Quiet Jim, or you'll have the Clinton Administration wanting to cut a deal
with Scuba Pro that would install a high-tech lock on that snorkel so only
an authorized breather would be able to breathe out of that snorkel!

Suggest you encourage your son in this play. Then when he comes of age he
can join my son (currently at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes
Illinois, SEAL Challenge Program) in the armed forces and be one of the
proud few who willingly serve our country in defense of the freedom we all
enjoy but so few deserve!

On the other had you could take it and give him a doll or something but
based on the amount of testosterone you regularly pump out on this list, I'm
willing to bet he would just point his finger and switch it on full auto
(with his pinky finger pointing down to emulate a pre-Brady 30 round clip)!
