Upon further review: I'm gonna need a Main Battle Tank to take on T Rex so I'm thinking of borrowing a M2 Bradley. :lol: In fact, I'll use that same tank to take on that 20' slithering monster---I'm not messing around with these critters anymore, I want some armor plating around me. :geek:

Wouldn't a T Rex be considered to just have two legs?
Hey your correct..they do have some tiny 'arms' but they do walk on just two legs. Let's see, give me my M44 with 5 rounds and T-Rex would be history. :big shock: Or better make that a 50cal machine gun, a Browning M2 would probably do the trick. :biggrin:
20mm , or that deck gun I saw on the USS Slater, a .50 would only piss off a Rex.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

:pointup: I would not find the humor in that joke. I'd be beating feet so fast there would be rooster tails coming off both of them. :lol:

I'm going for the A10 Warthog with the 30mm and Hellfire missiles. I don't want to be in the same zip code.

I like the idea of the Warthog and or the 20mm. :) Either one would get his attention.
BTW: The USS Slater is a fine looking ship. I once went aboard the USS Pompano, a WWII Submarine now (or was?) docked in San Francisco. As an ol' Army grunt I wouldn't have done well on a sub, those tight quarters would have given me claustrophobia. What's that old submariners joke: There are two kinds of ships, submarines and targets. :lol:

The Slater was a bit cramped, I would not want to go fumbling around trying to find my way in the dark on that ship

That would definitely be an example of why they they call those snakes an "invasive species"

Speaking of transplanting animals, I cant wait to find out the animal they transplant to control the wolves around the northwest. In Washington they transplanted the wolves to control those terrible pesky COWS. They did one hell of a job in that in just a few years. The bears were good for one or 2 only a year but the wolves, wow...took it up to a new level. :thumbsup:

I hear that there is someplace out in Montana were they grow them. There was some sort of mass escape last week, they are still trying to find all the missing snakes.
