It would've been a suicide mission for the US to send further support to the Philippines. Keep in mind that at the same time as they defeated MacArthur (I hope I have the right general) they defeated the British in Singapore and the Dutch in Indonesia, and neither of those opponents was equipped for offensive operations.

Basically, what I'm saying is that the Japanese, in 1941 were a steamroller, and the best thing anyone could do was get out of their way and attempt to bog them down when they over extended.

The US Navy was on the back foot, poorly equipped in theatre compared to it's opponent. The Army needed the Navy to get there to help, and the Air Force was so far away that it was relegated to some minor defensive operations in Alaska.

This is quite curious; I saw something recently on TIL indicating that normally there are more nerve endings in a female clitoris than in a male penis. This roughly translates to the top, around the urethra ... so basically this is what has happened for you. I fear for the damage that will be done to your sex life with any potential future partner; but the flipside is so complex ... societal issues like this are very daunting. I wish you luck.

It sounds like you have a big family; out of curiousity how many siblings of either sex do you have?

In my opinion; irrespective of what you think about the Greens and their policies Scott in particular represents a dimension of their maturity as a party from earlier criticisms of them as being merely a source of a protest vote (despite my high regard of Bob Brown's legacy; he was just one man) to a party that has policies broad and deep enough that they could run this country.
