I think the next time I play paintball I'll bring a lantern with me.

PS : If you don't "get" it, have some research... (http://www.hyperhistory.com/online_n2/people_n2/persons2_n2/diogenes.html)
And have a little more too... (http://colinp1.home.mindspring.com/diogenes.htm)

I'll just camp out in a large wine barrel and find four dogs. I've already got the cloak.

right now, I wish I were physicaly able to. I think I could hanlde a lot more of this better if I were drunk.

No, just whimsical. And after a few of the last outings, I do feel like Diogenes! And I REALLY think it's time to bust out the lantern...

His unique way of signifying that he was done speaking, or the infamous "Would that, by rubbing my belly, I could ease my hunger" bit?

The stomach rubbing bit...can you explain the way he signified the end of his speaking, or would that not be suitable content?

On at least one occasion, he forced an abrupt end to a lecture by answering nature's call. More info here: http://www.benbest.com/philo/diogenes.html

I feel ya! I feel the need to scream at all the young punks at the local field for some of the moronic stuff they say/do. I guess that makes me old, 26.

I wish I could start a thread labeled; "paintball: why does it attract so many of lifes losers?" However since I have an identity here on AO, I wont risk it.

Dang Tyger, you know better than anyone that if you're looking for a good day of play make a date with the Chicago crew. That and mi casa es su casa senor, you've been over enough and should know how to get there by now.
