>>>>>[Great, CoT in Chicago, body searches on the roads, and some nut case
with an RPG tries to knock me off on the way home from the store.
Things just keep getting better and better.

You know the _really_ weird part? The bugger never even fired. Just
pulled in behind me, stuck his launcher out the sun roof, followed me
for two blocks trying to get a clear shot, then pulled back in and drove
off.]<<<<<

>>>>>[As stated before Irish - they're everywhere. The body searches
aren't so bad though - mainly for larger transports at the moment,
though a few, shall we say /questionable quality/ vehicles are subject
to suspicion and inspection. The borders are always a dodgy place
anyway, and with a sick fuck like Abbadon waving his dirty hands at this
and that and shrieking for more light bulbs what can you expect?]<<<<<

its being
held together with primer and duct tape. I think I might want to start
taking the bus.]<<<<<

and your trucks held together with duct tape and a prayer - maybe public
transport isn't such a bad deal - o'course, I would use buses if I were
you. Maybe the train.]<<<<<

tape and primer. The old beast is actualy capable of standing off small
arms for a fair bit. RPGs are anothe maner, though.]<<<<<
