    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    Well, nothing has been set in stone, nothing really said that way... But like you folks said, if it's meant to be, it will happen. When I come home on weekends, I'll know if we're together or not in the end I'm sure... I have to follow my own path, I realize that more now than ever. I have a...

    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    Well it's all said and done! I accepted an offer for Reg Force Sig Op starting March 31st in Kingston Ontario. They gave me a pretty sweet deal as I go straight to trade training which is nice... The sweety pie up above I was talking about that I'm addicted too at first wasn't going to even...

    Moral vs Manning

    Yeah I kind of expect to have to take some of it in stride. It's Reg Force, not Reserves anymore so it will be different. I'll just try to remember the worst points of my Infantry DP1/QL3 when we go through 'interesting character building' times...  ;) And I intend to be saving money and paying...

    Moral vs Manning

    I just got the call today, I'm heading to CFB Kingston for March 31st for Sig Op training. I'll find out next week if I'm going to be on Pat Platoon or straight to trade training. I imagine I'll be doing some time on Pat just like most new Sig Ops... I'll just use it to absorb as much as I can...

    Army.ca Meeting & Greeting in Toronto

    As long as I haven't been sent to Kingston for training yet I'll be here! I'm told not to expect to do anything with my first few weekends so that might be right around that timeframe but if I am off, I will be there! I've been dying to get out to one of these for some time and almost made it to...

    Canada eyeing reservists to bolster force in Afghanistan

    Back to the issue at hand, I was shocked when I found out how many troops from my unit applied for each and every stream availible. I think to be honest, about 1/2 of our regulars have put thier names in, had interviews with the OC of our unit and are being put forward. I think this is fantastic...

    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    Well, I sort of went with this route of thinking, didn't show this to her in case she felt slightly violated or something (I highly doubt she would, maybe show it to her later...) but enstead I used Army.ca's venerable group of people and experience as a potent secret weapon in Cupid's trade to...

    A question about Jungle Boots...

    Oh true, I should have pointed out I didn't mean he was intelligent for THAT part of it...  ;) That was rather retarded and a good way to get some strange nasty on your feet. I would never, ever do that.... Ever...

    A question about Jungle Boots...

    Yeah, but that same Cpl also got REAMED out by the CSM for having non-issue boots (haha) and no haircut and also something else non-issue. But, he always keeps that C6 running like charm, never complains and always gets his job done... Which is why I think is one of the reasons he wasn't...

    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    Thank you all again for your advice, it's done wonders and helped me out more than you know! Joining the CF even as a reservist, thus far, has been the best decision of my life, and again reinforced by you folks, it is like a big family! Always a buddy, or someone you can count on in some way or...

    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    So honestly you folks think after she gets the flowers maybe (Frackin' flower shop didn't deliver them today) that I should pour my heart out to her? ... *GULP*... I suppose I've got nothing to loose doing that right? If it doesn't work out, I'll simply be at square 1 again, and be on my way...

    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    Thank you all very, very much for your thoughts, opinions and advice... It's... Been very hard to swallow, but I know deep down inside what I SHOULD do... Well, I figured it can't hurt, so I ordered 6 roses to be sent to her house tomorrow with the message as follows: It's a bit past VDay...

    Anyone Else's Enrollment Going So Fast?

    I called CFRC Hamilton today, said I'm merit listed and my file is in Borden just being reviewed by the Prior Learning Assessment group or whatever it's called. They're to determine if I get to skip BMQ and all that... Said hopefully by end of March I'll be in, but no guaruntees... We'll see!!!

    Matters of the Heart - Tearing me Apart!

    Hello folks, I'm really not sure if anyone can offer any insight or help with this, but I'm so bloody torn I have no idea what to do and it'll be life-changing one way or the other! So I'm slated to go Reg Force in March (not official yet, but they adv me 90% chance before end of the fiscal...

    Battlestar Galactica (Beware....Possible SPOILERS! read at your own risk)

    AAhhhh, that's a good idea even. Something almost like a Destroyer or Cruiser. But a direct-engagement vessel enstead of a Viper nest... I imagine there's still a lot more down the pipe comming yet, but even still, should have let a bunch of us write some script for them haha! I'm sure it would...

    Battlestar Galactica (Beware....Possible SPOILERS! read at your own risk)

    What bothers me about this whole series, is that they drastically obliterated most of humanity right off the bat! There could have been so much more, an entire season done BEFORE the Cyclons nuked the crappola out of the 12 Colonies... Well maybe not a whole season, but at least we could have...

    Israel denies plan to attack Iran with nukes

    And I believe in this case, quite possibly that this could turn to a hot war in some fashion a lot easier then the vast great Cold War. Although that obviously came very close to becoming 'hot' also... Just my opinion.

    Bottled water....

    Well Kat, from what you explained of the purification systems in Canada, it seems pretty clean to me! The only real hazard I think in drinking water is the pipes it's going through, say, if your in a really old building or house (like me) and if you bend down and take a whiff of the drain you...
