- Me on the right.
Here's a picture of yours truly deployed to Saudi Arabia in 1990. I was part of the setup crew assigned to the 197 Infantry Brigade Military Police Platoon. My duties were to provide security to the unit as well as the supply routes. HooYa!

Well, I'm not the only 'nutty' one on this site ~ I was going to ask if it was a can/bottle of Pepsi ~ *grin ~ but I like PG's "salted nuts" guess.
What? ~ who's nuts? ~ me?

Seems to me the least you could have done was to build a little secret pipeline form their wells to my soon-to-be-built home refinery.
Geez.

I had to google Kubrick, you stumped me on that comment. And what pray tell do you do with these little Kubrick's. Are you building your army of toy faceless soldiers?
