I was wondering what to get my father for his birthday. I Actually missed it so I want to get him something nice. As he lives in the US it will need to be something i can post easily and I thought a nice watch might as he is in his late 60''s. I started looking through some nice gents watches online and was wondering if anyone had suggestions?

Drones, are they working?
TaylorJ replied to nevermind, neoliberalism has had it's topic in Non-Football
If the purpose of a drone is to kill and instill terror (I thought it was meant to fight the disease of terror and not be a Petri dish) then yes, they are working. If the purpose of a drone is to police and keep people safe and prevent further carnage, then they are failing miserably. As far as sovereignty goes I was wondering how drones are differentiated from airplanes. Is it because they are smaller, or that they are unmanned (unwomanned) or the height at which they fly that they are allowed to impinge on the airspace of others? Is is a crime to shoot them down? One of the horrors of them is the psychological disconnect caused by the physical disconnect. Because the ''pilot'' is not in any actual danger themselves, as they would be in a ''traditional'' firefight, it becomes easier to kill. Also, because it is virtually like a video game from he standpoint of the pilot, it is also easier to pull the trigger and kill. The last thing anyone needs in war is an increased ease with which they kill. -
I would have to say that Zardoz is definitely one of the most cringe-worthy films. Shredder Orpheus is also an old favourite of mine. Getting to the real bottom of the barrel is Hercules in New York.
