Somewhere in that quote I'm supposed to get an impression you know what you're talking about. Do they teach econ or poli sci at Texas? :confused: Yeah, despite the fact that sub-prime lending was a pit a lot of Americans fell into, because California has such a large population, we'll focus on...

^^^ regarding traffic in Mission Valley, that's a valid point, I'll give you that. Football games clog that place up real bad. If you're going to the game, then that's fun, but the residents I'm sure hate it when all the street parking fills up.

:watching3 Do you think I hurt his feelings? :eek: I was totally kidding earlier :icon_lol::icon_lol:

;)

Good sir, the word "this" is a demonstrative, not a pronoun. I'm deducting 10 points from your score in the grammar portion of this thread. :D

You have to go to Kilwin's and get some ice cream or chocolates... pretty awesome. Also, why are you not PLAYING golf tomorrow in beautiful Florida?!? Oh well, you're handling alcohol at least, there's greatness to be had in that capacity.

Well, someday wayyyyy down the road you could run for public office and lobby directly for the changes you have in mind. I'm thinking about the same, since talking and writing and informing the community and elected officials seems to have no effect. I feel like I shouldn't watch the wheels...

Totally hilarious, this post. On the one hand people give recommendations of cheap bars with cheap beer in a place like Pacific Beach (sorry to say this but PB is trash) which many seem to like as a corner of SD, and in the same breath knock down Mission Valley (or any other neighborhood)...

Captain Scott Speicher has been a hero of mine for several years--I think I was in 8th grade when I first heard about him. While I was at OCS (and those of you have gone or are about to go to NS Newport, Rhode Island might appreciate this if you don't already know), I learned that the USS...

Sweet, if check-in, medical, and BOLTC all take about 2 weeks, looks like I'll be looking at the possibility of OHARP approval since I'm waiving IFS. :icon_smil Thanks for the info guys.

^ Thanks very much for the help. I'll just fly home from Naval Prison Newport, Rhode Island and then make the drive out to Pensacola and if I get the opportunity to turn right around and do OHARP back home, well then woo hoo! But if not, I'll have my car there. I don't mind the road trippin'...

So should I fly down to Pensacola immediately after graduation, do the DIVO course and then fly home to get my car? I live in California so at some point a huge road trip will become a factor... What does the current status of OHARP assignments look like?

For RECENT graduates of OCS, how much time were you given to report at Pensacola for API? My graduation date from here is 24 April and I'm curious how long I'll have either here in Rhode Island or back in California (if I'm lucky enough to fly home for a bit). Would I have to be in Pcola...

OCS vs. RTC.... OCS wins. any questions? :)

So are we going to be class 14-09 or what? I couldn't get any sort of answer from my recruiter, he didn't have a clue. Anyone know for sure? I have a lot of people asking me about my address but that part is missing...

^^^ Sign me up for a mop, I've got some drool to clean up...

Good to know that in the state of Texas, as long as you're a minor, you can commit a pile of crimes and you won't be arrested--heck, the police will just take you to the station to be picked up by your parents! Considering your *vast* legal background of "how they deal with minors and...

I think you mean to say IDEALLY you'll want to show up 100%... not much he can do if he's already sick. Sonic, have you tried asking your OR to delay your OCS date because of your cold? :D I'm joking. But don't worry, my girlfriend's niece just coughed all around me, so if I get a cold in the...

This along with anything your recruiter gives you should be your Bible until you arrive with us at OCS. At that link you'll find all the Admin docs you need to bring, what clothes/personal items you can bring, where to stay until Sunday, where to go for check-in, etc. If you're getting shin...

No offense here, just pullin your leg

ah... *sigh* you come into the house of AW with such talk...? :eek: You couldn't just say, "I'm not too interested in being a pilot," "my interests don't lay in Naval Aviation," etc.???? "zero interest"? I no has understand your ranguage! :icon_trou I weep. I'm leaving in a few minutes...

Alright, so should we call you "Lurch" ?? :D:D Just kidding. Go post on the 01 FEB OCS class date thread :icon_smil Congrats on your final select!!

^ every month. Therefore next one after February is March :)

Matt, welcome aboard, we're glad to have you. I've been hearing that us aviation guys will go straight to Pcola following graduation... I was originally told we'd be heading home afterwards, but my OR said today, "no, after graduation you'll check in at Pensacola for leadership [and IFS if...

Damn straight my friend! We'd have been an Honor Class of legendary repute..... haha I'm kidding. Dude, don't throw in the towel just yet. See if you can get another perspective on that ankle and possibly some different therapy other than a dang brace on your leg. Let me know what develops...

