I would but you'd probably still the idea. It wouldn't do any good because
it wouldn't shut you up... you'd say the same thing to the next guy. Your
just looking for someone that has a smaller penis than you so you can point
and make fun of. If someone has a bigger one than you then you just move on
to the next guy.

Your not an engineer because engineers don't play such games. Your a con
that parades around as an engineer. Oh wait... I shouldn't go that far. You
are an engineer, a social engineer(and your not even good at that).

That's a lot of words to say "no."

Voice of experience. How many real life-and-death firefights have you
been in? Paintball doesn't count.

Now if only we could come up with a move today that does that in our
current theater.

The guns were used in VietNam, but they were not pulling tricks like
that, and not many carried them, especially as the war wore on. (war
wore...I'll have to remember that one).

They were used in North Korea as well, but I am not sure what the name
was for those guys. Have to pull out my "Manchurian Candidate" DVD and
watch the initial scenes to see what Hollywood was referring to them as
back then. Very likely quite accurate.
