Sorry Cyphen[xx(], and here you are trying to get better[:)]!  Live in Sedona huh?  I can't wait to play up there...maybe along Broken Arrow trail???[:D] Hope you Get well soon bubba!

Bolt Overide: Engineering is cool!  Someone has to make a toaster (something practical and normally less lethal) out of junk like E=MC2. BTW, what in the heck does Bolt Overide mean?  Can I shorten it to BO[:O]? Just kidding[:D][:D]

You know, I'll have to agree with The Eradicator, give people guns & computers and there is no telling where they'll go (or what they'll do when they get there). God I LOVE the USA!  Hey Jason (Nelson), what do you think of: 'the airsoft artist formally known as Riggs'?

Hmmmmmmmm, better lay low after this one...

This is so...special...to me.  Look at my creation here!  17 posts about my hair!!!
I am unaware of anyone in Aliens by the name of Riggs, and it is a fabulous film.
The Riggs callsign may be easier to say, but trust me...every time I hear it "The Hair" images haunt me.  You'd run from it, too.
How this became a physics or age campaign is well beyond my capacity, but don't let me stop you!

Anyway, having finally "confessed" I feel better...

Well come on with it Pancho...I can truly use the humor.  I think I'm going blind looking at Hypothalamus maps.

You need to watch the movie again if you don't remember the name "Riggs" from Alien 2!?  "Riggs" was the one that was the cry-baby that said "That's just great man! Now what are we going to do!? It's over! its over man!"  Thats when the he was to get a grip from Ripley and to look up the plans to the station on the planet that they were on.  Did that help you any? formally known as Riggs?

Lak...Or should I call you ex-lak?  hehehehe
What I think of the "The airsoft artist formally known as Riggs"?

Humm?.....Well he's a good guy! Were's his underware a little tight!? but I think that he could still hold up in a firefight!?

Just so long as he does not start saying..."That's just great!  What are we going to do man!?"

As for Bolt Overide....Just don't fall on anymore rocks!  Dive into a tree or bush!

The whiner in Aliens is Hudson, not Riggs.  I assure you that the only films I know more about than Aliens is the Star Wars lineup.

ex-Lak??  Hey, that's pretty good!  Too bad my last name isn't hyphenated...like Koerte-Strome huh?  Anywho(my girlfriend's word), I thought Corp. Riggs was the 'cool/Smart/Busted up but alive at the end' Marine?  We should ask Bolt_Overide, he's got the cool the brain!  

Dam-bit, your going to make me dig up that movie!  Oh well, I've been meaning to crunch the Aliens DVD to MPEG4.... Dang, so close to a theoretical treatment for metastasizing cancer and what do I have my computer doing?  Crunching a 10+-year-old movie!

Oh the humanity...wait…I know, we'll blame Mr. Nelson!  That's my story officer & I'm sticking to it!

lak, a "bolt overide" is a malfucntion on an m16 series rifle where the round does not feed properly and gets stuck on top of the bolt, its a very rare occurance but when it happens its very very difficult to fix.

Pain is your friend, it lets you know you are still alive. Over coming pain is just a question of mind over matter, if you dont mind, it dont matter.

Roger that.  Hicks is the banged up guy who lives at the end.  (And probably one of the most used callsigns in airsoft!!)

That's Affirm.  I remember now: "Hudson sir, he's Hicks"
Wow Paco, I bet you can shred through a spreadsheet!

Hmmmm, was Riggs a character of some merit in the Lethal Weapon series of movies?

Bolt, we just called that a jam...'but that was back in W.W. Nam when I was a tail gunner on an SR-71...' (Quote used with permission from Mr.E. civilian GAU-8 Instructor extraordinaire).

Thanks for the clarification,
LAK

He was the main character, played by Mel Gibson - "Martin Riggs".
