scott_harpell Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I would still put every cent I own on the 'stoner'. Â Without knowing me? Seems like a pretty haphazard way to gamble. Â The funny thing is you actually think I give a shit. Â No... it really isn't. Â Don't worry I don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott_harpell Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 ...but I wouldn't mind you putting money where your mouth is. I am sure the 'stoner' would oblige you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotterdamerung Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 For the fashion conscience warriors among you. Â That is indeed one of the older Suunto Vectors still ticking after 6 years of continuous use. Â The pants are Royal Robbins Tactical 5.11 series (EXCELLENT PANTS!) Â The shirt is TNF UV protectant long sleeve. (Ex Officio is better) Â Shoes, Adidas trail runners with Smartwool hiking socks. Â ARMS SIRR M4 with 10.5 inch barrel and pop up front and rear sites from Armalite. Aimpoint red dot scope for low light or reflexive shooting. CQD sling and forward machine pistol style grip on rails. Â Motorola programmable radio with earpiece. Â Smith Razorbacks complete the ensemble.

Off_White Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Besides, that's the new kinder gentler shoot-the-dogs-not-the-guy good citizen Gotterdamerung. I think he's feeding his adrenaline jones elsewhere and doesn't need to try and wring his fix from an online board. Â great photo btw.

JoshK Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Holy crap! I actually called the royal robbins correctly  They are indeed very comfortable...I can't imagine wearing much besides that type of clothing in a desert environment.  My friends vector (of that exact same model) finally died this past month. He had REI replace it for a brand new one.  So on a serious note (well, as serious as a thread like this could get), how well do the UV protective shirts work? And are they comfortable when very sweaty? I'm sick of the really thin long underwear shirt for the summer since you get burned through the thing anyway, and it's hot. I'm wondering if something more airy like that would be the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshK Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 What is the CPA building? Wouldn't that mural be seen as a bit...imperialistic? or was it actually put up by the Iraqis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotterdamerung Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 The mural is in Saddams main palace in Baghdad. It is a tribute to the troops fighting overseas and leans heavily on the image of the Twin Towers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â 1 - Coalition Provisional Authority. 2 & 3 - I don't care and I doubt the Iraqis do either. Â I bet the large number of Iraqis who do not want us there care. If we are trying to project the image of helping, and not taking over, that doesn't help a whole lot. Â If it's inside a coallition headquarters, that is a different matter. Remmeber when the statue of saddam was being toppled and some moron put an American flag on his head? That wasn't exactly a public relations win.

gotterdamerung Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 There is really no such thing as large numbers of Iraqi's who don't want us over there. More like some journalists who want to come home and their careers depend on them making up news as they see fit. The mural is in the CPA HQ, but that should change come June 30th.

Skeezix Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 My weapon of choice for home protection is a 12"-long piece of rubber-coated electical cable that I found in the Skagit River while fishing near Damnation Creek. It's about 1-1/2" thick and heavy. Fit's nicely in my hand. If somebody comes in my house threatening my family, I'm going to whomp them upside they pointy haid. --But if my 3 year old or six year old sons get a hold of it, they won't shoot one another accidently.
