Abm0raz's Journal: lock and load

So Billy Gates is getting knighted by the queen of England. That puts him in company with many other famous 'warriors'. A knight is traditionally a warrior of the country. The commanders in the army. I say we go bomb London next. All they have to defend themselves these days is 2 computer nerds (Gates & Berners-Lee), a flamboyant fag in rhinestone glasses (John), Batman's butler (Caine), a burnt out 60 year old rockstar with a bigger sex drive than me (Jagger), an insect (McCartney), and a pudgy ex-mayor (Guilliani). How does that compare to a bunker buster or a M.O.A.B.?

On the other side, they do have 2 of the greatest spies ever (Connery & Moore) and a man with the combined power of Gandalf and Magneto (McKellen). That could be problematic.

OTOH...

[Ethelred Unraed]

...we have Superman.

OK, he's in a wheelchair paralyzed from the neck down, but hey.

And we have Batman v3.0, aka Clooney, currently filming on location in Scotland. What a coincidence!

Damn. They still got Cap'n Picard. We don't even got Kirk, that Canuck bastard. We're doomed!

Ah, but we still have Janeway. And Wesley.

OK, that does it, we lost. Be prepared to receive your government-issued teacakes and Tetley's. God Save the Queen!

We got Sisko as well. I'd give him even odds with Kirk, with either of that pair taking all comers.

M.O.A.B.?

[insanecarbonbasedlif]

Is this some heathen weaponry which tries to entice our chosen weaponry to intermarry with it?

Mother Of All Bombs (or, more accurately: Massive Ordnance Air Blast). It's the largest convential warhead used by the US military with an explosive power roughly equal to 1/5 the A-bomb dropped on Hiroshima. They tested one in central Florida [cnn.com] last year just before the Iraq war and people over 20 miles away felt it.
