2. it may be worth a thousand words
Edited on Wed Jan-07-04 10:29 AM by soundgarden1
but without any context the thousand words can still mean absolutely nothing. It's a war, guns get pointed at people. It may be an illegal war, but to act shocked at guns being pointed at people is to be shocked at the wrong thing.

8. I'm not pro-war either
but I don't get this picture as being worth anything.

Maybe I need to go to the linked site to understand it, but by itself. . . . .zero.

I see two (?) tanks or whatever they are, with a group of people between them. Prisoners? Civilians? Mechanics?

:shrug:

Everything needs a context. .. .and some things need explanations.

5. Prisoners sent to Mars?
What a novel idea. But is it cost effective?

6. Possibly...
Then Mars would become the new Australia!

Hmmm, "Marstralia?"
