Thanks Eghad, now the next time I take a ninja pic like that, I'm going to have to bust out the camo sticks and borrow some camo netting from work just to keep you happy.

Found an old photo where I was camoed up



So don't think I won't do it!

Taken at JRTC back in February 2001 if you were wondering why I'm an E-4 instead of an E-6 in the photo.

Of course I was happy. You may note that I have an M4 with 'da switch' in my hands.

Happiness is a selector switch that rotates past semi.

You can't even see Spiff's face under the balaclava, I bet he's grinning like an idiot!

And that is a MILES transmitter on the barrel, the blank adaptor is the yellow thing in front. Real rounds would be better, but not when the enemy is actually the 1/509th PIR from Fort Polk.

Ha! I know you're lying, you were in the military! For the neophytes out there, the blank adapter is a vented plug which lets enough gas pressure build up to let the weapon fire in semi and burst mode when using blanks. Without it, you have a single-shot rifle that must be cocked everytime it is fired. MILES is the military version of Laser Tag, so when we fight simulated battles, we know who got shot (there is a new digital version out that I'm using this week that shows who shot who and can track the battle via GPS technology, but the vest is soooo heavy compared to the old one).

And how exactly does suiting up for a ninja photo count as work, Spiff?

The larger the "Mass", the larger the "Center of Mass". How could one miss that target? Or is it just 4-5 layers of body armor?
