Just an update. Graduated from college with Honors. And I made Valedictorian. Gave a speech, received a plaque, the whole bit. I have a bit of a medical setback though. Thyroiditis, was just diagnosed about 2 months ago now. Seeing a specialist on June 29. We shall see what happens. Working on...

Has anyone heard of a rumor that a Reserve MP platoon is being formed in the Kingston, Ont. area? I have been told by a few guys at the Princess of Wales Reg. that they are accepting applications, and are recruiting guys from this same regiment, for the Res. MP trade. Or am I being fed some...

Just searching on Wikidpedia for information on Irans Military. Not a great source of Information, but all the same..... What gets me is the reference to the peoples militia, or the Baseej...... 11'000'000 million people, that's alot of guns.

Horseman, very good point. I agree.

The cheap, easy to get at oil is a thing of the past. It's the hard stuff we need to get at now. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/01/20/60minutes/main1225184.shtml There is lots of oil to go around, but it's the cost due to consumption that's gonna do us in I think.

I wish the same sort of response could be directed toward the Liberal Ontario Government. Dalton just spent 219,000$ to change the provincial Logo. Why? It's gotta be a Liberal, I know how to piss taxpayer money down the tube, mentality. Is this taught at the liberal party meetings? Do the...

I think they are after our water.  ???

Looking for Jeff Dalton. Ontario Regiment, Cougar driver, I believe. 1990 to 1998 or somtime in between. Army Cadet in Pickering before his stint in the Reserves.
