      • R. Lee Ermey: Now, I'll tell you what. I've got a twenty year old son that can pretty much camp out at the ISMT as long as you threw him a peanut butter sandwich every three days or so. (grabs a peanut butter sandwich) Hey, Clint! You can't sit in there and read e-mails for the rest of your life. Incoming! (tosses sandwich into tent) Now, where the hell is my clipboard? (the clipboard gets tossed out of the tent) Thank you. Edit
