That's the second raccoon to get mortally vaporized in this movie... Are raccoons the "redshirts" of "Rebel Cry"?

Vaporized? More like....crushed? Obliterated? Smeared off the face off the face of oblivion?

Nah, he'll show up at home later saying, "Hey honey! Lookeee what I found! Free RamScoop!"

I believe the appropiate radio call from the RC is 'Fox Four, Fox Four'.

(US military usage Fox(fire) One is guns, two is a Sidewinder, Three is a long range missile, like Sparrow, AMRAAM, or Pheonix. Fox Four is a bit of black humor for a midair collision, you 'shot' the enemy by raming him)

Sheesh, my guy gets vaporized and nobody gives him any respect!

Now I know how Rodney Dangerfield feels...

At least your guy was in the movie! I'm still kicking myself over not being quick enough to put in for a cameo!

Awwww... *pats* Don't worry. We'll getcha in next time!

Then we can both ride the express train to heck!

About the only way I'd fit in is as a "Jar Jar" type of character and I don't want to go there. I'm silly, not masochistic.

Odd thought: Why are Java extentions named 'jar'? Wouldn't 'mug' be more appropriate?

I knew that. You missed my attempt at caffinated humor. Ah well, it's a job with no perks.

Ya know, I'm not even sure if my guy bought it or not...-:>

As for me, I've long referred to refilling my coffee (whatever...often a 64-oz bucket) as "refreshing the java applet"...

Oh, don't be a drip. You might find something more pressing to do instead. Ah well, enough roasting. Or is it fair trade?

I'm sure most of the conservatives around here would prefer to see the French roasted. <rimshot>

Nah, I got the joke. I just prefer the "grind" of answering questions when it's this early in the morning.

Interesting... I never knew that. After hearing the phrase in the movie Independence Day, I thought it meant 'fire missile from mount #2'. This makes considerably more sense. Thanks.

I'm -definitely- going to have to remember the 'Fox Four' comment...
