The intensity of War

I must write a rebuttal to the April 26th blog of Mr. Tchao. He somewhat accurately recounted the events of Saturday the 24th where we went up to Wasaga Beach for some paintballing. He did however forget to mention how it was he who on subsequent games in the "Bus" event - proceeded to die within a combined 8 seconds in both games. I believe it was him in the first one that fell before he got to the bunker and was shot like a lame duck flailing in the sand.

Now regarding the infamous "fart". I must clarify a couple things. It is true however it was not as violent as our protagonist likes to portray it. What was impressive though was when he decided to dash from the overcroded bunker, risking life and limb in order to get to a closer bunker so he could shoot the white team. As he dashed through the jungle, narrowly avoiding bullets, he jumped (John Woo style) over limbs of a branch and showed such great agility and skill in landing directly behind the tree he had targetted. Although the final outcome of getting shot in the ass and on the wrist was tragic - his valient attempt was fearless.

Such cannot be said for the aforementioned hero (or should I say heroine?)
