Heh, Alaska. Go ahead, dudes.

Too bad all of our troops are holed up in Afghanistan and Iraq. Too bad our government is 100% committed to Iran as our next target and not a country that actually has the capability to do something and a crazy-ass dictator who would.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So we've activated our missile defense system. I'm just hearing about this as I'm going to work.

What do you guys think about this? And just how effective is this system?

Nearly every test of this has failed, only a handful have passed, although, if I am remembering correctly, most of the problems were known to be correctable errors. There hasn't been a lot of news about it lately, I don't think there have been many tests recently (a good portion of the system is made here in Tucson).

Based on what I've heard, we shouldn't rely on this system quite yet.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, the North Koreans are typically not outpacing anyone in technology, so when you say "wouldn't they have", if by they you mean the US, then US. And the US can test its own technology against its own defense.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

You're on the Shiloh?

Do you know, Duo, does the Navy use the interceptors made by Raytheon, or is that the, uh, Army maybe?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
