Well, I must say, GOD DAMN, I'm getting nervous. this ain't like any new job.

I don't think my mind has fully grasped the implications of going to basic training. I can watch Full Metal Jacket dozens of times and have yet to think of "soon to be me" state of mind. I think I'm in denial about me leaving exactly 7 days from now. I can imagine myself at 12:00 next sunday stepping out of my house, and driving up to Seattle, but beyond that...

on the upside, I going to have money for a new car.
Anyone have any suggestions? I go hiking alot, so the car has to be able to travel off road easily.

I keep looking at a Subaru Baja.

I worked with an American who was in the military before. He said that on xmas his drill sgt. said, "Alright men, you've worked hard, and I know it's tough being away from your loved ones over the holidays. So Uncle Sam has a president for you. He's giving you muscles. 100 extra push-ups maggots!!!" i lol'd

Aye, but the basics are the same. I won't be learning combat manevers, I won't learn how to fire larger calibar weapons, and I won't learn to kill.

I will be learning more life saving techniques, I will have a harder swimming tests, learn more nautical term, and recive more firefighter training then normal military.

but the push-ups, marching, yelling, running, cleaning... all the same.

if you're picking up some sailors buy the Subaru, if you're picking up girls buy a Jeep.

[xbxDaniel]

Good luck with that and all.

HAHA, sir, you are a fucking riot. I polled my female friends, and though some of them liked the Jeep, most would rather go for a ride in a turbo charged truck car. Buisness in the front, party in the back.

Stay out of my threads. You are not welcome here.

Stay out of my threads. You are not welcome here.

I'm going to rape all your threads when you're gone :)

[Fathom Zero]

I've always wanted a Baja because it has the low ground clearance that is all the rage these days. I don't even like lowriders.

You have my gratitude, my friend. Serving your country is a hard feat and one of a person's greatest honours. I applaud you.

You should get a team of squirrels to pull you on a sled.
