Just got back, bridge is still there. Maybe it's just because I'm tall enough to be only a few ranks back from the front, but I didn't think it was that bad. It was a good time to make some wise cracks to all the depressing PLC kids in my platoon that never smiled. Have to admit though...

When do I get to go to General Javas though??? :)

I'm guessing since you are applying for PLC-Law, and you are posting in the Marine forum, you are probably going to want to replace "push ups" with "pullups" (or more properly: flexed arm hang). Although Pushups are an excellent way to improve your upper body strength and a regular pushup...

You guys are missing the obvious answer: Ship them all to a remote island, give them each: Two (2) MRE's One (1) Swiss Army Survival Knife and just to spice it up, something random: Chef's Hat? Scuba Mask? Lava Lamp? I dunno...totally random. Then we film a reality TV Show: "Survivor: Al...

Iraqi Insurgents Propose Cease-Fire Excerpt: I call shenanigans.

lol, I love it. "Hey, can you guys help me out...and while you're at it, go f**k yourself!"

Correct, the RAG for that TMS, as well as AH-1W is at HMT-303 located in Camp Pendleton. There are HMLA's: -167, -169, -267, -269, -367, -369 HMLA-167 and HMLA-269 are located in New River, the others are located in Camp Pendleton. The west coast squadrons are on a regular 6-month UDP...

Active Duty HMLA squadrons are located in Pendleton and New River. Yuma has 3 Hueys for station search and rescue. As far as I know, San Diego does not have any Hueys. I believe Miramar's station SAR is comprised of 46's. Hueys are utility aircraft, missions are things like SAR, CSAR...

Sorry if this is just semantics, but regardless of where you fill it out, you should save it.

But how will memories of the banana show last a lifetime if you don't save them on film??? :) Oh well, you will always have the exact change she gave you as a souvenir...

I thought 100% NT was just wherever the (g)Avi mech w/ a hangover put the green sticker on the gauge.

Pretty nice truck...for a Chevy :)

That is fking awesome. Xerocool: Something to keep in mind: A car is a TOOL. You need to determine what your needs will be and then figure how that tool will meet them. If you sit down and list exactly what you need. Then what you want. You will probably have a good idea of exactly...

If you get 20 pullups then you will have time to smoke a cigarette at the halfway point of the run.

Somehow this seems strangely relevant... http://deathvan.ytmnd.com/

OJ was #2 on my list. I was going to put Chappaquidick on my original list as well...but I decided 4 influential flagrantly lawbreaking Democrats on one list was enough.

Meh, there are a million more examples of wealth/power buying "justice" I just chose to limit my list to some of the most flagrant examples (murder, assault, pedophilia, etc...) in order to keep my list a reasonable size.

Grand Jury failed to indict Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) after she hit a police officer... Apparently if you have money you can: 1. Commit Perjury, be disbarred for it, and still suffer no legal ramifications... 2. Murder your wife and another man at your house with a knife 3...

He reminds me of the dipsheits who go to other countries and have this dialogue: "Gimme a beer" Bartender: ???? "GIMME BEER" Bartender: *Points to bottle of Peppermint Schnappz* "GIMME BEER YOU POS!!!!!" Bartender: *Starts freaking out pointing to different alcohols" "BEER BEER BEER DO YOU NOT...

It's always "I may not agree with what you are saying, but I'll fight to the death for your right to say it"...right up until it gets personal. I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution. And the Constitution makes no caveat in it's blanket freedom of speech/press, despite how...

Is there a HUGE difference between the UH-1Y and the SH-60B? The Yankee would be faster at the expense of less endurance and less payload w/ the benefit of retaining commonality w/in the HMLA Squadron. Too bad there aren't any (at least I believe not) Huey drivers on here, would like to hear...

I prefer Weaver myself and ultimately that is important I would say. (That is: The one that allows you to shoot more accurately and more comfortably is "better.") However, when I was taught, we were told to learn isoceles if possible because it is supposedly: More Stable - Due to the feet...

Isoceles may be a better stance...but Weaver get's all the ladies.

I will be going if my knee injury can clear up.

