5. A sucking chest wound is Nature's way of telling you to slow down.

All the Desert Eagle is a substitute for someone who has a small penis. Desert Eagles are way to heavy to actually carry and use in a combat scenario. I can have 3 accurate shots off w/my 1911 in the same time it would take a person to get one shot off with a Desert Eagle.Quote:
