Hey Eau! Nice to see you

[eau_xplain 2]

This is a special thanx to Matt.

Being a former marine, I understand the stress of the active military life. People like matt are the back-bone of this country! Some people despise the military. Some people like to complain and never served a day in uniform.

Cheers to Matt85

Hear, hear! Cheers to Matt and all those who have been and still are in service.

BTW, Matt and Chad ... hubby was in the marines a long time ago. He only served one term (? or do you call it tour?) though. Semper Fi!

Hey Eau! Nice to see you

Hi Sol!! Trying to catch up since the last time I was here! **pant** **Pant** ...not done yet!

Hey Thanks everyone,

When i get to Iraq, Ill give you guys my mailing address, and maybe someone can send me some cookies or even a Bigmac!

Hey Matt, make sure I get your mailing address too. Do you like brownies?

[eau_xplain 2]

care packages are always nice. Last time I was deployed, my mom tried sending me brownies. Although it looked like diarrhea when it arrived, it was still delicious.

OOppps... I'll make sure my brownies don't turn into that!!

LOL yeah we have been busy lately in here I am still cleaning my apartment!! But wanted to check if anyone was around there was you

[eau_xplain 2]

Yup! Here I am! Things finally eased up enough at work for me to get on here!

Dang work, get's in the way of fun!

VERY dangerous. The danger isnt worth the little money they pay. But it is fun to be a civilian there

I live about an hour drive NE of new orleans.

We had a vehicle description of some recent burglaries. I spotted a vehicle matching the description around 430 in the morning. I shut it down but when the guy got out I couldn't see his right arm. I drew down on him yelling "Get your hands up! Both hands!" etc.

The guy said "I only have one arm!" I kept my gun on him as I approached him and pulled back his unbuttoned shirt to see a nub. Man I felt bad. Needless to say he wasnt the man we were looking for.

That must be hard to do Chad. You do have to be careful about things like that and you don't want to cause any harm to befall you or the other guy.

K.S. that was an awesome picture! I'd like to lose some pounds myself but I just am not disciplined enough.

And your wife is beautiful!

To answer your question, Chad, I feel like I got run over by a cement truck.

Nagi, I hope you're feeling a lot better now.

Woohoo Chad!!! Cannot wait for Tuesday, when my Dutchman arrives

Wooohooo Sol! I just read your Dutchman arrives today! What time is he coming in? Or is he there already?

He should have been @ Chicago by now.... Hope everything goes OK! I am so nervous... At least I am done cleaning

I hope he calls me.....

Hi, hipsters

The word on the street is that this is where the cool kids hang out.

I have developed a fear of the more serious forums (the AOS forum, for example), and the more positive-minded [sic?] have started dissing me publicly. Not that I could have done anything to bring that on.

So I thought I'd stop by and say hello.
