Well, I have found out the meaning of jake, Julia, a friend of a certain famous person I'm not disclosing. *wink wink*

Musicbarnicle23: my dad says that jake means to fight in a really hard and brave battel and that you cant give up on any of the hard stuff

Thats the meaning.


Also, Washington is considering closing 2 important defense establishments. One is Hanscom AFB in Lexignton, one of the entrances is inside the Minuteman National Park! (or is that the only entrance, well theres probalay a another entrance for the Civilan Airport but thats it.) and the other is the Natick Soldiers Systems Center.
Let me tell you why these establishments are important.

1. Hanscom AFB is home of many top secret things, it hidden from view my trees, you can't see it from Route 128 its that secret! Becuase, it is home to the Electronic Systems Center, Air Force Research Lab, and MIT's Lincoln Labs (It's run by MIT, but the goverment has done many projects with them.) becuase of these Route 128 has become the Silicon Valley of the East Coast! They do a lot of electronics stuff like above.

Ok then, long interruption.

They are also thinking closing Natick Solider Systems Center, usually just called Natick Labs. They do a lot of R&D stuff for the Army. They are ones repsonible for the Land Warrior system.


In my opoinon, these are silly base closings, we need these 2 bases, not only for us who live here, but for the rest of country too.
