The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I am never going to stop making fun of my sister for those "fixing makeup before sweep" shots.

Funny as hell. I about fell over when I turned around and saw. It had to be the makeup because I was supposed to have gone down after Dan but the bug swerved from chasing me to her. She died, I lived.

Thanks!

As cute as it was, it reminded me of something that happened last year...

At a WWII display for the public, one of our gals was busted by current military for putting on lipstick, as it's against regulations.
She educated him, that back during the war, women were actually allowed, even encouraged to put on lipstick and to do up their hair all nice and fancy. It was a morale booster for the men, that the women in the military appear feminine for them, as a reminder of what they're fighting for and left back home. :mrgreen:

Ha. Apparently the heckler was never told that the WACs, WAVEs, and Women Marines in those days had makeup instruction as part of their training. Kudos to your friend.

Dom, sway a bit more, its a happy song!

Those pics from the sweep are awesome! I'm glad the improvised sweep route worked out. That Ferret (the armored car) could not have been parked in a better spot, huh?

Looking back to the colony sweeps of old where we started in the Marriott (upstairs) and were able to move around the main area as well as the Hyatt....I'm amazed we found a route at all.

Nice work guys, we looked awesome and we had fun doing it!!

Dan....walk it off...you're fine!! ;)
