  1. more teasers Obviously I can't wait for the show to return. I hate when shows take breaks midseason like this
  2. Animation is awesome in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qi7AqqeAmyQ
  3. welcome, I don't remember you though, I think I was somewhere else at the time
  4. In the Army, it is push-ups, sit-ups and 2 mile run. In my opinion, being able to pull up your own weight is a better judge of fitness than doing push-ups and sit-ups. Having to pull up your own weight (or another person) actually might save your life, depending on the situation. Women have no business being in infantry units, on the front lines, or being put in positions in which they might have to engage in combat. Not only are they psychologically less capable, but they also mess with the morale of the troops, undermine the cohesion of the unit and generally just fuck everything up. They are constantly reminding everyone about sex. That's just what women do. The way they talk, the way they act, everything. I saw it first hand. And when you don't acknowledge their approaches, but instead try to remain professional, they act like something is wrong with you. They are perpetual children. Are there exceptions to this; of course. But for the most part, they need to be in the rear with the gear. Men and women are not equal. Instead of trying to treat everyone equally, we should instead be catering to the strength of each sex and their traditional roles that have been set for most of human history.
  5. haha, nice, I decided to let my greys go as well. fuck it.
  6. It's a new year, and new episodes of "The Walking Dead" are slightly more than a month away. In advance of the midseason premiere, AMC has debuted a new poster promoting the show's return, prominently featuring Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) along with a less prominent appearance from his father, Rick (Andrew Lincoln). AMC's "The Walking Dead" returns for the second half of its fourth season at 9 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 9.
  7. oh really? lol guess I best get caught up. Who do you think it will be? I'm only at the part in the comics that is the same as the last scene in the midseason finale "dont look back carl"
  8. Relevant news added to Disaster specific preparations. Nuclear Attack/Meltdown category. NUKE FEAR: Feds Order 14 Million Doses of Potassium Iodide...
  9. This is the playbook. Use terrorists to cause problems, then swoop in with the solution.
  10. I think this is all part of the workup to wwIII, yes.
  11. POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR BACK HALF OF SEASON 4 and Spoilers for the Comic
  12. I just watched the movie The Iceman with Micheal Shannon about this guy. It was a good fucking movie.
  13. Yeah, it does seem to be in search a lot. Sounds like it has ruined those for good.
  14. Interesting theory Evidence FOR the Governor to be officially dead: 1. Everything that was shown in the show to that regard. By all accounts dude should be dead. 2. His listing among the casualties during The Talking Dead. 3. The fact that he also dies, killed by a different Lily, in the book during the assault on the prison. 4. Given the arc of the Governor on the show, it made sense for him to die then and there. However, here are the loose ends that perhaps make a case AGAINST him dying: 1. We never really see his face/head getting blown off. This is not me being morbid or graphic, but considering we got everyone else's graphic deaths right on our faces throughout the episode (from Hershell, to the key players in the Governor's group), it's odd that we don't see the final fate of the Governor on screen. We do see a fallen chess piece, which could be a reference to his literal death or to a metaphorical fall of the leader of the group/family (but not his official death). Just saying, a character of this magnitude, you want to know that he's dead-dead. I don't believe in the Michonne approach of skewering the guy and giving him the look of "you so dead now", but not sticking around to see it through or finishing the job. 2. In the books, prior to the attack on the prison, he's maimed very badly by Michonne. As in missing-limbs badly. So the character has the potential to come back from pretty horrible stuff. Again, another case for sticking around to either finish the job or making sure the guy dies for realz, Michonne! 3. Interesting that David Morrissey was not invited to bid adieu to his character on the Talking Dead (as is customary). You have Hershell, and Kirkman (the writer and creator of the comic book), and... Maggie! WTF? Where is David Morrissey to talk about the last time we saw the Governor... unless... it's not the last time? 4. Although the arc makes perfect sense for the character, I'm wondering if it makes sense bringing Morrissey back for just 3 episodes (and a glimpse at the end of another) only to be killed. Granted, all three episodes really concentrated on him, but still... 5. And what about Lily? What is her fate now? Did she get killed? Did she run away? Does she have anything to live for? Or does she have another purpose in this story? I can see a scenario where she shoots close to the Governor's head, and then decides she's going to get out of there alive with this bastard. She may want answers before she really kills him, she may not have the killer bone in her yet, who knows? But I'm not sure of what would the show do with her at this point... except abandon the character into oblivion OR... use her as an excuse to get the Governor barely alive out of this one. I know, too many what if's, but I do think the lack of a visual of an uncontested death of the Governor AND his absence as a guest in the Talking Dead are my biggest (and closest to most legitimate) red flags.
  15. Has ‘The Walking Dead’ Seen the Last of the Governor? The Governor is dead … or at least that’s what we thought. Despite suffering what appeared to be a fatal gunshot to the head during the Walking Dead midseason finale, the Governor might rise again — or, at least, we might see actor David Morrissey again on the hit AMC drama. “Something happened to him,” he teased in an interview with Press Association when asked about future appearances on the series. “I feel like a shady politician where I can’t confirm and I can’t deny anything. … Certainly, bad things befell him at the end of the last episode but we just have to wait and see.” Death isn’t always the end on The Walking Dead, with characters able to return from the grave as zombies from time to time — assuming the nature of their death allows for such a transformation. Assuming Lily didn’t have horrible aim, the Governor’s brains should be splattered on the battlefield just inside the prison’s perimeter. In other words, don’t expect Morrissey’s character to resurface, unless it’s via flashback. The Walking Dead returns Sunday, Feb. 9 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on AMC

  20. This section is long, but important. If you have been following my Economic Situation thread, then you will hear some of the same advice I've been giving there. You need to protect your money. Keeping it in the form of dollar bills sitting in the bank is not safe. If you don't hold it in your hand or have it at your house...... you don't own it. A new currency will rise out of the ashes of the dollar. Investing in food preps, commodities and/or gold/silver will preserve and protect your wealth during this transition. "The amount of stuff" a Nation produces is what determines its Wealth, not how much money it has. This is a basic tenet of economics that you need to understand. The US is no longer as wealthy as we used to be because we have lost a lot of our Manufacturing base. AKA Our ability to "make stuff". According to Forbes, the United States has lost an average of 50,000 manufacturing jobs per month since China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001. Acquiring the necessary items to sustain you through a SHTF scenario could make you wealthy. You may start to see some overlap between the many posts here. That is because I am compiling advice across many references. Here is some advice about Collapse Investing. Collapse Investing: Money and Wealth Preservation During Times of Uncertainty and Instability The Currency of Kings Commodity Investing with Zero Counter-party Risk Land and Real Estate Get Some Skills! Planning for the Unknown with 401(Prep) Investing Action Items: Research how other countries used alternative currencies in post-shtf emergencies. Some great online resources are FerFAL’s Surviving in Argentina, Selco’s SHTF School. Familiarize yourself with alternative currencies that could be deemed valuable during a post-SHTF scenario. Familiarize and become proficient in skill sets that would be seen as profitable during an extended emergency.