I hate to be Mr. Negative, but there are quite a few redflags here... First and Foremost: I do not believe there are any active enlisted recruiters who are active on this forum - so advice given is: a) Heresay and/or Conjecture and b) Meaningless. None of these people can get your...

Just throwing this helpful tip out there: SAVE YOUR EPSQ! You will have to do another at some point (probably) and you will be happy to have alot of that information down in one place - it will save you a lot of time tracking down phone numbers/addresses/people/etc... when you do your next one...

Blah, hippie is short for hypocrite.

Way to dig up some research. I wonder if that would have an effect on the case. Especially since it seems to be based on the fact that he is being "falsely portraited as being against the war" Also: Why is this just now coming up? That movie has been out for awhile. Sgt. Peter...

During the Clinton years for a period of time we experienced "over-employment" (where the unemployment rate dipped down too low) and it hurt the job market. There is frictional and cyclic unemployment that are good things that account for much of the 4.7%. Bottom line, for the most part, in...

Hrm, I would look them up and find someone to call. It is harder for them to ignore you when you are on the phone. Or even come down in person. It's your career, you need to be proactive in your pursuit of it. The email address might be outdated, or maybe whoever received it put it on the...

Have you tried calling UCLA and asking them about their cross-town agreement w/ said affiliated local college?

Yes, government instituted policies work wonders on assisting the poor and homeless. Cabrini Green was practically a summer home resort.... -- The government cannot and should not be expected to "restore the economy." Having a vibrant capitalistic system does that - not government mandated...

You know, it's really farking annoying when government documents have obvious misspellings. When you are typing away on Airwarriors.com and make a mistake, no big deal. But when you are recording something that is going to be on the DHS website, maybe it should look a little more intelligent...

LA Times

A) Diplomats are representatives of their respective countries. B) Saying that he didn't physically "pull the trigger" (as it were) seems intentionally devisive...he was obviously complicit. Here is the article you apparently didn't read (that was posted by the person you are debating against)...

You are cognizant of the fact that since 9/11 several tens of thousands of National Guardsmen have been stood up to augment both State and Federal security, right?

But, without that we never would have had one of the greatest gangster movies of all time...

In an interview with Congressman Tom Tancredo: The marines did a little (exercise) just north of Idaho. One hundred marines with three drones and two radar stations controlled 100 miles of the most rugged border you ever saw in your life. While I was there, just one week-end while I was there...

[THREADJACK] Don't take this as a knock on you JetJunkie, I am just curious why we, as a society, have gotten to the point where only white people can legitimately be called "racist." Isn't one form of prejudice "stereotyping" wherein you take the actions of a few members of a group...

Here is a little trick I have found works well against retarded liberal college kids: Lonestar155: #1 What is your definition of "racism"? #2 How does that apply to anything said in this topic? Or do you actually need empirical evidence to support the supposition that most illegal aliens are...

Concur, which is why the rate of incarceration for violent criminals is something like 2-3 per 100 violent crimes.

Since this is sort of devolving into a discussion on illegal immigration in general, it is really a 3 part process: 1. Enforce laws on the hiring and employing of illegal aliens. With no work available, desire to come here will shrink. 2. Remove all people who are currently living here...

Who would want to drive a porsche...?

...Duty at Yuma was miserable... Yep... We wouldn't need many troops to patrol the border if they were utilizing motion sensors and UAV aerial reconnaisance as well as regular patrols.

I'm left handed and with my Glock 17 I pull my middle finger back and hit the magazine release with that - it's not too bad. (I also used this technique with the M9 as well which I just kept in it's R/H configuration)

So a good retort in defense of someone getting a DUI today is to respond that, yes, other people, some in politics, have gotten DUI's in the distant past? I guess we could defend Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) and her violent assault against a Capitol Hill Police Officer with a reference to...

The only reason you should be going to PLC is because you want to be a Marine Officer... Becoming a Marine because they "are hand (sic) out pilot contracts like candy" is the wrong answer and will lead YOU to a lot of grief.

Can't always tell from the screen name, apparently you haven't seen the myriad high school or college kids who have screen names that are like: "Jetpilot" "Helicopterpilot" "pilotpilot" "Imapilot" "<-pilot" "airforceofficer", etc... ad nauseum. or my favorite...
