    The Swiss should spend less time on the watch and direct their attention to a compass.

    ... the soldiers, who were carrying assault rifles but no ammunition.
    Good thing there aren't any Cajuns in Liechtenstein...

    I think the kids from Red Dawn could take Switzerland.

    I guess if they had run into trouble they could have pretended by making "POW" and "BAM BAM" noises.

    "It's not like they stormed over here with attack helicopters or something," he said.
    That was in the original plans; but the Swiss Secretary of Defense (Olaf Tweedlemirer), who fills in part time when business is slow at the Swiss watch factory, forgot that two important ingredients for any successful military invasion is ammunition and gas.

    Liechtenstein, which has about 34,000 inhabitants and is slightly smaller than Washington DC, doesn't have an army.
    You don't need one when confronted with this. Certainly would scare the crap out of me and send me scurrying back over the border.

    I bet Germany said the same thing about Poland in '39.

    Maybe the WMD's are hidden there.
    I've been to dinner at Jimmy Buffet's house, and I've eaten it at a homeless shelter. And there's great joy and harrowing terror to be found in both places.

    Neighboring Liechtenstein would have probably made Swiss cheese of them anyway.

    How did they march just over a mile in without crossing the border on the opposite side of the country and "invading" the next country?
