And this one I believe will bite us in the ass.
"ISIL's conquest of vast swaths of Iraqi territory this spring and summer netted it a “significant” arsenal of U.S. weapons from two Iraqi military bases, including hundreds of tanks, heavily armored Humvees, assault rifles, and rocket-propelled grenade launchers, officials say. One U.S official tells Yahoo News ISIL is now considered “the most potent military force” of any terrorist group in the world."
Isn't that encouraging.

Yes. But, what it says to me is, what an obscene waste of billions of dollars to train and equip people that don't have the guts to defend themselves. They should have equipped the Kurds, they have balls. The people left in Iraq, Shites, were dominated for so long by Saddam that they are sheep. That group of thugs dressed in black pajamas rolls in and they take their uniform off, climb out of their tank and go hide under the nearest Burka. And we thought they could defend that shithole of a country?
The problem, people, is Islam and we had better come up with a plan to defeat these radicals! But, this Administration is rationing bullets to Israel! Does anyone think Obama isn't on the side of the terrorists? ISLAM = TERRORIST. PERIOD.

Where is Ruth? I'm sure I have been there, and I have a map of Nevada burned into my brain but I just can't place Ruth, at the moment?

Yes, been all over "THE LONELIEST HIWAY IN AMERICA" way before I ever heard it called that?
Not far from there, Utah side is a real cool place for camping called Honeycomb Mountain. Lots of "polygamists" in that area.
But, no doubt about it, cruising U.S. 50 is a pleasant journey and I have been over every inch of it between Nevada and Utah.
You are a lucky man to live in "God's Country".

PS, last time I passed through Ruth, I was kind of distracted because I had two flats and barely made it into Ely, of course they were shot, sliced sidewalls. I was just lucky I didn't have to walk.
