So Ric was pretty much spazzing out the other day over this gun. He was like, "Oh man, at annual training, I got to shoot a 50 caliber sniper rifle, man! This thing was so awesome. I could shoot and then (insert gun terminology here. something to extent of, take the recoil and then get the rifle setup again on its bipod) and I could count to 4, like 1...2...3...4, and then BOOM! The tank would blow. It was so awesome. Do you have any idea how long a bullet is for one of these things??" Proceeds to show me the length of the bullet, and finds all sorts of pictures of the rifle, takes me to the Barrett website, etc. "Beautiful. It's just beautiful."
It was kinda funny. And thus begins Annie's education of guns.

So are you posting this for Micah's benefit since you already told me this story? Does Ric read your blog? He should. Ric has my utmost admiration for working with you all the time.

Yes, Ric deserves your utmost admiration. He's usually here when I post anyways, so sitting down and reading it would be something of a bore. And it's not like he's all that overly interested in my idiosyncratic Annie-isms.

I have to just say that this "Annie under the influence of a Marine" trend is kinda amusing to me. Dad thought you were funny last night...which means that he wasn't annoyed with you, so that's good :)
