Best Quotes of 2005 (1st half)
Here are the finalists. Please vote. I think the public nature of the semifinal polls discouraged some from voting, so this will be a secret ballot. You may vote for as many or as few as you would like. Winner gets a prize.

Did you kill them in the Fulda like you planned?

How do I deal with pain management?
I think about all those that didn’t make it back.
And the pain eases.
I think about those who did return but have lost arms and legs.
And my pain shrinks.
I think about all those kids that are missing fathers and the pain they deal with daily.
My pain all but abates.
I think no matter how bad I feel I’d do it all over again, in a New York minute, and I would.
And of course there’s Motrin for the real shitty days…

I like, "Stop his foot! Gouge his eye! Hit him in the face with entrenching tool! Bronco stomp his head! Move out and draw fire!"
Plus my goal is not to end up sitting on top of him, my goal is to end up standing in a puddle of what was him.

You may even be better looking than I am.
BUT YOU HAVE CROSSED THE LINE! If there is not a rule on blasphemey and heresy on this forum, there should be. I will now research the Admin handbook to determine with which high crimes I may formally charge you before the TS and the other Admins and the High Court of SOG.
Be expecting my Writ of SFus Corpus post haste and forthwith.
BamBam will quite obviously be a witness for the prosecution and a member of the jury.
It's an OUTRAGE! An OUTRAGE Yer Honor!

ONE! ONE! You get one chance and if you fook it up, we kill you and bury your worthless body in the grease pit behind the messhall. If you have a puppy, we kill it too.
Now go do PT.

9 of 10 finalists are admins, and all 10 are QPs. Brown-nosers!

And here they come down the home stretch! Team Sergeant is in the lead, followed by NDD and Jack Moroney. This could be an exciting finish if people get off their asses and vote . . .

Still waiting on the Oban report.

Excellent point, TR. Absent a prompt review in acceptable form, the prize will be less cool. You know, like a single box of Winchester .45 FMJ.
