    Hey, knife wielding robber or not, Sam is just a guy like any of the rest of us... He puts his pants on one leg at a time... Well, I guess he can just stop at one leg now, but...
    A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands - love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper - his hands remember the rifle.

    Sounds like that should be a line from an opening scene of CSI: Miami.

    Somehow I don't think he'll be able to "leg it out" away from the cops anymore...
