Larry,

The name comes from the movie, The Great Escape. It is one of my favorite movies. It's loosely based on the mass escape of Stalag Luft III during WWII. One of the main characters, Captain Virgil Hilts (Steve McQueen), is always spending time in the cooler hence the title "The Cooler King."

Ya gotta watch out for DMZ-LT (normally referred to as John)(No relation to the toilet) He takes a normal thread and sends it right down the John (toilet) (Hold on a second!!!! I think I found the connection) by using trickery and deceitful comments like brownies and sheep......We Have a resident chaplain (Keith Hixon) who can set you straight about John. Basically Im the normal one who uses the Rev Keith for backup and support when I lose control of these guys

Have you met my dancing banana yet?

Mike ....

DANGER-DANGER Will Robertson .... I can see where Bob K is going here and also beware if the subject "Psyco Vets" comes up. You will tried to be recruited and asked to go to the campout, at least that's what they call it, on a certain mountain in Georgia.
