A young, tall, extremely fit guy. Probably with a "military" hair cut. And a gun and a knife.

That or something like it. I hope his knife is named Little Debbie. That would be +100,000,000,000 coolness points if anyone ID'd that reference sans Google.

Are you referring to the Little Debbie line of snack foods as a friend to children's sweet tooths or foe to America's waistline?

It's an old habit I picke dup from the Corps, Moksha. I name most all of my firearms with a woman's name, usually after a woman I know personally. For example, "Linda" is named after my girlfriend Linda, as I started building that rifle shortly after Linda and I started dating.

No, Blixa. I didn't name the knife (It's a SOG Knives SEAL 2000, by the way). Though Linda did cackle a bit at your Linda Barry reference. And now Linda expects me to read "Cruddy" so I'll understand the refernce, so it looks like I'll spend this fine in my favorite chair reading a novel about a butcher's daughter named "Clyde"...

But hey... If it's as good as Linda says it is, I'll probably enjoy myself.

I LOVE LINDA: both the gun and the woman.

You should read Cruddy. It's one of my all time favorite books (and remember I am a Professor of Literature). In it you will also meet Little Debbie's sister Sheila, and also Francine, Cleoma, Baby Sue, Margy, Lisa and Big Girl.
