something has been irritating me lately

[libidoergosum]

Some days ago, I posted about learning and internalizing the seven Core Army Values: Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage

parallaxative thinks that those seven values equate to a more sinister set of conditions

To think, I would have know all this first hand if I had gone to West Point...

DUDE!!!! you got a chance to go to WEST POINT?!?!!! I'm so NOT worthy!

Had the full ride waiting for me. My dad was a full bird when he was still in & had it all set up. I made the decision NOT to go when I thought I wanted a family & all that instead of just going hard core & all the way.

Every time I visited WP, it seemed no one was too happy up there!

heh, if it's anything like USAFA (and i've heard it is, only much more so), *definitely* no one was happy there. my better half is a USAFA grad and apart from the odd moments of hilarity, he detested the place. he's glad to be a *graduate*, but not glad that he was ever there, necessarily.

my favorite west point motto: "150 years of tradition unimpeded by progress."

oh, and hi, guy. i think you posted on throwingstardna's site or something. or maybe pouk23's. i found you one of those. i guess you can see my military connection :) you seem very thoughtful.

thank you... Right now it's too early to be thoughtful... i'm just a sentimental fool.
