You know, I'm thinking here how much Texans are just a bunch of really tall Hobbits.

Actually I think he should have had his and tossed the other to his "friend".

There was already evidence of tension in the relationship, yes.

I thought this was a "Hold my ....where did it go?" thread.

It's near impossible to prime ionto a M112 block of C-4 with a gun "and" a beer in yer hand !

Being a fan of the tanker's shoulder holster, I don't generally have that problem. But don't ya just hate it wnen you've got a can of beer in one hand and a M67 frag grenade in the other, and get them mixed up when you try to pop off the pull-tab...?

Perhaps my sense of humor is a little dry for your taste. It was meant as a satiric remark.

Still, it was his last COLD beer. Perhaps his defense attorney should have used that as a mitigating factor with the jury. Surely, life imprisonment is too much for killing some lowlife who'd take your last COLD beer.

I vaguely recall "Jim" from "Taxi" making a point saying that he wasn't mad at his friend Bucky for taking the last
mushroom, and not because Bucky was so wasted from that last mushroom, he's the one that fell off the cliff...

There was an inmate at a correctional facility in Vermont within the last year. He also noticed the lack of beer, so he left to go buy a 30 pack and some smokes.

He got caught breaking back in.
