Happiness is a Warm Machine Gun

Quoth Professor Reynolds:
HAPPINESS IS A WARM MACHINE GUN? Actually, a warm machine gun is one that has beeen fired, and given the price of ammo that could be grounds for unhappiness. I took my advanced constitutional law seminar to a shooting range a few years back (we were studying the right to bear arms) and rented an MP5 for the students to shoot. It's only a submachinegun, but I picked up the ammo tab and it was over 200 bucks. But they enjoyed it. So maybe happiness is a warm machine gun so long as someone else is paying for the ammunition. . . .
All of which is why I do the Airsoft thing...
