    I actually will be gone for a few days, as it's the kids' Spring Break this week and we are going out to Palm Springs for a few days. Later Haters.

    Sorry, I maybe shouldn't have bursted it so quickly :(

    It would've been more believable coming out of someone else, but you're just too level-headed. My first reaction was "it can't be!" and that got me to look at the date :p

    T2 - You could have just posted the link I used on the PETA thread. It's much funnier in this version, at least in my opinion:

    Don't know I never went to OCS -- I had sixteen tough weeks of OSC crammed into four years at a university.

    You've either one-upped me so soundly that I didn't quite get the joke or there's been a change in terminology or coursework since you went through NROTC. When I was looking at ROTC 5 years ago, going to OCS was considered part of the deal.

    Hmm, a little bit of... persuasion at the hands of Puters' Bane the Third would do wonders, methinks.

    Temporary hiatus for me to attend an out of state wedding - which is turning out to be more like a mini-vacation - see you in about a week. Another one bites the dust.
