I'm assembling my army to attack taterguy and will need all of you who have military experience
of any kind. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines. Hell, I'll take Eagle Scouts.

So, post here and I'll send you your signing bonus.

1. Does girl scouts count?
Of course I also worked at NIH and am a veteran of vicious political battles..That ought to give me an edge..I learned all about the art of stabbing someone in the back!

3. Sure.

The Army of three will probably need some snickerdoodles after a long day of pretending to be important.

20. I make primitive weaponry never even heard of before.
I make this weaponry from scratch. It was all designed during various months through the years while I had PMS AND PMDD and my sick, twisted, demented, deranged, pevvy mind thought about revenge being a dish best served from the depths of my depraved mind while I have PMDD.

These are some of the materials I use in my primitive, weaponry:
:bluebox: guitar strings
:bluebox: recycled and revamped fox traps(these traps will hurt no more foxes EVAH)
:bluebox: some shed cat claws I found and saved
:bluebox: the teeth of small children who lost their baseballs even after they savagely bit me in an attempt to reclaim them
:bluebox: 10 penny nails
:bluebox: bits of shredded heavy duty plastic that I saved after "therapy sessions" of shredding plastic as part of my failed anger management plan
:bluebox: baseball bats
:bluebox: rusty metal pieces I saved when my metal detecting attempts proved unsuccessful
:bluebox: sharpened metal electrical box knockouts that I turned into homemade Bo Shuriken ninja death stars
:bluebox: an arsenal of sharp knives collected from various locations around the world
:bluebox: my double edged customized machete
:bluebox: my criminally insane depraved mind
:redbox: me

I will donate it ALL to such a good cause as defending my good buddy, Midlo.

32. Tractor Pilot
While working in the Negev Desert, we used to have dog fights on tractors, throwing over ripe tomatoes at one another. Also, ground-to-tractor warfare - bastards driving by, finishing work early, ran a guantlet through a tomato barrage.

38. How 'bout Black Ops?
I'm a member of the super secret XR3 Unit. We don't operate with any branch and report directly to the shadow government in Wyoming. We're the guys who found Saddam hiding in North Africa after the invasion and put him in that spider hole for the regular army to find.

I can bring you high resolution photos of TLD force location and heavy weapons disbursement in a 12" X 18" black and white format.
Extra charge for color.

I'm also quite a good shot with a long gun, if that counts for anything.

I also know how to string a bow and shoot arrows.

I know how to use a katana, and I know some Aikido.

Plus, I have relatives in the military.

50. Not military, but
as I also drive a minivan, cook on a gas grill, and at one time employed a "Brenda-type" person, I feel we are sisters-in-arms.

I will volunteer my husband -- he was an eagle scout and usually does what I tell him, sometimes.

57. I'm an Army brat. Does that help?
I'm a quick learner and I have a handful of family members that I can consult with on a regular basis so I think that should qualify me for something. Besides, every well oiled military machine will need support staff. Can I be in charge of the wine shipments? I'll guard it with my life.
