This just gets me on so many different levels.
And no, I’m not proud of it. But there it is.

Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”--General Sir Charles Napier "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Amazon AssociateFor the Effort!Winnar!

I should’ve known, but you really are shameless, aren’t you… LMAO!
Some good firm support there. Could put Playtex outta bidness!
B2
I’ll reserve my comments until we hear from the usual gaggle of overwrought, big haired, bra burning harpies…you know who you are. Best
And I just know you googled “Femtroopers.”
I did, too.
Snake – you say “big haired” like it’s a bad thing or something. Big hair is back baby.
And here’s the answer to the whole Fembots thing:
http://www.austinpowers.com/
Groovy baby, yeah!
“These boots were made for walkin’…. and that’s just what they’ll do…. one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you…”
I love that scene from Austin Powers! Such a great use of the song too. Maybe if you’re real nice you can get the Missus to dress up in one of these for Halloween: http://www.hollywood-costumes.com/austinpowers/html/fembot.html
AFSis – I love the A.P. movies in general – they are so clever and funny and silly and stupid – all the things that make a really fun movie.
And just so Snake doesn’t think we are the “…usual gaggle of overwrought, big haired, bra burning harpies…” this is for the boys:
http://www.beyoncephotos.net/displayimage.php?album=389&pos=20
Hmmm. I look at that picture and it’s so silly that it makes me giggle. Good thing we women aren’t as predictable (or ruled by hormones) as you male types.
Liquid armor?
I’m all for it. Especially as well, um, demonstrated as it is here.
Kristen, One question… Hormone replacement therapy for you “female types” of a certain age, good, bad, indifferent or I don’t know? Best
PS, Agreed, those pictures Kris linked to are way over the top… god love them… of course I did’t giggle, thats a girly thing.
Wow, who knew Star Wars fans had such great abs?
SE, you are so bad! But I must say I enoy the spectacle wrought by your baiting ways.
P.S. Thanks for not including me in the “…the usual gaggle of overwrought, big haired, bra burning harpies.” *batting eyelashes*
In Kristen’s defense, I must point out that she said we’re not as “ruled by hormones,” not that we don’t have hormones…
I know, it’s a subtle difference and men don’t do subtlety, but do try to follow here, okay? *wicked grin*
Not ruled by hormones? You’ve never been at my house when the three of ‘em get going. Whether you guys are ruled by hormones, or whether you merely use them to rule, they’re definitely in the mix – unlike us though, yours make you less likely to be agreeable
Oh, and Eric – from what I saw at ComicCon, the washboard abs thing is hardly a stereotype.
Lex: “…unlike us though, yours make you less likely to be agreeable…”, because men are so perfect. And it’s the uniform on the little FemTrooper….
Ah, a brewing tempest in a fembot. I will say this in defense of my gender (and it’s not much): We are, at least, predictable. Sometimes drearily predictable. Note that I did not say “dependable.”
The ladies chez moi? Not so much. As always YMMV.
Ahhhhh,
My favorite Sci-Fi genre: Lingerie and Laser Cannons… it don’ get no better than that…..
As far as the stormtroopers are concerned. You might to check out the 501st Legion here:
http://www.501st.com/index.php
These guys seem to have both a LOT of time as well as MONEY on their hands….
respects,
AW1 TIm
FbL, I hate to disabuse you but you were included in the front ranks of the “usual gaggle of overwrought big haired, bra burning harpies”… No personal insult intended of course. Best
is this the “future force” concept for the IDF?
Nice try, SE. But since I had already commented before you said you were going to wait to hear from the “usual gaggle of overwrought big haired, bra burning harpies,” the logic falls apart. So there!
*slow flounce as she walks away*
I wuz wundering where my Guard Chief had gotten off to… Gotta talk to her about pitchin’ liberty in her 782 Gear…
(How do ya think we get ‘Zilla to behave hisself when he’s inside the wire?)
Oh no you don’t, miss Fuzzy Bear Lioness
, no fair “flouncing out” and leaving the rest of us who WERE included in the whole “gaggle” thing – and yes I do know who I am…and I stand proudly in the group, big hair and all…no comment on the bra thing, but…
Harpies? Come on Snake, you can do better than that one…bait bait bait us honey.
The Wisdom of Lex…
Lex’s shameless tastes led to some amusing conversation today regarding some of the differences between men and women. I posited that one distinction was in the extent to which each gender allows hormones to rule. But Lex offered this smile-ind …….
Been a while since we’ve had an old-fashioned flounce around here. Seems as good a reason as any.
Is it just me?? Am I getting paranoid?? Or do I notice that the word “bait” is unusually popular parlance in these here parts today?
BTW presuming to be included in the ?
Is it just me?? Am I getting paranoid?? Or do I notice that the word “bait” is unusually popular parlance in these here parts today?
