    Notice anything strange with this picture?

    I was talking about the clips. But, Eric Funkenbusch wrote: If you mean that there are no clips in any of the weapons, that's normal. You don't want any rounds going off in marches like that... Maybe he's right, but I thought it was a bit odd with the caption "showing their readiness for war". Even if they didn't have rounds in the clips, I guess I expected them to have clips in their guns, like in these pictures (in Palestine): http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/030207/170/37viy.html[^] http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/030204/170/36x5a.html[^] ------------------------------------------ "Isn't it funny how people say they'll never grow up to be their parents, then one day they look in the mirror and they're moving aircraft carriers into the Gulf region?" - The Onion

        You would think they would put the clips in their guns, I mean it's not like you have to fill the clip with bullets for it to fit in the gun. Oh well, it wouldn't have made that big of a difference anyway. Brad Jennings "if the golden arches shut shop, where else are the VB people going to get work." - Colin Davies

            Hannibal Smith once asked B.A. Baracus for "clips" in an episode of The A-Team, so I call them clips. ;) (Funny thing, B.A. had been hypnotized to fall asleep when he heard the word "eclipse" so he could fly without being scared. He fell asleep in the middle of a firefight when Hannibal said "clips" and hilarity ensued!) --Mike-- The Internet is a place where absolutely nothing happens.   -- Strong Bad 1ClickPicGrabber - Grab & organize pictures from your favorite web pages, with 1 click!

                      I seem to recall that in WWII, the V sign stood for victory. It became a peace sign in the '60s John Carson
