Most militaries have various psych tests specifically to weed out the mentally ill or unstable. So-called psychopaths are in general, people who...

I would have thought "breakout" was more familiar to folks as I'm used to seeing it and I'm usually the last on the list. Anyway, "breakout" as...

You never told us about your Australian ancestry. :) Cats...do they love us or do they try to get us up to their standards?

I thought that you might be thinking that. I can’t imagine that a country would actually want to have “psychopaths” in its midst for military...
