Er, ok - let me see. Since I will be mostly disrupted from all of the firing by Al Capone's (no reference to Al Amos) British Legion or Machine Gun Kelly's Rough Riders I suppose the Weak ZOCs is ok since I would be able to sneak much anyway! "AW SARGE, can you help carry me - those 45 slugs have torn me apart." "Get up you yellow bricker, get the lead out (pun) and get back in formation." (Unknown soldiers in Morgan's Rifles) The majority voted - the majority win - I will see each of you individually in the parking lot after the tourny is over. Will fight you blindfolded and one hand tied behind my back! Al=Ernie will umpire the event. Weapons will be straws and Pepsi's. Winner is the one that gets the most fluid on his opponent's face! We flip a coin and the loser has to face the sun.<img src=icon_smile_dead.gif border=0 align=middle> Maj. Bill Peters, Morgan's Rifles, American Army Commander of French Dept. |

As I am wont to do, I will now bore you with a long and possibly meaningless quote: "Anything that could not be reached by the meager wisdom of such one-sided points of view was held to be beyond scientific control: it lay in the realm of genius, <i>which rises above all rules.</i> [author's italics] Pity the soldier who is supposed to crawl among these scraps of rules, not good enough for genius, which genius can ignore, or laugh at. No; what genius does is the best rule, and theory can do no better than show how and why this should be the case. Pity the theory that conflicts with reason! No amount of humility can gloss over this contradiction; indeed, the greater the humility, the sooner it will be driven off the field of real life by ridicule and contempt." - Carl von Clausewitz, <u>On War</u>, Book Two, Chapter 2 Edited by - Mike Cox on 07/03/2002 14:49:59 |

"He who fights and runs away, Lives to ZOC another day!" OR "To ZOC or not to ZOC, THAT is the question. Whether tis nobler in the bodies of Morgan's men to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous Hessians OR to SLEEP! Ah to SLEEP!" (misqouted on purpose) OR "The apples were ripe on yonder farm, but shrapnel pierced my poor left arm, and caused me in a fit of pain, to shoot at Hessians yet again!" Maj. Bill Peters, Morgan's Rifles, American Army Commander of French Dept. |
