Post by: GRUNHERZ on August 10, 2004, 05:31:40 PM: Good point Pongo, we all know you cant oppose the Iraq war without first joining the Iraqi insuregent forces... Will you team up with the Sunnis in Fallujah or Sadr's boys in Najaf?

OK, just explain what you meant.. :)

Only way I would pick up an M16 again is if you try to get into canada again.

You wouldn't pick up an M16. You COULD, but you wouldn't.

if you ever considering it let me know. work not only in iraq and even if you against coalition attack on iraq you wouldnt be assisting that its already been done and its over. psds need good drivers and there you are keeping noncombatants from getting attacked by terrorist insurgent whatever. i know plenty of aussie brit and canuck who are doing that type of work right now if you ever need a point of contact with one let me know. you may be a bleeding liberal but they dont grow wussies in the ppli. :)

well I take it back. would love to spend an afternoon on the range again.

GH and funky and others would hunt me down and kill me anonymous, and justifiebly so. Maybe if I get canned from my great paying job for too much BBS posting. Now my fights are with ASP.net and C#.net.

Or..for those of you who have read "Last of the Dog Team" maybe if I got terminal cancer and had a year to live.

I've taken many French Canadians. I grew up in Maine.

The last was big boned, though, so I gave her a fake name.

What did you call her? Did she have a "Pongo was here" tatoo on her right breast?

The stock is completely wrong for an m16.

The barrell is too long for an M4.

The barrell grip looks like it is off of an m16a1 but it's far too short.

I don't see a brass deflector either.

Now, I'm drunk but I don't remember an angle for the magazine reciptle and the handle looks funky also.

Those "big boned" french ladies are our first line of defence.

Grun, we have lots of oil up here. It ain't for sale, we use it to light our BBQ's, do art projects, keep bird populations down, and sometimes we even use it as a fuel.

As a matter of fact, here in Alberta, each and every homeowner has thier own oil well in thier back yard.

Now, natural gas is a different story all together. Only the rich and powerful get to have a gas well in addition to thier oil well.

Come on up :)

bring beer and wings though.
