I think that the problem here is that Chewy is assuming n=1 in an entirely different context than the current reality and doesn’t have the intellectual depth to recognize it.

"Giving up" doesn't mean cowardice at all, by the way. It is the recognition of futility. Some people just cannot do certain things. This field is full of people who cannot serve in the military, but wanted to, and found a similar environment. 9D4, your injury is unfortunate, but from what you've shared, I am reasonably confident that any hopes of military service in the armed forces of the US are dead. Yes, that sucks, but it is better to recognize that and move on than what-if it.

Maybe it's time to once again get off topic?

I've been thinking about a new toy. It might be time for another Jeep.

I thought the same thing two weeks ago and came home with a 55" smart TV. Want to buy an old chevy and fix her up soon.

I just love the LA Times app on my cell phone....Of course it makes perfect sense that when I get a push notification for breaking news, and I click on it, half the time it doesn't even launch the app...the other half the time it just goes to the front page (where you scroll through which headlines you want to read) and invariably, the push notification they sent is usually buried under a half dozen other news stories (push notification for an MCI bus vs big rig crash on a local freeway? We'll just put the article as the 9th headline, below articles talking about the Rams wanting to build a stadium in Inglewood...nominees for costumes designers awards...an article on technology making "smart toothbrushes"....yeah makes perfect sense on how to organize your news app

This chainsaw is getting the better of me. I never new we had it and I'm 20 years old, oh and I'm pretty sure it hasn't been started/ran since I was born. My work is cutout ahead of me.

I know nothing of it? I was an 11b and 31b. You're right I don't know anything. Is it an uphill battle for him? Yes. Impossible? Not yet. I was PDQ'd when I first enlisted and fought it all the way up to the Surgeon General of the Army and won. I know a thing or two about being pushed around in the waiver process.

You were military police? Why oh whyyyy lol

So after 3 hours and a complete disassembly of this chainsaw it turns out I overlooked the most obvious part. The fuel line was completely rotted. Oh and its 4:15 pm now and I've been working on this since 9 am.

MP, MP, don't arrest me,
arrest that leg behind the tree,
he stole the whiskey,
I stole the whine,
we did this all at a double time...

(great now I feel dirty....every unit I've been in has been the kind where saying "hooah" could easily get you pushups and all runs were release runs, formation running only ever happened when the Bn Cdr wanted a Bn run so we never did any cadence calling either lol)

First shift solo after clearing FTO starts in 2 hours. Here's hoping that I don't get lost on the way to any of the hospitals.
