A video clip from a documentary about the war in Afghanistan against the Taliban that shows the Afghan soldiers enjoying and passing around a joint before joining a gun battle. The ghost of Jerry Garcia saves the life of one soldier at the end of the video. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kXR-D5hmf8]

War
I can't believe I didn't see this until Moye posted it. It's a funny spoof of the music video created in support of Obama that re-imagines it as one for McCain. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gwqEneBKUs]
Fergettabout Iran, North Korea, or Taiwan. Is the next catalyst for a world war over the Arctic Circle region around the North Pole, which happens to be a combustible mixture of being both a potentially oil and other natural resource rich area that also has indistinct and debated borders?
Five countries — Canada, Denmark, Norway, Russia and the United States — have Arctic Ocean coastlines and, under international convention, have rights to economic zones within 200 miles of their shores. Denmark has sent its own scientific expeditions to study the opposite end of the ocean-spanning ridge and to seek proof that it is torn from the continental shelf north of Greenland, which is a Danish territory.
If I were Canada I'd totally watch my back. Our country, sweet ol' US of A with our Lady Liberty and apple pie, does some crazy things for a lil' sugah, or rather oil.
