Depending upon where you went in the world, that may have just been foreplay ...

I'm glad I went into the navy. Would have hated to be in the air force for four years sitting around on base for four years in Texas

Inter service rivalry - please.

I valued all (still do) my buds/budettes in the various armed forces.

I was Army Infantry, but Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, etc. they're all good.

I always (still do) thought why on earth are we expending energy being obnoxious to each other?

I tried like hell to get into the Navy, but they wouldn’t take me.
They found out that my parents were married.

Knocking Texas?

Sounds like it to me
We don’t take to that shit too good round here.

Knocking Texas?

Did I say I was knocking Texas? NO! Let me type it S.....L....O.....W.....E.....R ..... F....R.....You. In the navy, I sailed the seven seas, going from one country to another. Mostly. Where as, had I been in Texas, I would have been stationed for FOUR years at an air force base for, FOUR FRICKING YEARS.
GOT IT????

Knocking Texas?

No. Just you!

Texas is a great place to be.
Seeing as how you're in Colorado and spent 4 fricking years on a boat, in the middle of nowhere, I guess you don't understand.

Lives in Colorado.

Never goes out shooting.

Gun Kidd is that you?

Generally speaking, it’s not smart to pick fights with staff members.
But you know that already, don’t you?

It was a SHIP. Big difference, Festus. And by God I will not back down to some clown who from the first day I joined this forum you've raggin on me. If this is the best you can do, is to be butt hurt when I mentioned I wouldn't want to be stationed for four years on a tarmack in Texas, so be it. I served honorably for four years. How about you?? Oh I forgot, you are a forum commando. Thanks for your service...... NOT!

This is where I usually weigh in with something in the middle.

Today, I think not. This thread makes a starting a dumpster fire in a chemical plant look like good decision making.

In that vein, I bring you this to consider:
