Who's the man on the picture? Is it you ?

It looks like the guy on the show "Mail Call" on the History Channel.

What's "Mail Call" ? We don't have that here.

R. Lee Ermy... Not "Army". Marine.

He actually was/is a gunnery seargent who retired. He then took up acting. One of his best roles was as the mean s.o.b. drill seargent in the movie "Full Metal Jacket".

The history channel series "Mail Call" is based on gunny answering "Emails To Do With Matters Military"...

His schtick is to use watermellons as targets/enemies/heads and do short features in answer to the emails recieved. I quite like it, but then i am a frustrated four star general.😀

Semper Fidelis. Carry On!

Sooo...RHP...

A friend of mine mentioned RHP in passing when we were trying out the new games addition to MSN messenger 9 (which does not include a chess game). He mentioned that if they did add chess to Messenger it would kill RHP (which I doubt).

So I checked it out, started a couple of games with some friends and bought my pawn star within the first couple of days. Excellent site.

I use gregoftheweb in a lot of places so if you see that it's me.

I made my avatar, it is a modification of the coat of arms of my name in Ireland.
