I though that's what you do when you want to buy everybody a round. I guess Chris is paying for a round of beer at the next meet? .

I thought that was the "rallying point" hand sign. Er, at least it was in my unit...

Noah and Don are right - its the Army hand signal for rallying, although I admire Andy's creative way of trying to get free beer.

You didn't miss anything, Greg. I just got tired of the old avatar and thought this looked cool.

Jeeez, has it really been 30 years since I was living in (and departing/returning frequently) Smoke Bomb Hill? Now, let's see how long it takes someone to catch THAT reference. . .

I recognized it but thought it was the new Dorki sign for gather to me in the “circle the wagons ” type of defense. Not that we’re feeling threatened or anything
