I've been listening to these recently and it makes TOS appear in a whole new light. 'Man to Man' is a must listen too considering the direction this thread is going...

@Torplexed: Y'know, maybe this whole human cloning thing ain't so bad after all.... :hmm:

I drove one for 3 years. You could easily get those things up to 50mph, especially on the convoy back to garrison.

An M113 or an M 113A3?
And don't tell me that you got tickets for speeding...

Actually an M113A1 mostly although we did get some A2's late in my tour.

Not even the feared German Polizei tries to stop a convoy of tanks and APC's on it's way home from the field. The smell alone would incapacitate them...

Actually I think 2006 is part of the problem. It's been 34 years since a human being walked on the moon. I think people are starting to have a hard time believing we ever went.

Thats right. I believe it is so extraordinary that people are having a hard time indeed.

WHoaa! Old thread!

Kapitan_Phillips 02-12-08 11:55 AM

I reckon this is Abraham screwing with us from above.

*shakes fist* Go on, get! :up:

SUBMAN1 02-12-08 12:17 PM

Exactly. Why did this thread come to the front with no recent posts? Weird!!! :D

Maybe Abraham found out it really was a fake! :p

STEED 02-12-08 12:24 PM

Someone voted and bobs your uncle yet another thread bought back to life, time to cap these polls with a time limit I say. :damn:

geetrue 02-12-08 12:28 PM

It was fun to see Abraham being himself again ... :up:

There is no time or distance in the spirit world ... :know:

JSLTIGER 02-12-08 12:43 PM

Yet another long-dead thread resurrected...I wonder who's behind it!:hmm:

Konovalov 02-12-08 12:44 PM

Is it possible someone voted in the poll to bump it to the front page? :hmm:
