Nuke this Adrenalize Song

 'Hey, Senator, hot down here, isn't it?' Madeline Albright asked John McCain. Madeline Albright was neoliberal-interventionism. The ambassador to the UN and later secretary of state, Albright once asked Colin Powell, 'What's the point of having the world's greatest army if you're not going to use it?' or some such. She was a passionate advocate of the failed Oslo negotiation between Israel and the PLO and constantly advocated 'restraint' as Arafat's* terrorist murdered Israelis.

Click here for this Def Leppard unnamed video. We hate this Adrenalize song so much we won't even name it. The song is stupid and juvenile. The worst song on the album, and the worst song Def Leppard wrote between 1981 and 1992. This song usually makes the live set, sadly. That's when we go get another beer. Reader(s) should watch this live version of White Lightening instead. Note, Def Leppard live sounds pretty much like Def Leppard on the album. 

Bill Roggio, who is much less optimistic about Ukraine than a lot of the media cheerleaders, tweets his latest assessment of the war. 'The Russian advance is slow, but it is advancing,' Roggio says. To our eye, Russia has taken about half of Ukraine east of the Dnieper. Russia is executing large thrusts, successful at the strategic level while the Ukrainians are launching successful localized counterattacks. We remained stunned at Ruski tactical ineptitude. 

We won't comment on events in Russia because we don't know whose info to trust. An anonymously sourced article titled something like, 'Wife mad at Putin over war: report,' or 'Putin advisor tries to resign,' is not to be trusted. And no, we won't ask our KGB handler what he thinks. It's hard to get Russians to talk about anything, and we don't want to put him in an awkward position. Our man in Moscow works for a government publication (like every staffer at NPR or the BBC) and we just don't know what he's comfortable saying. 

Sales of The Great Nuclear War of 1975 have already surpassed books like Seven Stories and A March Through Hell. So 75 is not a flop. Also, 30 + reviews so it doesn't suck. Daily sales are up and down, but we think they'll plateau somewhere below a World War 1990 novel. We had some ju-ju yesterday and should get a scene written in book 3 today.
