I figured it was some sort of cold weather dysentery problem; the WW2 equivalent of Montezuma's Revenge.

Sigh, and here I was thinking I was so witty, and no-one noticed... Sad [:(]

Manny: You're killing me!...a few rumors and speculations but nothing confirmed by you yet! 

This reminds me of "Saving Private Ryan" where the troops have an ongoing bet as to where Tom's Hanks' characters (I forget the name) hometown is...Scene: The two guys are about to duke-it-out at that radar installation...Tom says, "So what's the amount up to now..."

It is my understanding that MR has taken another "involuntary" leave from the forums.

Re: What is a "Manstein's revenge"??????

Well, I wanted my name to be military related.  And I like belt-fed weapons.  So naturally...

 

All the cymbols on my drumset are Sabians.  And i like their logo, so...

 

I wish mine was a bit more creative.

Re: What is a "Manstein's revenge"??????

When I was hired by the state of Nevada a very "officious" admin person, (not a cop) pontificated about my role as an "agent" of the Gaming Control Board.

After 30 years in law enforcement I'm not really impressed by titles. Even now every time I ID myself I have to smile (and stifle a laugh) when I say I'm Agent Gray.

So it was a natural thing (for me) to imagine Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones dressed in black, chasing bad aliens.

Re: What is a "Manstein's revenge"??????
Schnobs was my nick name in High School and the military because Southern Drill Instructors had a hard time with Private Schnabel so it was Private Alphabet or Private Schobs or other words I can't user here.  I remember being called Sports Fan and it didn't mean that!  Hey not a Souther Hater born in Ivring Texas.
