In March '08 I wrote about an accident involving a traffic accident involving 3 military trucks and 2 cars.
Given our compensation culture and reactionary politicians I predicted that "our military trucks will subsequently be retro-fitted with seat belts, booster seats and Donald Duck window blinds".
So, I was delighted to read in the Indo that:
Troop-carrying trucks in the Irish Defence Forces are to be fitted with a system to protect soldiers in crashes after 40 were injured in two separate accidents on Irish roads.
Presumably the Donald Duck window blinds are on order - or maybe they are waiting for Dora the Explorer ones.
Alternatively, as a money saving alternative to window blinds they could simply park each truck in any of the capital's business parks for 20 minutes. That should be sufficient time for some jobsworth to stick a stubbornly adhesive "DON'T PARK HERE" sticker to the window.

There have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Now, I feel good, I begin to get real income.
It's all about how to choose a correct partner who utilizes your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the income with me.
You may get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
