Legal drinking age in Germany is 16, try again.
I rode on the articulated subway in Berlin this year during a weekend, including early Saturday morning. Lots of partiers, no vomit. Maybe Canadians drink like teenagers?
What ship has ever been invincible? I think the idea here is that between stealth for defense and enhanced radar and electronics for offense, this ship will shoot first.
Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death. -- James F. Byrnes
