Tony, it would be a WONDERFUL experience for you guys to go do. Besides, you can get a wicked awesome cheesesteak and see some sites. I keep telling ya man, do this kind of stuff while you can.

Can we PLEASE not get into that debate again? I am a face character in EVERY costume I currently do so maybe my perspective is different but this topic is taking that dangerous turn that the one on the Legion board did. We really don't want to go there. Bottom line, every Garrison is different. And sometimes there are different ways of doing things for certain events. Jeremy, trust me in that once you get your TK id and troop with your Garrison you will find your "character".

Sometimes we play "in character" sometimes we are more laid back. Yeah, That's Tony raising the roof.

Nice!

I dig all of it. Simple and clean seems to feel less claustrophobic to me. On the other side, the ones done up with all the fans and padding and mic tip speakers are REALLY cool.

We are in the Merry Christmas camp in my house but I agree. A happy holidays to all.

I have been on and off a ton today and yeah, it is bad. Even with the remember me on, I have to log in every single time I get on. It doesn't matter if it was five minutes or five hours. ninja edit- I have used Firefox and IE6 for this too.

I will have to remember to hit Tony with mine a few times on our next troop!

Amen!

Here is a thought. If you wrap a blaster or any firearm up in a blanket or some other such way it is a concealed weapon. Around here, that will get you in more trouble then just having it laying on the back seat. I can't speak for overseas, but here in the U.S.A. it seems numbers and statistics can be manipulated to suit any purpose you want them too. So to me, they pretty much are meaningless. Nathan brings up an excellent point. Here is a great example: There were a few moms talking in one of my daughter's activities. They were discussing Christmas presents and what not, Halo 3 and other assorted "shooter" games were openly mentioned as being gifts, DVD's and toys being purchased were "shooting" and "battle" related. And of course, there have been conversations over time about such shows as CSI, Law and Order, 24, and Prison Break. When some one asked about the recent shootings, (and let's not forget we are still a bit moody about Virgina Tech) the quick answers were ban all the guns, people are so violent and crazy, and so on. My children, while are all about having fun and playing "SG-1, shoot the replicators" and other imagination games, they have also seen and heard first hand what my firearms actually do. Milk jugs of water and stuff are very impressive for that. My oldest has not yet been hunting with me but has been up close and personal with Bambi when we have come back home. Yet, they have friends that their only experience is shooting and getting shot in a video game. Reality is lost to them. Oh, and for what it is worth, until I am able to get a case long enough for my Hyper-Firm MG-42, it sits openly in the back seat. I have enough common sense that if I get pulled over, I will put the car in park, take out the keys, put both hands out the window with the keys.

That sucks that you have to deal with this kind of indeed, silly crap. The dude seriously needs to be smacked around like the lil bee-otch that he is. Messing with a cop has to qualify for a dum-bass of the year award right?

WOW! Awesome! And I have to say that to keep going after a problem just makes it that much cooler.

I think it is way cool awesome. I would have to think that if they say it's one of the actual props then I have little doubt that it is.

Ummm.....Radioshack? Seriously, if they don't have them in your local store try online. They still were avaliable like three weeks ago.

Kudos man! My godson is Type I as well. That is awesome that you talked to the kids and took off the bucket.
