Uh, as much as I like this hobby, I think it would take an ever-so-slight backseat to a lot of things if I only had 2 months to live.

Gotta agree with Sas on this one.  With a lousy two months to live, I don't think I'd be doing anything with arcade games.  Traveling and seeing placed I'd never seen would be right up there, though.

< taking it to[sic] serious... >

Not serious; it's what I'd do if I had two months to live.  That's what this thread is about, right?  Since it's not going to happen (that we know of) we can talk about stuff we'd do within that time.

I think I would dress up like Mad Max/The Road Warrior and then buy a Harley-Davidson bike and tour the USA including all the national parks. I'd also have a bike trailer with a MAME cabinet mouted on it.

You'd need a Boss Hoss, not a Harley, to pull that :)

Heh - I'd take out as many loans as possible, commission Orange County Choppers to make me a MAME-chopper (would only take 5 days according to the show), and cruise the country -Vegas, New Orleans, Seattle, Hoboken, all the party towns :)

Have them attach a modded xbox to the back with a lcd screen, so I can play Mame on the road :)

You won't be able to buy anything.  All your money will be useless.  

Believe me, if the the world was going to end in 2 months and everyone knew it, the world you and I know would end much sooner.

How's that for serious?   ;D

Snake,
Has your Dr. ever talked to you about a seretonin re-uptake inhibitor?  ;D
You scare me, MAN! (http://www.image4u.org/transtrader/emoticons/eek.gif)

PS. The M16 is designed more for wounding than killing (.223 is a small fast round). Causes more chaos in the battelfield that way. You wound one guy and it takes two others to cart him off the field (taking three out of the fight). In the mean time, his screaming demoralizes his companions--further impacting the enemy's ability to fight. Now the PSG1, that's a killing weapon...OK...I don't know why I know these things...and even less why I felt the need to share...sorry!

PPS. If the world was ending I'd hide from Snake! (http://www.image4u.org/transtrader/emoticons/wink.gif)

I thought all NATO rounds were 7.62mm? You guys have your own calibre or is that just that old fashioned Imperial stuff?  ;)

The 7.62 was designed to kill as well but economy was considered. By reducing the calibre and increasing the muzzle velocity they're able to kill as efficiently, but on a budget!  ;) It's not your typical 22! I suppose when you're firing a couple billion rounds at some country every penny counts huh?

Btw, the C7 is better!  
;)hehe ;)

Oh and Snake, it's not a gun it's a WEAPON.

It's another round (7.62mm=.308 and 5.56=.223). Some of our larger weapons use 7.62mm (ie. M60). A 5.56mm round weighs about 1/3 as much as a 7.76mm round so you can take more to the party...better stop now , I'm starting to sound all military.

BTW the FN P90 is the BEST!  ;D
