    If you are not a member of the Science Fiction Book Club you can not see the reference. It's a good thing I know that it is the name of the main character in Starship Troopers. Although his name is actually Juan (Johnnie) Rico.

    Where do you put the Bayonet?

      Sonuvagun. I didn't think that would be a link people would have trouble getting to. Sorry.

      I could have also went with Felix (from the book "Armor" by John Stealey) but I thought people would only know about Felix the Cat.

          Felix would break Rico and the whole squad with ease, but I wouldn't link that name to Armor without a bit more to it. It's a common enough name on its own that it wouldn't raise that link.

          P.S. Apparently they re-released Armor with a new cover recently.

            Mine I actually kinda stole from my mom. When we first got dial up my mom needed to make a user name to log in so she picked Mobojo, meaning Mom, Bob, Joe. Im Bob AKA Robert, and Joe AKA Jordan is my brother. I used it to login to the dial up and needed a username for some sites so I just used Mobojo and kept it ever since.

              The 1st copy I had had a picture of Felix clubbing an ant to death with a laser rifle. The copy I have now has a pretty generic looking picture of some sort of space marine with a big gun and his helmet off.

              And, yes, I think I would have to take The Engine in a stand up fight with the Roughnecks.

                  Sirex should be able to recover his log in and change the password. He would then login and change the password.
