What I want to know about this M777 piece is what hauls it once on the ground so that it can keep up with the Bradleys and M1A1's? What about counterbattery fire? Can it shoot and scoot fast enough?

LOL!
That is mean... and hysterical with the tear gas dust.

Actually a MEAN prank would be (understand I didn't do this....I would never do anything like this) to take the license plate and descriptions of five freshman dormmates known to be slovenly decrepit dopers from New York. Now, I heard that somebody with a huge roll of quarters called from a payphone to notify the state patrols of every state from Florida to New York as to said descriptions, knowing they were carrying a decent amount of recreational marijuana and telling the cops it was 50 lbs of pure heroin....Imagine getting stopped for the fifth time with a bunch of southern cops pointing guns at your long haired head....Anyway....I heard something like this was done back in the 1970's....But it wasn't me! But that's pretty mean thing to do just cause a person is ridiculed for being raised in the South...

LOL!!

I have to keep that in mind.
For referencee purposes.

This goes back a long way, '60's, but I seem to remember remember calling in arty and having it on target in less than two Minuit's. Is old age catching up with me?

And other things that are hard.
