If you see me across the room or standing outside by myself, maybe having a smoke, and I suddenly look to my left and right, I'm probably making sure the coast is clear to rip a clapper.

Gen Eric Shinseki was fired for saying the U.S. would need several hundred thousand troops to control Iraq. 1:50 was the troop to citizen ratio, put the bill over 300,000. The U.S. tried to do it with 145K, peaked at 170K. There are 10,000,000 Americans in LA County. 1:50 = 200,000 troops.

Perfect summarization.
