"The last Roll"

**hawkman67** · #1 05-09-2011, 04:12 PM

My oldest son likes to pose action figures and in this case green army men about the house... Apparently the last roll of TP needed to be protected at all costs, LOL. And my wife calls me odd?? the pics are a little blury as they came from my phone camera. Enjoy

That's really funny. When I read the thread's title, I thought it was about weight loss.

Brings back memories of when I worked for a place building architectural models.

For one architect, we had built a model of a nine-block (three by three) area that their new building was going to go into. Enough detail to show the shapes and (more importantly) heights of the surrounding buildings, but otherwise fairly plain.

A few months later, I had to go to his office for some reason or another. He had his young son with him that day (I think the son was "sick" from school).

On top of the model (that the architect had paid how many thousands of dollars for?) was an impressive array of green army men.

When the architect saw me staring with my "What the h-?" look, he just smiled and shrugged.

...And not to hijack your thread, but your son's army guys remind me of this:

POND PATROL

Keep us posted if he makes any updates!

There's a guy in the US who has made a living photographing his tiny little model people all over the City.
he sets them up in the Road, on the sidewalk, in the gutter, at the park....

you tell your wife to go buy more Toiletries and stop opinionating
and tell your son he deserves a medal for saving the VIPs (Very Important Papers)!

I've felt that way about the last roll of TP myself sometimes.

Question though...No air support?

Thanks everyone for the replies, I let my son know how every one liked the pics. we just love the Pond Patrol site! both of my sons have done some things like that in the yard and such, just not quite as elaborate. Murph, I have been there myself enough times and so completely relate. Now that TP resupply happened and in the nick of time, here are some of the troops of Easy company defending the stock pile, and and after beating back a commando group of the tans that tried to take over!
