Hehehehe.... My wife won't even be in the same room with me if I'm watching a war movie!

I have forced myself to deal with things like M-48s wearing the Balkenkreuze. What bothers me is when BOTH sides are driving the SAME vehicles, just painted differently!! I mean, c'mon!!!

I really wish I could start my own movie production company. I'd hire all the pedantic bastids I've met on these fora (myself chief among them!) and we'd start doing movies right. There are a coupla computer geeks that could really do some serious CGI, and we'd be rockin'!!!
