Use the Force



Which of the following is the most accurate description of the pictures on this page?

A. Darth Vadar has taken over the US Army
B. Isaac and Janika are being paid handsomely to test new, top secret equipment
C. There was recently a major terrorist incident in East Texas
D. Isaac and Janika are attempting to conceal bruises and fatigue, by acting cool.




Saturday, Isaac and I finally got our schedules matched up with the weather and played paintball, like we have been planning to do since his birthday in February--And I have the bruises to prove it.

We hooked up with some boys who didn't want to play with the kids with all the high-tech equipment. They thought we would be easy meat, and were surprised by our skill (beginners luck). I had only played paintball once before, but I had read a couple of paintball magazines cover to cover because for a long time, it was the only reading material in the bathroom. I made a few kills early on, but Isaac was more successful in that arena. I was really good at providing cover for teammates to advance.

Isaac credited his success to strategic video games. I guess simulative training works.


I don't know what the stink I just did to make the text do that. I don't have time to figure it out. It is time for scouts and Achievement Days.