Have you taken your ankle injury to a sports clinic? Sometimes (perhaps frequently? :-P ) doctors are prone to go overboard with rest, supports, and extra garbage to restrict motion following injuries. After some tendonitis in my shoulder during my senior year of high school swimming, I was...

If you buy one of these, not only will I be your best best best friend ever, but I could also be your prime suspect in a possible firearms robbery...

Hey we would have figured it out sooner or later! haha just kidding. Did you really want me to keep that secure? It's not to late to edit all of our posts... How's your memorization and PRT stuff coming along? Are you driving from Philly?

So when this guy suspended the Constitutionally-protected right to writs of habeas corpus in 1862 in order to, among other things, protect the capitol, does that mean he "abused the system," too? It's not an abuse to keep these dirt bags more than an arm's distance from the American...

^^^Sonicboom CONGRATS man!!!! That's outstanding! We'll see you on the 31st then :-) Somebody should post an unofficial tally of those of us who are heading for 01 FEB Of us Airwarriors, so far it's..... Mark 23M SNA Non-prior Chris (sonicboom) 22M SNA Non-prior Sherv 26F supply Non-prior...

^I agree with the obvious point that releasing them would be a MAJOR liability, but what if placing them before the American legal system also comes back to bite us in the ass?

uhh fraud? What happened after that? I hope you beat some major ass for that one. Also, wouldn't the bankruptcy fallout be cleared up if you showed that it happened without your authorization?

Two insightful posts. Unfortunately, in addition to the world, they pertain to the American people, too.

To everyone who is board pro, I wish you the best of luck!

^ Yes. If you want it bad enough, it's worth your best shot.

You won't know until you try. Don't give up just because it may sound like you won't have a chance--I wouldn't be where I am today if I listened to that. Keep us posted.

KILLER idea, sir. I'll give it some serious thought. *end threadjack. I'll go back to my corner until I have my warfare device.

Yeah, various paperwork issues crop up with many packages at various points (lol yes I am painting a broad picture for a broad range of applicants). I myself had a few issues beyond my control that arose but that's why there are processors and computer systems to handle our paperwork--even...

How true that is; I liked that post the best. One of those moving parts is the credit history itself. While I agree that you miiiight not have a whole lot to worry about (based on the other things you mentioned that strengthen your score), I would definitely NOT say that it will probably have...

Thanks. The pucker factor went up a bit.. haha. I guess we'll all just need to look extra good then. Or extra tortured... not sure. Let's just avoid attention and kick ass with what we're supposed to do.

Yeah I just looked (at usnavyocs.com), there's one other SNA so far, and the rest are Shoes, Supply, and a PAO.. It appears we are the youngest. It'll be interesting to meet everyone and see how we all do. BTW, so far (at least on AW) it looks like bizlake, myself, and more than likely...

sonicboom, I wouldn't be worried, with a post like this this, I can't imagine them not accepting someone like you. That made me laugh a ton. Keep the faith, you'll be a final select in a few days.

D'oh! Forgot to include my details. Mark, 23 Male. Non-prior (although a hell of a USNSCC Officer! hahahaha). SNA

Aside from Old Man Winter and myself, who else is headed there for this class date?

Hell yeah, sounds like a plan. Ditto for the other 01 Feb guys/girls if they start turning up on Air Warriors. While I'm at it, I'm gonna start a thread for our OCS Class (you can find it in the OCS Class Dates forum). Yes indeed, there will be much hitting of shit on fans. My friend told me...

haha we posted at the same time. I'll be seein you in the cold of February. I had the same reaction from my girlfriend; I think it means mostly support though.

FINAL SELECT!!! OCS Date is 01 FEB 2009. For my fellow October board mates, thanks for the support, I'm sure the rest of the pro rec guys will be picked up soon. I just found out by telephone this morning. My letter will be here real soon I imagine. Bizlake, I might be seein you 01 FEB.

Well.. you know what to do now right? Re-apply! Do NOT give up. Perseverance will get you to your goal. Again, do NOT give up.

Bizlake, that's damned awesome news to hear! Like one other person, I'm expecting my final select real soon, maybe immediately after Christmas. Congrats my friend, I knew things would work out for you.

I'm not sure of the exact date, but sometime between right now and Santa's deployment (depending on all our respective NRDs). Something tells me we're all getting tossed back a bit. Oh well, keep the faith my friends. haha! yeah as funny as that was, you're probably right.. :yuck_125: the...
