Comments like "will say that our armed forces are the best in the world" will turn this into another patriotic "Who's the best" thread. Shame on you.

    Paintball

    Make sure you have decent ball too. I remember my friend and I playing once at night in suburbia just me and him. I saw him coming down the road so I hid behind this bush/tree. He didn't see me and proceeding to run across the street and hide on the other side of the bush I was on. I started unloading rounds. I must have fired a good 40 at him, and him at me since I scared him to death. Unfortunatley none of them hit. They all splattered on the branches He said he could taste the paint splattering through his mask but none hit.

And a note on the hurting: If you're wearing long sleaves and pants and a facemask you should be alright. The hurt is enough to make you not want to get hit again, but not enough to make you stop playing. Reloading: Fast. Unless you're like me and you forget to close the lid completely so next time you hit the dirt all your balls come flying out and you're scrambling around picking them up while your friends are hunting you :\

    In Paintball, it's obvoius you've been hit cuz of the big colorful stain on your shirt. In Tagball how do you know if someones been hit? Wouldn't a lot of people cheat? Thats the same problem I have with airsoft guns.

    Paintball

    I've only played 1v1s (until some dumb pig stole my friends gun) and it was a lot of hiding and getting the shit scared out of you when 3 rounds splat right next to your head. The best is afterwords comparing welts

I gave her a picture I found online of a guy on a computer with headphones and the devil behind him with a soviet like uniform on and it said, "A REMINDER FROM THE RECORDING INDUSTRY: WHEN YOU PIRATE MP3S, YOU'RE DOWNLOADING COMMUNISM" She liked it so much she framed it and hung it up in her office

    Starters guitar

    </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote (cybrid @ July 20 2002,22:55)</td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">I'm am currently growing a mullet to get with it (seriously).<span id='postcolor'> Poseur. Anyway I recommend Fender's "Strat Pack" which is a 10 or 15w amp with a Fender Squire which is basically an overseas made Strat. They aren't top of the line, but they are pretty cheap. You get everything you need to play: guitar, amp, cord, strings, tuner, gig bag, and a video. It runs for about $280 I think. Later when you've gotten better and you want a better sound you can always replace the pickups and get a bigger amp.

    Quote from my 51 year old female boss: "I hate hippies. Â Jane Fonda should be drug out today and hung as a traitor. What she did was unexcuseable... I am ashamed for my generation... If there's one thing I hate more than hippies, its communists."

    Uh..huh....

    Didnt any of you see that Brad Pitt/Julia Roberts movie, "The Mexican"? These drunken Mexicans were firing their guns in the air and one came down and hit his friend in the head, killing him. No ones seen it...? Damn me and my love for romantic comedies...

    Learning to drive

    In the commonwealth of Virginia you can get a permit (Drive with an adult) at 15 and a half (after a test). The schools give you the driving classwork class. At 16 and a half you can get your liscense after so many hours of behind the wheel, then a test at the DMV. Then you have restrictions on you, no more than 1 person in the car, driving cerfew, etc (No one follows that) However when you turn 18 you just go to the DMV take a test and get your liscence. Its all a huge hassle and I dont have my lisence. However my dad lives in Alabama where all you do is take a test so I might get my liscence this summer

    What to do with my life

    Well I already know a little (un peux?) French because I took a couple years of it when I lived in Germany.  I just thought it might be interesting to do service in 2 different Militaries... Uh oh I just thought of something.  What if the US calls me a traitor and sends me to jail for 20 years like John Walker Linhd Sure I'd lose the rank but it's not like Id be that high anyway.  And then when I go to join the Air Force I'd already know military lifestyle... The time thing is a problem though.  With my 1 yr break after high school then french foreign legion, then college, then airforce, I'd be 26 before before I'd be a 2nd Lt. in the airforce... Does Germany have a foreign legion?  I know more german thant french. :\ I just think it would be a very enriching expirience to have served in 2 militaries.  Except for that traitor  thing :\ I'm gonna talk to people about it, keep it in my mind. Edit: They have goofy hats. And you don't get a car until 5 yrs! Hmm...

R.I.P.<span id='postcolor'> My stomach turns upside down when I hear crap like that. Those men were doing their duty as fire fighter. They chose the profession and knew the occupational hazards. They were putting out as forrest fire for crying out loud, not saving children from a buring orphanage! Sure it is a tragic thing when people die but they don't deserve to get any more attention then some random road accident victim. I guess it is part of the post 9/11 fire fighter glorification... I can give no other explanation why some people act like that.<span id='postcolor'> I agree.
