yeah, figured. sorry bud. I feel sorrier for all the folks that waited around on that instead of buying KOTR at the same time as the rest of us. with the new one coming out in december, talk about being behind the power curve.

right on! thanks!
gotta love all the memories that folks have and all the neat stuff we've been able to do because of the armor, and because of the 501st. It's opened up so many venues in my life from helping kids to making friends that would never have been there otherwise.

good beer? **** yeah it was. and the company wadnt bad neither. we were at the 501st carolina dinner the night before the parade, and the table I was at with pete mayhew was wayyy at the tail end of having dinner served. I guess there was some mix-up that left us hangin', so I was sittin next to pete and his wife chattin along, and we decide to cruise up to the bar to wait, so I'm there at the bar with pete and his wife, and turns out he loves guiness as much as I do, so we start drinkin, and I thought I could hold my own, but he drank me under the table. I did alright considering he's 7' somethin or another and I'm 5'6, so I figure he had more room to fill LOL. we musta drunk 7 or 8 pints in the first 12-15 minutes. the hangover was fowl, but that was one **** of a way to spend my 1st dragoncon. I'll never forget it. petes a nice guy, and even nicer to drink with!
-
right on! no sweat, I was just curious.

LOL. most I've ever done was through running late and being wayy too hungover a couple years back when they had the 1st dragon con parade. So I was runnin late, managed to get geared up, dehydrated as ****, jogged 6+ blocks in armor to the staging area only to stand there for a minute or so and walk all the way back. I kept burpin in my helmet and gaggin myself out. pretty foul, my fans crapped out, so no air circulation and I fogged over on top of it, and I had those awesome cold shivers runnin up and down my spine lettin me know I needed water fast LOL-kinda reminded me of my infantry days.. see, it all ties together!! aaaahhh those lovely Dcon memories. I love tryin to get the smell of beer outta my helmet for a month or so afterwards LOL!
-
right on, I just wanted to raise the issue and make sure it hadnt been forgotten. Thanks for all your time and effort, and we look forward to seeing updates!

on a side note, you CAN get spray paint to look right. ACE sells a sandy colored & textured aerosol, and it dries fairly fast. upside is you work it a patch at a time, and lightly sand/ scuff it with some 220, and it comes out pretty friggin kewl as well.
