Is that from Hell, and the Devil coming to collect his due?
Or from the burning gunpowder?

Yet another example of what the end of the road will look like for us.

Yes, like LC Bill Kilgore says in "Apocalypse Now" :

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like.........victory."

I smell something now, and I sure hope it smells like.....victory. Um......maybe not.

I was talking with two from the Netherlands today, who tell me that once the royalties from their natural gas play run out, in a year or two, Holland will de-Socialize. they are broke too.

Wait a minute... does this mean the welfare zombies who live 30 blocks away will be headed this way? Looks like it's inventory time...
