    No family to speak of, so I'll probably be eating turkey out of a can watching the latest downloaded ep of BSG or Smallville.  God Bless all you lucky people out there that have someone to share these holidays with.     Merry Christmas to all.

    Either I'm out to lunch and not typing in the right search questions, or no one's asked, so far, so here goes....     I know of a few unusual or foreign driver positions and taskings that are only open to specific Jr Ranks ranks.  A few examples I know of are all the CO's Driver spots...

  Um, and you are looking at...?  Perhaps I'm just not squinting enough.

    I think the knot people use varies.  I've tried the (Full) Windsor, and ended up with this honkin' huge ball of hard cloth diggin' into me lucky char- I mean, into my adam's apple.  The four-in-hand is, in theory, the correct way, but it is always lopsided.  I use the half-windsor.  It's...

    I've seen those silly things.  You literally have to shove them through the shoulder flap, all the time making sure they stay perfectly straight and aligned with the seam at the bottom, and that you don't bend th metal.  Another thing yoiu can do is to carefully mark EXACTLY where the holes...

    Lot of talk about families, how they're handling the separation, how the member handles it, how the member gets help from the family on returning to Canada...     Very nice and interesting.     But what do singles do?  What is there for singles besides going to the mess every night and...

    From  WWII history book:     "Uh oh.  BOHICA!"     -Bend Over, Here it Comes Again.

    For anyone that likes to download these episodes, I get them from the newsgroups.  Much faster and safer than any peer-to-peer downloads.  I've got the entire series now.     Thanks Karl for that, I forgot about that one.

    For those keeping track (Wainwright + single = no ***** life), I have a partial list of known Cylons in human form.  Anyone have any others?  Here's what I have, in no particular order:     1.    Good-lookin' guy: interrogator from the webisodes.     2.    Guy from the space station...

    Aka CMTC?  Last I heard, 500 vehicles and countiing.  I don't think they're being created with steel wool and knitting needles.  SOMEONE has got to be losing them.     A few of everything from every unit across the country?  Sounds like Whole Fleet Management to me.  Not that I'm...

    So I been cleaning out my garage, right?  And I looks into a box I been haulin' wit' me from the old Griesbach (in Edmonton) days, a box of schtuff that I never looked in for a long time 'cause it was supposed to be junk.  And whats do I find?     Some cool stuff, that's for sure.  Well...

    Of course; sorry about that, I was temporarily narrow-minded.  I was thinking about people that try and use it to their advantage and smear the rest of us.  In fact, a couple of years ago in Edmonton a young fellow was caught trying to forcefully pick up girls in a downtown mall.  It hit...

    Is this AR cadpat what the OpFor guys are wearing in Wainwright?  It LOOKS like the same stuff.

    I kinda wonder to myself if wearing any kind of cadpat clothing in public is a good idea.  People will assume that such a person is in the military.     If this person is, then obviously they will know that mixing military clothing with civvies is asking for trouble.  If this person is...

    I still run across guys that can quote lines from STRIPES.  Gotta admit, the rifle drill scene near the beginning is still classic.  And just where does a guy get a motorhome like that?     Cheers!

    Yup, I definitely agree.  I started this topic thinking I would get a couple of responses, but the number of responses and the stories are fascinating.  The stats have straightened me out as I was expecting results quite different.  I would like to thank every one of you for sharing your...

    IMHO, it all went to heck in a handbasket and not worth watching any longer when they started bringing in professional players for the Olympics.  Are any other players professionals?  Aren't all other events for dedicated amateurs?  It's all about money, greed, personal status, and all the...

    Rare?  I'll say!  I know a few of us will be thinking of cold showers after that.  LUCKY guy!  I'm sure that things will slow down workwise once he gets back, and of course there's all that MOOLA he's going to make that you're not supposed to know about  ;).     If only there were a few...

    Ladies and Gentlemen:     I hope this may be an interesting poll.  This came out of a conversation I had with a senior member on my bus during a trip.  We discussed the challenges and difficulty facing military members of either gender in maintaining a relationship in the military or with...

    If'n y'all come out to Wainwright (the centre of the training world, seems like  ;) )  gimme a shout.  I've been looking for anyone that plays and drinks beer; if for no other reason than to get the boys together in an otherwise empty basement and make our own tunes.  I play bass; doesn't...
