hahaha come on, that's cool. Not as cool as this bad boy: http://www.amazon.com/Cult-Classics-...+action+figure
Yes, I have the John McClane (it's the only one I own, and it was $20 on an impulse buy)
Can't say I blame him for the Japan trip, honestly.

I agree with you, but here is my thing, I provide what I consider a GOOD life for my family, if shooting an air soft rifle in front of some giddy folks in Japan means a GREAT life for my family, count me in. I'm always open to legal and ethical means of making life better for my family, even if I have to sweep my pride under the rug for a moment.
I am recognized in circles that I choose to have it remembered, and in the manner in which I choose to have it remembered. It's a LOT of EXTREMELY hard work. We all have our Subject Matter Expertise in something, and it's what we do with it that matters.
I have been offered big $$ contracts to fix other peoples' problems. I have cancelled contracts (and lost thousands of dollars in the process) because of ideals. the most recent was a big name company, and I chose not to be affiliated with them, professionally or personally.
To me: You are the company you keep. Full Stop. Living a life of integrity and loyalty is more important than a paycheck. Full Stop.
It's not just WHAT you have, it's HOW you got it. It's not THAT you win, it's also HOW you win.
I'd have done it wearing pink leotards and a ballet tutu just to provide a little bit more for my family. The action figure is funny though....
