final question (which was inspired by a teammate and his girlfriend)

If the love of your life and your paintball gun were dangling off the side of a cliff and you could only save one of them... what would you save? Umm... I'd save my girl, because... well I shoot an Automag... of course it'll survive the fall!!!
(for those youngens like me that don't really have that commitment yet... then replace "love of your life" with "girl that is a pain in the butt and prevent you from buying that extra case of paint"
