Hey Jeff, have you ever introduced yourself to a patient as "Dr. Feelgood?"

I used to own at paintball, as I would pick the weirdest places to defend... I had a habit of wading through a river/swamp area up to my waist to flank the other teams. They would rarely catch on, even when I kept doing it. My main tactic was to go alone and snipe... I'd even use all black paintballs, which are really hard to see, so that I could use one shot at a time, 10 sec or so apart, to get someone... they wouldn't be able to pin point where they were coming from.

Good idea WMD... perhaps, Doc, you could have a couple of syringes with different colors. You seen the movie Planet Terror?

We're going to go paintballing on 11/11. Haven't done it in around 10 years. I'm sure the guns are much better these days. Taking the knee pads for sure!

They would rarely catch on, even when I kept doing it. The shop I worked at in Japan had a speed-ball (X-Ball) course upstairs. We converted two basketball courts into the course, with a close-combat course adjacent to in in 3 renovated raquetball courts. The guy who ran it was on the Japan and Guam Pro-Am teams. We used to get tore up at his expense, and then we'd tear up customers who became too cocky. Outdoors, I tend to take up a sniper position. I know where a course is that is relatively close to Rumney, for a long-weekend-rest-day...

Most courses still use the Tippman 98 markers. They're reliable, easy to service, and hold their own. A remarkable marker considering how long it's been around. With practice you can get anywhere from 12 - 17 shots off per second.

I had my hands on a Das Parka that was going for sub $200. I don't really need one, though it was super tempting to buy it. I'll sleep on it, and maybe go back and get it.
Sizing is what's throwing me at the moment. A large fits quite well, though I don't know if it'll be large enough to wear over my layers/soft shell. The XL is big. And I think it's just too roomy to be of any use, despite having pull chords at the waist. I'll have to bring my layers with me if I go back.

I've been witness to 24/sec on a spider. It's a technique thing to get <10/sec. I think my best was 16 on a Tippman. Did your markers look like this: They're the stock marker for most fields. Serious folks get something with a 2 finger trigger that is electronically assisted. Though match-play requires them to be semi-auto, non assisted. You'd be amazed at the rate of fire a pro-am or a collegiate player can get with a bare bones semi-auto. Basically if you practice enough, you can go through unthinkable amounts of paint per minute. <edit to fixor the picture>

Granted, it will be an outer layer, but maybe its the difference between primaloft and down. I've been a down weenie for a long time now. Gucci outlet in Freeport. They've got several L and XL. The colors may not be great, but for the price, who cares.
