That is funny. I remember a rancher friend taking me on a tour of his property here in rural NorCal a few years back. He pointed at a gap in the distant hills and said, "when they come, that's where they'll come from. And when they do...we'll be ready." I had to hold back the laughter.

I believe this mental exercise was mainly just the motor component for his gun hobby, a little convenience of the subconscious.

And at the same time I also 100% believe he could hold off PLAN marines better than the average guy. :D
