Glad you approve of the selection. I was worried on that account.
Now before you start thinking about retaliation, I suggest you drop this matter and call us even. After all, that was quite the mortar round you lobbed at my boy Morgan. Though we may appear to be newbs to this forum, let me assure you, we are season, grizzled, veterans of bombing tactics. We’ve been bombing each other for (almost) years. This forum has simply allowed us to call a truce and consolidate our war efforts towards a common goal rather than at each other. We now have each other’s back. What is done unto one, you’ve done to the other. You slap Morgan, you’ve just slugged me in the crotch. And I don’t take that standing up (usually I roll into the fetal position and wheeze for a minute or so).
At the risk of putting this forum on some FBI watch list, we’ve got a dirty bomb. A Weapon of @$$ Destruction (a WAD, if you will). To put this in a parlance that I think you can appreciate, We’re in the supported prone position. We’ve scanned our sector, and are awaiting the word from the tower to pull the trigger. You sir, are the tower. Please, give us that word. We anxiously await. And don’t sneeze, or anything like that. It might be mistaken for The Word. You know how jumpy it can be in the foxhole.
Anything you want to add to this Morgan?

"Well, here I am, anonymous, all right. With guys nobody really cares about. They come from the end of the line, most of them, small towns you never heard of: Pulaski, Tennessee; Brandon, Mississippi; Pork Bend, Utah; Wampum, Pennsylvania. Two years' high school's about it. Maybe if they're lucky, a job waiting for them back in a factory. But most of 'em got nothing. They're poor. They're the unwanted. Yet they're fighting for our society and our freedom. It's weird, isn't it? They're the bottom of the barrel, and they know it. Maybe that's why they call themselves grunts, 'cause a grunt can take it, can take anything. They're the best I've ever seen, Grandma. The heart and soul." - From Platoon
Just say The Word and that mortar round fired my way will be like a fart in the wind compared to our WAD. BWahahahahahah! Or as Mr. Rick would say. Enjoy the ride fellas!
That said, I'll just sit back and enjoy.
Big Red One, this is Blackbeard Actual. Intel received and HVT identified. My teams is inbound to your coordinates and we are carrying payload. Give us the word and we'll light 'em up.
Here lies Walt and Morgan all blown to hell. They lit the fuse, but weren't quick enough.
