The California situation was strange. I too left by ship but from San Diego. Our pre-ship training was pretty intensive so I had no real civilian contact. I came back by air and went to Camp Pendleton for a haircut, clean uniform and 're-orientation' (ie, they didn't want us to kill anyone...

Thank you for the nice thoughts but I'd really like all of you to do me a favor. If you know a Vietnam vet, go out of your way to thank him personally ... it may be the first time it's ever happened. Most were sworn at, spat at, screamed at and called names that I can't repeat here. What made it...

To all my fellow grunts in the USA and around the world, happy 241st. Still looking good. Semper fi, my brothers.

Try limetorrents. I switched to them this year to avoid viruses and it seems pretty good.

I wonder how many of you have actually had to endure an interview. It's happened to me a few times (business related stuff) but only once by 'live' media, not print. The CNBC office was nice, the producer was very pleasant (and cute) and I was well briefed on the questions that were to be asked...

Hi y'all. I don't post often (crippled hands make it difficult & I'm too damn old to use all those code letters you younger folks understand) but I was surprized at the lack of Boyce's name being mentioned much. Here's a guy that ran a real fast 40 yard dash (2.38?) with a broken toe. Hey, I've...

I'd like to thank someone special, but before I can do that ... Although I don't post, I've been a member here since 2004 or 5 and I visit this board at least twice every day. I've been a Pats fan since the early 70's. Ignore my user name - I'm a Yank all the way: born in N.H., early years in...

Wow.... this is a thought that caught me by surprize. While I have been lurking around this site for a long time (great place to keep up with my Pats), I've never felt impelled to post before. But I may just have an insight on this issue that is worth sharing. I was a VP at one of the...

I am a long time Pats fan. Born in New Hampshire, early years in Maine and teen years in Connecticut ? well, I didn?t have much choice, did I? Football wasn?t very important to me in those early days as there were much more critical things to think about (girls). Then I joined the Marines and...

Go to www.viidoo.com. All the major US TV channels are there - free of charge. Don't know if the Pats will be on one of them this weekend but I hope so. Streamtvnow is having some problems ... lost their subscriber database so even some existing members can't get logged on and watch the...

There may be a solution but there are a few issues. I have heard wonderful reports about 1 service from users all over the globe, but I was able to join the sevice only yesterday and have not been able to test it yet. So it may not work as well as I've been told. The most important issue...