BTW presuming to be included in the “usual gaggle of overwrought big haired, bra burning harpies,” let me tell you, Snake Eater, I wouldn’t dare burn mine…uh uh…. no way… no how….. (Darn, I wish I had an icon that batted its eyelashes…..)
So chew on some snake while you ponder that one, big boy
By the way, is there any chance to change that from “bra burning harpies” to “bra burning hippies”?
I just missed those, growing up, and often lamentit.
I meant to type: lament it.
Darn broken backspace key…
?
“bra burning hippies”
I just missed those, growing up, and often lamentit.
Just for the record, I was there. I was SO there!
You did indeed miss some wondrous times…
This is serious, folks. We should consider the tactical consequences of body armor optimized for navel shots. I have heard that the tequila ones can be quite deadly.
FbL, Point taken…that said I would like to respectfully request from the Lexter permission to revise and extend my original remarks as follows: “I’ll reserve my comments until I hear from the REST of the usual gaggle of overwrought, big-haired, bra burning harpies…you know who you are.”
Lex, Lament not, you missed nothing except the opportunity to contract a STD from some clap-traped,drug addled,unwashed, skank Hippie Sh..bag. Best
PS, Michelle you are included by definition the august group of babes.
Gee, I wish I knew what he was really thinking
What? There’s a gaggle of overwrought, big-bra’d, hair-burning harpies around here?
And all this time I’d no idea…
He does have a nasty side….that he does
Explains the name I geuss….just nasty
Nah, the name comes from eating snakes, which are found on the menu in the kinds of dark and dangerous places where brave men are sent to shuffle off the mortal coils of really bad people.
The nasty part we had to train him for.
Lex, the line about you being ruled by the hormones of the females in your house made me laugh. I know that my husband would heartily agree.
Snake Eater, when I threw up a quick comment here, probably the last response in the world that I expected was a question about hormone-replacement therapy. Right after I accused men of being predictable, there you go being utterly unpredictable. Haven’t given the question much thought yet – I’m still in my baby-making years. We have one and we’re hoping for the blessing of more. Oh, and I’m glad you don’t giggle. I’m sure that all of Lex’s male readers are manly-men types.
Ahh well,
I have to admit that, like the Country song goes, I like “my women a little on the trashy side”….. big hair, Madonna material girl outfits and lotssa eye shadow are on my “to like” list….. Especially girls that like shooterts, guns and pick up trucks. Think Gretchin Wilson and you’ve got it covered:)
As to the “bra burning daze”, well, i was there and it weren’t nuthin’ especial…. since most of those doing the burnin’ and speechifyin were not the type I’d want to try to “get close to” if you get my drift…..
In the interests of full disclosure, I consider myself somewhat of an expert on the female psyche and hormonal harpie syndrome. I have 5 younger sisters, a wife, and 2 lovely daughters. My life could be considered as an island of testosterone awash in an estrogen sea. Thank God for bourbon… fast cars… guns…. and heavy metal. After surviving childhood amongst 6 females (mom included) it’s NO WONDER I went into Naval Aviation….. high speed, explosives and adrenaline…. what a great combination…..
Lex… it’s Okay to drink….. honest…
Respects,
AW1 Tim
I dunno. I find that the armor leaving the navel-shot launcher exposed disturbs me. I mean that in a good way.
Tim, your comment had me laughing outloud. One thing, though: I doubt Lex needs the encouragement to drink, LOL!
And Snake Eater, the more you try, the worse it looks.
Just a hint for future reference: a good man knows when to cede the field to fight another day… 
Let’s talk about the picture, not each other, mmkay? The chest protector might exaggerate, but that’s a yummy tummy, no doubt.
Hey, I thought we were having some fun with words…mind games you know joshing and all that. Apparently some ceased having fun and took offence. That’s not how the game is played in my neighborhood, once in you give and take in full measure. To those who took offence my deepest apologies. Now off to my cave for some snake tartare. My reguards to all especally Michelle and Kristen… Best
Never can tell with this crowd, SE. They’ll have you posting pics of unshaven hunks carrying kittens, before you know it, and thanking them for the opportunity
Bouncy… flouncy…. flopsy….
Yeah. That about covers it.
No big hair that- it’s *so* 80′s.
I think you’re safe Snake Eater, its all in fun……..although I must say your nom de plume does conjure up some interesting imagery
YAY!! Just noticed – its back! Thanks Lex, you’re a good man!
SE, not a bit offense was taken here. Believe me, you’ll know when I’m offended!
Always in good fun, especially when pics of sexy ladies and gents are in the mix.

Snake Eater, I wasn’t offended. I like to tease people and I like to be teased. It’s all good.
