All enjoyed a good laugh about the idiots at Headquarters and shared a few "sea stories".
As I turn 48 this month, I don't know who is MORE obnoxious... the military "reenlistment bonus offers" (especially the Navy for some reason) or the "recruiters" for various Private Military Contractors who E-mail or even call me. I can get into enough trouble without having to fly to Africa or the Middle East for two years to do it. I'm too damned old to be eating "monkey meat" and drinking "non-potable" water now....
