Graham, what the hell IS that thing?

Looks like Deckards pistol from Blade Runner.

Huh, I never really saw it up close before.

I think that's what it is.

Regardless if it is or not, still would have made a GREAT sidearm for the Captain.

Look's like it according to google. That thing packed a punch too.

Who gets to have this?

To me that thing looks like it's made from legos for some reason.

I was going to say old office equipment.

WTF is that?

A cross between Lego, old office equipment, and a mechano set apparantly.

I'm almost certain that back portion near the grip began life as a stapler.

The pistol I posted was indeed Deckard's pistol from Blade Runner. I always loved that gun.

Anyway, Mark, what exactly is "significantly naked?" To me, nakedness was always more of a digital state than analog - you either are, or you're not.

It's always confused me that Americans use the word naked to mean anyone in a state where you can see some skin. Obviously this must vary from place to place, but I'm sure there's places in the deep south where they call you naked for simply having your socks off.

Funny, I never got the memo. Young children, with a more nebulous grasp of definitions, may do that, but I've always taken the word "naked" to mean sans any clothes. That was the gist of my joke towards Mark. Now, America in general has a more Puritanical attitude toward nudity, sexual mores, etc., than Great Britain or the continent, but I couldn't imagine anyone calling me naked if I were stripped to the waist.

Yeah. Stripped to the waist is only half naked.
