. Most foreigners are here for the upper tiers of engineering (electrical, chemical, nuclear). Most of the mid-range ones still have excellent job availability and starting pay because there’s much less competition for top graduates. Tbh, diesel mechanics with a college degree have better pay than I probably ever will as an electrical engineer.
