O my, I am not even sure where to begin: a) a lot of government officials are corrupt, b) a lot of people in the CF are lazy and, c) put into postings that allow for error, d) many other CF members feel this way or e) generalizations are part of the English language, and how people think and...

Having multiple eyes still does not allow this tuber access to the DIN. However if some kind person who does would take a quick look and note any upcoming course dates for BMO Reg Force RMS I would be most appreciative; and certainly a round of curly fries (or appropriate substitute) would be in...

You are so far out of your lane it's impossible to get back in. I'm sure you were exposed to so much in your entire what, three years of service? You didn't become lazy in the service, you were undoubtedly lazy before that. I detest being personal, but you're an idiot. Mods, if you need to...

There lies the problem. Instead of being put on the bus he should have been put under it. potato

Funny, this is the same guy I saw on a Global documentary last night and he said he saw a guy taken into a building...minutes later heard a shot...and never saw the guy come out. That's not the same thing  as seeing a civilian killed by gunfire......so who's lying....him or the journalist who...

I am not aware of your situation; however, if you are serving in any capacity I would clear it with my COC first before I uttered a single sentence. And I would tread carefully. potato

Nor do I, I had heard them previously and simply copied them from the web to make sure I got them right.  FWIW, I'm not going to engage in a 15 post flame war just because you listen to Bill Maher and I don't, that's silly. We're obviously not going to see eye-to-eye on this! Nothing wrong with...

    But I've often said that if I had — I have two dogs — if I had two retarded children, I'd be a hero. And yet the dogs, which are pretty much the same thing. What? They're sweet. They're loving. They're kind, but they don't mentally advance at all.... Dogs are like retarded children.    ...

    We have been the cowards lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, it's not cowardly.     —Bill Maher, Politically Incorrect (2001) Ya, I put a lot of stock in what Bill Maher says. Not. potato

Yes, if government swung that much based on foot-in-the-mouth problems we would have hourly changes in government.....our own included. potato

From my CFRC, Nov 20th is the last Regular Force BMQ intake until the New Year. Fires back up again Jan 2. potato

<streeeetchhhh>  That's me sticking my neck out. From what I have read and saw, John Kerry is still considered a war hero. Swiftboat controversy aside, if nothing else, he had the guts to serve when many others didn't don't, including the US Commander in Chief. For that itself, in my books, he...

My CFRC doesn't have the info, and as we know, has a lot more to worry about then just me; I'm just trying to do some of the work on my own. Thanks for your info. potato

Just wondering about dates for upcoming regular force RMS Clerk BMO/QL3 courses in Borden? Feel free to PM me if you don't want to post publicly. thanks in advance potato p.s. I'm a RSBP, that's why I'm asking

So we now kick people out because they have an impaired charge, when did that change? In my time I saw more thieves who had money problems or morality problems, not coke problems. potato

Some things take more time then others. Have you expressed to them that you are frustrated and getting close to giving up? If you haven't perhaps they could at least give you some insight as to what the progress is on your file. Use the magic approach...don't b!tch......inquire. potato

Nothing wrong with being an "arse". However, if he/she/they are serious about making a commitment to the military why would they question if they are being "taken for a ride" so early with getting back in?  In my experience and I speak for me only...many who released early in their contracts...

Ahem. Is "Juristat" not a publication issued by Stats Canada? I think most of us that have a clue realize that statistics can be made to look however you want them too; and when it comes to our government agencies all bets are off. If you really want a good luck at the justice system try reading...

Man if you think they are taking you for a ride already, why are you even bothering? Your files may be transferred electronically or slipped in a courier envelope and sent out that way; things can come together very fast.  Either way give the process a chance to work before you jump on the "poor...

That screeching sound is the rails slowly coming off what is was a good thread. Too bad, very interesting reading for a while. potato
