Bumpowski!

The 56th is recruiting Jug Heads that want to have fun, can laugh at themselves, laugh at everyone else, and make fun of people in a cordial and subtle way.

Interested parties must be at least 11 years of age but we prefer people over 21 years of age.  I am afraid juvenile recruits may end up getting me in trouble with the language used and topics frequently discussed on VOX and TS.

If you are interested, please send me via PM a 100 word essay on why you like jugs.  It doesn't have to be grammatically correct or conform to APA format.

Poetry about big beautiful Jugs will also be a accepted in lieu of 100 word essays.

While FSO participation is not required, we'd sure like having a coupe extra roll with us now and then.

What do you get for joining you ask?
You get unlimited access to the 56th message boards which includes Jug-Fu (TM), and funny pictures of squad members.
Endless rants, jokes, cursing, and mayhem on Vox.
Most of all you get a fun group of guys to kill virtual stuff with.

I don't like writing essays. Can I just kill 100 things in the Jug and we can call it even?  :D

You don't have to do anything but ask mate.  You are forever an honorary member :old:  However, my P-47 has a lot of carbon stains around the shell casing ejection ports.  Wash those please

 :noid :airplane: :joystick:

Seven ton avian swoops
Down on his prey. Eight
Guns flash, it's gone in a dash.

Haiku's are much more difficult, so do I make the cut?

Absolutely correct sir. I thought I had it worked out, but clearly I was not awake enough yesterday. I'll work on another one today (since I'll have all night to do nothing at work)
