Ha! Nothing to be concerned about your majesty, pardon the hypocrisy and the noise. Just our usual existential scuffle in one of the rear barracks. Men are eager for action, get itchy keyboard fingers, 'spite noble intentions and all that. That's where ranting takes me. I'm a horribly incompetent soldier-nazi-cop-chickenhawk. But one can still dream, no? *R *pushups for me!
