Hollywood Tiger

We all have seen saving Private Ryan. Remember the tank that Tom Hanks character was shooting at? That was a Tiger or should I say a Hollywood Tiger. Anyone who saw Kelly hero's with Clint Eastwood saw another Hollywood tiger. How did I know there not the real deal you ask? One there is only one tiger tank left in the world thats still a "runner". That would be early production that the english capture in Tunsia. Out of 1,354 there is only one left that still runs. Kinda blows the mind! Here the dead give away that not real tiger(outside of the info I all ready give you). One the turret sits to far forward on the chasis. The drive sprocket and idel wheel are to small. Those vechicles do not have the trade mark interluiving road wheels which was a prominent feature on the tiger. The tanks tracks are way to small and flat to be tiger tracks. Both of the Hollywood tigers have a drum cupola of early production tiger. The saving private Ryan tiger has drum cupola and Zimmerit. A paste that German's put on most of they're tanks at the time so magentic mines could not be attached to the vechicles. Zimmerit as in the case of the tiger was found on the mid and late production models. The was only three early production tigers with zimmerit and all them were on the Russian front. No one in their right mind is going to damage the one and only surviving tiger tank that still moves on it's own power. It's a piece of history that can't be replaced. The Hollywood tiger is a russia T-34 or in some case a T-55 mocked up to look like a tiger. The picture on the bottom is the Hollywood tiger. The picture on the top are of two real tigers.

Tomb Raider...banging my head against the wall!

I'm a gamer(and yes I have had sex with a real woman). Of late I have been pretty burnt out with most of my games. Silent hill series being one of my favorite .....But you can only play it for so long. Mid-night club,Naval ops,sims 2,Medal of honor series,killzone all games that I have played to no end. I thought Tomb raider I haven't played that in a while ...why not. Tomb raider is like a car wreck. Your horrified but you can't look away! This installment of tomb raider is called the angel of darkness. I have been stick at the same part for the last two years! You think I swear alot on some of my post. You should hear me playing this! I could use a cheat to get past this part. But whats the point of playing the game. Right now in the game I'm stick in a room with a red ghost. That can kill you with easy just by flying through you. In order to got out of the room I have grab a painting from the hands one of five statue. Sounds easy.....it's not. The painting is a blue light that keeps moving from the hands of the statue. You have to shoot the ghost with a shotgun and this buy you a small amount of time(and I do mean a small amount of time...try like 3secs). which should let you grab the painting,unlocking the door to get out of this nightmare! In all the walkthroughs I have read they make it sound easy. Yet, I'm still stick in this part. Which takes all the fun out of the game. There's hard and then there is tomb raider annoying. So I'm going back to yell the tv and see if I can finaly get pass this part of the game. AAAggggghhhhhhhh!

were off to save the human race...our star blazer!

Star Blazer...I remember when I was a kid rushing home to watch my favorite show at that time...which was Star blazer (spaceship Yamato as it was known in Japan). The first time I see the argo ,I feel in love with that ship it was awesome! I have allways loved battleship as well as german tanks of world war two. But with battleship I have a universal love( I don't care what country they're from). So, to see a show that brought back the biggest damn battleship ever made...will that just fucking ruled! The Argo and the Andromeda are still my favorite ships of the series. A couple of years ago I got a chance to buy the model kits from the show. I jumped at the chance. For the cost of shiping and handling of some boxes of kellogg cereal! Anytime I came across the books from the show I snagged them. I have The first season in paper back(I have all five books..which is very rare to find). As well other books from the series. Star blazer started my love for anime. It has and well always hold a special place in my heart.

Christians: Dumber Than a Box of Rocks

What it means to be a Christian.

First off, start with a frontal lobotomy. Now that my front lobe has been removed I can live in a fantasy world where logic and reason have no place. Never mind that the earth is over billions of years old I can tell you that it's only thousands of years old. Never mind that the bible was written a couple hundred years after the fact I can tell that it's the word of god and not a collection of folklore. Because I choose to believe in my imaginary playmate for adults.

I will continue to attribute the problems of the world to those who disagree with me. I will perpetuate ignorance, classism, racism and call it gods love.
Why any person of reason would call me a hypocrite is beyond me.

I will take logic and reason over a fantasy world any day.

As an atheist, now ask me why organized religion should be done away with.

oooohhh how I hate this world!

In high school I was outcast. That tradition still carrys on today. I didn't think most people get me or what to make of me. Frankly I could a care less. I have been alone most of life. No,I don't want your pity or sympaty. I have grown use to being alone. To most people I'm invsable. Where am I going with this you ask? This has allowed to observe the world around me with more clarity. The human race is really really fucked up! You kill each other in the name of gods(which always makes me laugh to no end)That never answer your prayers. I have no love for you assholes. I hope you go on kill each other. Less shitheads to pollute the genenpool. I'm all for anything that thins out the herd. I want you to feel like I do everyday......Empty! When you can live like that...then you come to talk to me.

Here we are......the Mall!

I was watching This show on the history channel talking about Fort Knox. At one point in the show they started to talk about the Sherman tank. As if it was a tank killer. It's not by any stretch of the imagination. The Sherman was wanting in ever department. The gun was to small and weak,the armor was to thin,They burned when hit. So,what do we know about the tiger? Well their was 1,354 built. Weight came in around 57 tons. It had a Maybach Hl210p45 engine. The main gun was 8.8cm kwk36 L/56. Plus two mg -34. The tiger was a true tank killer. It could knack a Sherman off it's tracks (literally) at a 1,000 yards. Where The Sherman firing at point blank most of the time the shell would just bounce of the tiger armor. What's the point you ask about my rant? The Sherman tank was a joke and everybody know it. Did they fix the problem. No,they sent our troops to there death in this piece of shit. The fact is that "the power to be" at the time should have been held accountable for incompetence. And this still goes on today in our military. Sending our troops in to battle with sorry ass equipment. The German's did not loss the war because of their equipment. They lost because Hitler was his own worst enemy. My point here being don't believe what you hear on tv about history. Read and learn about it.The picture is of Mid-production tiger of the 1.ss company of the Leibstandarte Schutzstaffel Adolf Hitler on the move in Normandy before the d-day invasion.

The Church and the Third Reich

I think it's funny how the Catholic Church sought to minimize the damage it had done during WWII. Members of the Catholic Church have since proclaimed Hitler was an occultist or atheist. This was not true, Hitler was a devout Roman Catholic. They always fail to bring up the Pope who blessed fascism. The fact is that, for centuries, the Catholic Church has been the biggest driving force for Antisemitism, and other atrocities in the name of "god", in Europe and throughout the world.
The Catholic Church benefited greatly under fascism (Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, etc...). If you ask me the model of fascism has always been the Catholic Church. My whole point here is the fact that people and institutions deny and demonize ideologies and -isms to cover up their bullshit and never take responsibility for the horrible actions committed in the name of their ideology.
