well I'm glad I never fit in with 'normal' from the get-go. I can't wait. I love sweat, heat, shovelling, digging, climbing, mud, rain, loud noises, dangerous environments, not having to shower for a week and be covered in mud and dirt from head to toe, staying awake for 4 days straight, baking...

Are there any policies or rules against juice or tea if you supply yourself? I like to drink green tea all day (substitute for water) and have a daily serving of Himalayan Goji juice purely for the health benefits that these drinks provide. This includes a 30% enhancement for stength, endurance...

I have all my testing done and am on the merit list waiting for the call. Is there a deadline or anything for getting into the 14 Aug BMQ? I'm up to 10 k running and actually lost 7 lbs. through the course of my PT. One more question, I was told by my recruiting interviewer that the infantry are...

http://www.newwave.net/~haught/Koran.html For anybody who knows anything about these 'radical' Muslims and their faith it should be so blatantly obvious that they make no distinction between Canada and the U.S. that they should wonder what the hell is wrong with everybody else. It doesn't help...

My recruiting process has taken over a year and a half already and I am still waiting for a call. I can say that 3 things have hindered the process for me: 1. Requesting additional medical information. 2. An unpaid speeding ticket. 3. A bad debt. I can say that even with all the hassle and red...

All testing done and everything is good to go. My recruiting interviewer told me, regarding the credit issue, that as long as I have made payment arrangements that the creditor agrees to in writing then it's not an issue: piece of cake ;). He told me as long as I get that taken care of and get a...

;)

Can someone please summarize life on base for me. What is it like? What is there to do? What kind of jobs are available? How much does it cost? And one other question that may sound ridiculous, but seriously, what kind of food is available? I am considering taking residence on base between...

I heard somewhere that the military slogan is "Hurry up and wait". I've been waiting since November and the forecast is calling for more waiting. Stay focused. Don't count the days it only goes slower. Count months instead ;) and before you know it...I'm in the same boat :) Just keep your eyes...

Now, Springroll or anybody who might know, seeing as you have a little background information, what do I have to do to get rid of this skeleton in my closet? Will working really hard this next month and giving all the income to the creditor make any difference on my actual rating? I can work and...

I am already working on the problem, by the way. I was just venting some frustration. I will be in the August BMQ come hell or high water. :salute: Oh and just for the sake of saying so, I wrote and managed the program that handled my friend's finances, invoicing, employees, taxes and assets. I...

It depends on the person I guess. I don't live for money, never have, never will. I believe it corrupts a person's soul. Judging a person on physical fitness and stamina is a good judge of character: it takes discipline and perseverence to sustain a healthy, active lifestyle, especially in this...

If I take my PT and med on 31 May 06 will I be able to make to Aug BMQ? Anybody have an idea? I am going infantry.

I will apologize now for what I am about to say. Sorry. I just don't understand what credit has to do with serving your country. I think it's retarded, personally. I don't have any credit cards or mortgages, but I do have a few debts from a few years ago that now will restrict me from serving my...

I would have to say that the 'giving your life' part of it refers to the fact that you literally belong to the military unit. When a civilian makes the decision to bear the uniform he or she is giving up civilian life to serve as an instrument in the military. The training is required so that...

The solution is go back in time and change everything. Simple. Or start from scratch here and now. There is no turning back from this though. There is no fixing this problem. It has to be erradicated and replaced. Unfortunatley our world is so dependent on the oil and the money that it will...

It's all about the dollar $igns the CEO's see and can afford to do virtually anything they so choose to get them. Then they go and buy million dollar houses and cars and treat everybody who isn't as rich as them like pieces of shit. But that's beside the point, if Iran really wanted to do some...

This war is nothing new. It is simply the modernized version of an aberrated conflict that has endured from as far back as history books can recount. This fact alone makes me wonder and scrutinize those history books because, truly, they only tell half of the story: the winner's half. With...
