I'm sorry. I am feeling a little out of place here all of the sudden.

Admin. Help me out here. Would you please at least pretend to threaten a member of being banned, or degraded or suspended or something! I need to come down from the city-OD slowly here!

Well, I wasn't the with the first group obviously - but I do hope to be of assistance onsite (and especially in the demented sector, way-down, deep in our clandestine-oriented mind) but I do appreciate the info - maybe just an extra cup of coffee in the mornings? (black, please)
Dufferz, your little-friend scares me! (the machine gun). Flashbacks!!!

I am a fan of irony and humor.

If the pic. is too small to see clearly, it's actually Mr. Rogers with a very big boom boom stick. I think it's downright funny when I saw it.

Re: New Features: Avatars, Signatures, and more!

Now it becomes fairly, drolly, barely important to mention this - Mr. Rogers was one of the toughest heroes of WWII (?) or Korea - do not recall which now - as attested to by Lee Marvin, who knew him well and has spoken of his many "kills". The reason for the sweaters was to cover all of his tattooes from the military days. I've heard this story several times but do not recall it well enuff to relate it - just reporting.
So then, Dufferz, I'm all okay with it, neighhhbor!

I just cannot picture Mister Rogers with an M15..or what ever they used. I can't imagine him shouting or cursing..well i guess it's the same with Audie Murphy, he was tiny but saved a whole outfit on his own...

I seem to recall Lee Marvin talking about him (Mr Rogers) shouting and cursing but don't rightly recall. The story did, however, approach him being fierce and saving many. He was a very religious-thinking man but he probably had that same, rebellious period in youth that most of us go thru.
I just saw a piece of my first Audie Murphy movie the other day - guess I'm more of a Roy Roger's fan (saaaay, I wonder if there's any relation?)
