This gives me a great idea for a CM (or SB) shirt. Instead of "WWJD?" (that stands for What Would Jesus Do?, and has become a popular slogan among many religious folk in the USA) we print up shirts that say "WWGSPD?"

Let it guide your actions as you play CM.

Thought Some would enjoy this, off the SB board from Ssnake:

You Might Be A Tanker IF:

-The only ashtrays at home are 105mm shell casings.

-You're always accusing your wife of turning the volume down on the TV, telephone, doorbell, etc.

-You cannot pass gas without saying "On the way!"

-You wish it wasn't illegal to stick your head out of the sunroof while driving.

-You refer to Fort Knox as home.

-You refer to George S. Patton as "Him".

-You consider four as the right number of people to have in a family.

-The only kind of scouts you are aware of are Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts.

-You laugh whenever someone mentions the thrill of firing a big bore gun such as a .308.

-"up" is no longer a direction to you.

-You believe a hammer can fix anything.

- You invite all your friends to a barbecue and all three show up.

-You drive everywhere, even if it's two houses down.

-Your wife is always reminding you to bring the lounge chairs and cooler home.

-You sleep better sitting in your chair than you do in your bed.

-You can sleep through the worst thunderstorm but wake up immediately when your clock radio goes off.

-You believe radial tires are overrated.

-Your hunting dog obeys such commands as: "halt", "traverse left/right", "forward"

and "identified".

-You were doing drive-by shootings before they were a fad.

-You think nothing of your kids peeing off the porch instead of using the bathroom.

-You use old track to surround your wife's small garden.

-You replace all your wife's flower vases with shinier ones after each gunnery.

-You get mad whenever your wife puts anything away and it's not by the load plan.

-It takes you a few extra minutes in the morning to remember that the throttle for

your car is on the floor.

-You use your child's telescope to track passing cars.

-Your child's first words are "Not my echelon".

-You believe that a combat load should not interfere with the amount of coffee and propane you pack.

-You would help your kids with math if only you had all your fingers.

Regards, John Waters

You might be a Sherman tanker if:

You have dogtags around your neck and arms, just in case one set gets lost in the bailout.

You have modified the gun's gyrostabilizer to stabilize the crew. Even when the tank is moving at high speed, the crew will be able to bail out and hit the soft clump of bushes they were aiming for.

You consider the .50 cal gun to be the best antitank weapon on your Sherman.

You were issued a DOA toe tag along with your uniform, because the Army knows you'll need it.

You stuff your tank with dead leaves so that when it brews up, more smoke is generated, covering your buddy's retreat.

The reverse gear on your tank's transmission wears out faster than forward, from running away so often.

You praise your gunner for putting rounds directly in front of enemy tanks every time. Of course, they're never AT rounds, they are always smoke rounds.

No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. -Ender's Game

Also: You always park the car in the hedge,

You have trouble with words that have more than one syllable, You tighten all the lug nuts on your car before cranking it, you always make last minute turns because you forget the car can't pivot. biggrin.gif
