    Junk Food In Schools

    I think it's a great idea. I hate seeing these fat civvies eating chocolate bars for lunch. It sickens me. Sorry if this oftends anyone but it's how I feel about it and I feel very strong about it. If it were up to me I'd ban fast food restaurant's and junkfood in schools.

    The Shaving Superthread- All You Want and More....

    Thanks for your replays everyone, I think I got enough info to work on the way I shave and stop the burn. As for the whole topic of electric razors... I have had experience with them and I find that when using electric razors I get even more razor burn from it then I would from a razor. Cheers.

    The Shaving Superthread- All You Want and More....

    How to get family on board

    LoL just show them the pay scales and they'll see how wrong they are. I think for NCM's its minmum 45k a year after 5 years which is good and if you showed someone the pay scale for an officer they would probably sh!t them selves.
