    Thanks a ton to all! I've pointed them to this thread, it's too much to just tell them at this point. Please keep them coming! As usual, 'Hide members stepping up and helping like nobody else can. Really, really appreciate the guidance!

    Navy Service

    Looking for some wisdom: A neighbor's nephew took his ASVAB and did very well, and was offered a slot in the nuc program(enlisted). Since I am an old Marine he asked me what I know, which is zero. I imparted some thoughts about military life in general, and life aboard ships, but that's about...

    What do you guys (Marines) think of this?

    If she's the meu smaj, who's gonna make the damn sandwiches? Or is her office going to be adjacent to(read: inside) the kitchen? Just kidding, put the pin back in. Really, though, I would not have a problem with gender equality if it was real, but it's not. Remember Kara Hultgreen? They...

    Has anyone had a similar problem with dehydration or am I wrong in my self diagnosis?

    Great thread here- we all need reminded of things like this once in a while. I drink too much Red Bull, too. Guilty as charged. But I know when I have something coming up I need to get straight before-hand, so I'll go with a bottle of Pedialyte the night before, and water/Gatorade just before...

    "Poser" or "Real Deal" Help me to understand

    He's FOS about the SERE, too. A clearance comes with a 75 year gag order, basically for life. That's where he may have substituted his own dreams. The others are correct, lifetime clearances are not given. As our veteran population(Viet Nam) continues to dwindle, it becomes easier for posers to...

    Rifle purchase issue and question

    Yeah, outside my AOA. Around here all sentences start with "Dude, like...", so we lack in cultural awareness. Graham- good call on the F&F, totally accurate. Beretta- +1 on Graham's #2 point. If the FFL is unwilling to do the transaction, best to figure out how it can be done the right way...

    Rifle purchase issue and question

    Beretta, You ran up against a skiddish dealer, plain and simple. When attempting an interstate xfer involving a restrictive state, some(most) dealers go Nancy Reagan on you(Just Say No!). The dealer is required to not only follow laws of the state where transaction occurs, but the state of the...

    NH90s Replacing UH-1s in New Zealand

    I live by a busy airport, so I pretty much only hear commercial aircraft, but once in a blue moon the "whop-whop" can be appreciated as they approach and navigate around the airport. It's a siren's song to me now, I drop whatever I am up to and begin the search in the sky. I love that H-60...

    Rhodesian Ridgeback

    If it's the wife that's dead-set on getting this breed, make sure she agrees to the exercise regimen! My friend had several; 2 were given to him by people who thought they wanted this breed, but soon found out it was too much. My friend is non-stop energy, so it matched well, but he absolutley...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Just got myself a ka-bar, anything I need to know?

    I have several, you will like it for just about everything. I have one I use as a "beater"; opening beers, driving nails after too many beers, throwing into tree after more beers. Oh, yeah, and it's caped/gutted/quartered/boned many pigs and some elk; you'll have Popeye forearms after awhile...

    Hunting & Fishing Hunting in Germany

    NNN, I hope all goes well for you, I have one bit to add: It sounds like your son is of age where it's time he took a hunter's safety course; you should take one with him. It's great father-son time, he won't feel left alone, and will do better on the test portion(which are easy if you just...

    New Supergun

    OK, stop practicing, reloading, buying top-line gear. You won't need it. 'Smart Rifle' Begins Shipping to Gun Owners This Week I know, combine the yahoo idiots with ABC and you get what you deserve by spending any time there anyway, but it caught my eye, so I read it. I especially like the 3...

    Guntucky?wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

    Remember how many reality spin-offs came from "Survivor"? It's the same phenomena with the gun shows: the networks have realized there is a large market for shows like these(Pawn Stars and the Tortuga guy spin-off, the miltiary arms family, the Colorado family, the Louisiana family, just to name...

    Maggie’s The excuse creator

    Go straight across for the first 6 or 7, good laughs, especially top row. I recommend complete sobriety prior to use of this list... The one you use drunk likely would be the funniest, but when the -now- ex tells you what you said, well... I guess you would laugh twice! (Until the alimony...

    Maggie’s Had an Amazing Dump today

    Glad you put up the pics! I thought you meant another kind of "dump." I had a pretty good one today, too, but I wondered why you were telling us about yours. Congrats on the dump!

    Hunting & Fishing .338 Lapua projectile for hunting big game?

    For hunting just about any big game: I've gone to Barnes TSX, and I don't plan to go back. No lead, easy to find, not outrageously expensive, plenty of calibers, as accurate as any other production hunting bullet.

    FYI

    They already installed them here. I thought it would be easier if I did not have to escort the guy into the back yard each month, put the dogs in the house, etc. Convenience always has a price.

    Jodi Arias

    She is as yet unsentenced, as the jury alone can decide that fate. I asked a bunch of guys here at work, and it was unanimous: they would all do her, even knowing she might pop you in the shower. I think it's likely just horny-talk, but why in hell are we watching this? If it happened in the...

    TEBOW'S FUTURE?

    Omaha Beef Indoor team just made an offer- $75/game! I'd take it if I were him- it might be the only offer he gets this season, at least until the injury bug hits some team hard, and they need anybody that can call signals.
