Roughly six years ago, I was in the Corps.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
I'll give it a shot. This is a fairly old picture of me, back when I was a Cadet Chief Petty Officer in my HS NJROTC unit. It's out of date...I have since recieved more ribbons than this. I also have nine medals not shown too (though I'd wear eight; one is a double). Not that it means much compared to a real military uniform, but hey, it's what I had, and I was proud.
When I get my NROTC uniforms (turned in the app today, wish me luck!) I'll try to post them here so you can see me in my Midshipman-y glory!
One final word...BRACE YOURSELVES! It's a lot like a close up, and it's large (don't have any way to make it smaller; I already cut out half of it, including the medals I had on there, but I wanted to leave the ribbons); and I am not exactly a pleasent face to look at IMO.

Mad: Yes, you're cute. Apparently all the bois have beaten me to this, but I'm sure you're well aware of it anyway.
Einy: ROTF!! You mean, Aly got it wrong? You don't think Jabba's a hottie?!
RogueIce: I don't know why you give yourself such a bad rep--you'd be absolutely adorable if only you'd SMILE! Sheesh.

Legs huh? Hmmmm...let's see what pictures I can find of me...

Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either.

Thanks.
And they told me not to smile! What else was I supposed to do?
Ah well, maybe in my Middie gear I'll smile.
EDIT: Come to think of it, I got some pictures from the Awards Banquet where I was smiling. And whenever I get that film developed, from the Navy Ball as well. I'll have to edit it though...it involves other people, and don't want to post their mugs up here without their knowledge.
