We've been talking about moving for a while now, but it's only become feasible/practical in the past six months or so. So we're looking into it.

I want to pick up an extra Green Shirt pack, but is that coupon good everywhere? When I go online to TRU.com I get a different set of ads.
I have a bunch of stuff I have to do today, so I'm not sure I have time for lunch Oliver. Since my wife is still working I can't get away much this week. Plus I have my littlest one with me. I just went to Kingstowne on Wednesday! I picked up an extra Bench-press to use for a Gung-Ho body. The flesh tones are way off though. But I got a Ben Kenobi head that looks great for Colton, although I can't get the head to sit right? Why didn't Hasbro make this compatible? |

Wow, Loose that's pretty hardcore. Congrats though. Moscow I hear is a beautiful city. Have you started taking language lessons? I've heard that it's a hard language to learn.
Topside, good luck with the move. Pardon my ignorance being an Aussie by way of Canada but is Cooperstown where the baseball hall of fame is? Beatiful area- right on Lake Otsego. Historic area- inspiration for James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales (Last Of the Mohicans etc). Fiance just signed closing paperwork on our house today. She actually works at the HoF as manager of school programs. |

What's the budget of your Joe team?
I'm thinking that it's more of a secret unit with alot of "freedom" in it's operations, there isnt' as much overwatch and they can "break" some laws now and then (like Duke mentions in IDW #10, "we know your paperwork is as false as ours"), but this means they don't have access to the government budget. At least not totally. They get some but not enough. So they then need to fend for themselves so to speak. Which is where Honda Lou and Stanley come in. Yep, stealing from Zulu HL is a US Marshall specializing in smuggling. Stanley is the Joe's procurement officer. Basically anything the Joes capture is theirs to use and Stanley is responsible for keeping 'em supplied.

Basically anything the Joes capture is theirs to use and Stanley is responsible for keeping 'em supplied. Hey I like that. kind of like Miami Vice and how they drove a Lambourghini. It can explain half of Tiger Force too. Like it was a big hit and they just racked it in. I mean if Cobra is as technologically advanced as it seems, they would have a lot of stuff just worth stealing. It could be a massive cover-up as well. Using a terrorist front, the US government would sort of allow them to exist just for the fact they would be like a total tech hub. Albeit through questionable methods, Cobra without regards for human rights, and a seemingly unlimited bankroll that they just steal from where ever, could really be a front for cutting edge technology. Why wait for Senate approval? "Hey Johnson? You know that tank with the flux capacitor, built in Lasers cannons, and a Laser Mortar system that can withstand the impact of a Freight train, with a top speed of 90mph that we've been working on? Yeah Yeah scrap that. Cobra already did it and the Joes just stole it, I mean recovered one. 5 years under schedule and $10 billion under budget." |

I met up with Loose at TRU today. Awesome. He's just as nice as you would expect. I had a great time and made a new friend. I wish y'all could have been there.

Good luck on your move (crap timing, though, what with winter around the corner).
