Ear infection mixed with guard training, nothing too bad. I just felt like **** for the last couple of days.

So , Chickenboy, like how many more threads are you going to create from which I'm excluded? I'm not even playing against you and I'm being kept in the dark. And sir, would you be so kind , when you create yet ANOTHER "Steve keep out" thread, please do me the cortesey of putting it in the AAR section (where it belongs) so that several times a day when I look at the War room , yet again I'm kept from seeing THE NUMBER ONE THREAD!!!!!! [:D]




(Please insert sarcasm smiley here , whenever they get around to making one).
I've already started an AAR for our nacent game, gaijin. It's called 'liquidating the gaijin'. Just to be clear-you're the gaijin. I'm planning on liquidating you and everyone that looks like you.

Nothing personal. [:'(]

Plan away, CB, plan away. And what should mine be, pray tell? "Plucking the chicken, choking the chicken,making the Chicken stew,frying the chicken,making a chicken sandwich, how to cook a chicken,deboning a chicken?", and of course the list goes on, and on and on. [:D]

Please keep in mind that Col. Sanders is one of my field commanders. [:D]

I have to be proficient with the L85, I've got some limited (unoficial) experience of handling a few other weapons like AKs and M16s but I'm nowhere near qualified to do even basic drills let alone fire them.

IIRC employers can't refuse to let me have time to vote during the working day. I've been off work for every election so far since I joined the RAF, I guess it would depend on how busy we were at work.

I was trained in the firing of the old SLR, 9mm Browning pistol, Sterling SMG, 40mm Bofors, Limbo ASW mortar, Polaris SLBM and SA80 rifle. In that order. Now I have one of these:

I've been trained with the SA80 and L85. I learnt some basics with other weapons when I was working with the armourers. Enough that I could check the weapons were clear of rounds before I put them back on the racks but nothing else really. I'm deadly with a GS though [;)]
I never really got into the whole gun thing, so I wasn't too interested in some of the more exotic stuff that they saw. I remember the look they gave me when they were discussing weapons and I said they're all just guns [:D]

It's all Winston's fault with his insistence that every airfield should be a stronghold of fighting airmen [:D]

You *did* walk into this without editing your last post....

But, if you want to write up about 'choking the chicken' on the AAR boards, be my guest. Seems a little bit creepy to me though...[;)]

The center column article on this morning's Wall Street Journal was about all about the Loony Party and their history. Considering the alternatives, a vote for "Mad Cow Girl" for faux cabinet post of "The Ministry of Blatant Lies and Big Fibs" sounds downright appealing...
