Hmmm...somehow Operation "Pink Spring" just doesn't sound right for a nuclear attack on Central and Western Europe.

This machine is the equivalent of a $600 hammer being purchased for $1.95 at Walmart.

Actually, the plural of "penis" is "penes," or else "penises."
Apparently PENIS is also an acronym for Proton-Enhanced Nuclear Induction Spectroscopy, or so says Dictionary.com's Acronym Finder.

Well, I got "Garden Heaven" for my naval strike against Canada. But all "other Asian countries" had better fear my intercontinental missile strike; aka "Determined Hat."

Doesn't "justice" imply some kind of proportional punishment, an action taken specifically to balance the consequences of a misdeed? Isn't "infinite justice" a horrible oxymoron? Oh -- The Art of Naming Operations. Maybe "infinite" is appropriate because the "war" as yet has no boundaries, no ultimate objectives. If civil liberties are going to suspended so long as there are Enemies of Democracy at large, well then, the enemies of democracy are already in control.
