oh i'm over it, for the most part.  i've been out for just over 2 years.  took 
me 6 months to realize that i could mouth off to someone and actually NOT get 
in trouble for it, cause people that were my rank i was ok with, it was those 
above me that would really tick me off and wasn't allowed to talk back to 
w/out getting in trouble.  now that i'm over that part, i'm actually pretty 
mouthy and won't take $%^ from anyone, except online, because winning an 
arguement online is like winning the special olympics...when it's all over, 
you're still retarded.  

but believe me, aside from the crap i had to deal with, we did a LOT of stuff 
in the barracks that we all would've gotten in tons of trouble for, and it 
was all fun.  won't ever forget that stuff.

in the end of April i drove down to Florida (i'm in central PA) for a buddy's 
wedding.  i was stationed with him for 3 1/2 years, and that's when i first 
met him.  i hadn't seen him in 2 years, and out of everyone i met while i was 
in, there's only 2 that i keep in good contact with, but they are both 
friends that i'll never forget.  those bonds are just as strong as family 
bonds.

 how many sand fleas did you hold burial for?

none.  just let them lie dying where they fell!  actually, couldn't swat at 
them or your a$$ would be getting railed by the DIs, so i just kinda took the 
bitings like a man, well, about as good as anyone can take being eaten alive 
and not moving or flinching.  :)

yeah, it's really dark humor, but it's the damn truth!  i mean, really, online 
arguementsthat just kind of sums it up as to how meaningful they 
are...and to anyone that takes offense to that reference, think twice before 
arguing back!  lol

for awhile, get them all hyped...admit it's happened to me before but I
learned my lesson, now i just have fun.

so after the informal introduction (and me getting utterly ticked off 
doing an install).

Hi.  I'm Mike, and i'm a new linux user.  

HI MIKE

I'd tell you what i do for a living, but i really don't do anything.  lost 
my job in January to a back injury and havn't worked since.  After 
getting a nice tax return (EIC really pays out when you have 
children), i got a good friend of mine to build me a PC to replace my 
outdated Vaio laptop, and upgraded to cable all at the same time.  
When all you can do is sit at home all day and take care of 2 kids, 
it's nice to have a decent computer and a screaming fast 
connection.  anyway

not being a lazy bum forever.  I'm enrolled at Bloomsburg University 
(which is in central PA) for the fall semester.  finally getting back in 
school after 4 years in the military and a few years supporting a 
family.  can't wait!

was told about linux by my friend that built up my computer, and 
decided to finally check it out, as it was either try linux or get him to 
hack me a copy of XP.  i decided to take the legal approach to an 
OS, and i'm sick of using win98se.  

so just a little FYI for everyone so you know who you're dealing with!  
(by the way, all the angry marine aggression is out of my system 
after being out for 2 years...wellMAYBE!)
