Haha, it always feels weird driving with my boots on. On a side note, its even more weird parking next to the commanders ford focus...

:iagree: It got to a point where I would drive to formation in my shoes, park and put my boots on.

Ya! I have commanded many a sub and sunk many a ship! Max depth is 165 feet..so they have sunk me many times as well..

I worked with a young, former Marine and and one day I dropped a piece of candy on the floor..Remembering the Seinfield ten second rule i picked it up and ate it.. He was shocked! I told him that my distant uncle was a Marine who served in WW2 and remembers getting down and drinking out of a mud puddle..

I told him i could only conclude that Marines today are not as tough as they were in my day!!!:stirthepot:

Just sayin....:tup:

The time has been shortened to the 3 second rule.

I get an extra 7 second senior citizen allowance..:)

( I was hoping for more of a reaction from the Marines on the site..:stirthepot:)

:) Old AF guy here..

How was the Army Air Core anyway? Haha, we had a cheif that just retired, and we would always give him crap about being in the AF when it was the army!

Hey just curious (not trying to start and argument) why I military for the most part do not tip well at all. I live in Austin tx and bartend/serve at a place that has quite a few people from ft hood that come in. And its pretty widely accepted that you are screwed once you see a military I.d. or credit card.

No idea, and have never noticed this or tipped bad. I have always followed the double the tax rule, or gone higher if excellent sevice. I always tip $2 for a mix drink or $1 for a beer at the bar. Honeslty though, ater I spent 8 years in Japan, I had a hard time getting back into tipping again, as you do not tip in Japan for anything.....

Yeah there definitely pros and cons of a tipping culture

Please tell me someone has seen this guy running around in person there... :bowrofl:








:inoutroflpuke: :bowrofl:

That's hilarious!

(moms rule is 5 seconds)

back on topic! happy to see all our veterans and current enlisted etc chattign it up!
:usa: <3 :tiphat:

:tiphat: I'm partial to the AF :tup: Hubby, Father, two nephews, and a cousin :tup:

For the most part we don't make a lot of money. People think that military people have lots of cash and that's far from the truth. I lived off of 1800 a month and barely made ends meet. Uniforms are freakin expensive, gas isn't any better, and in my case not a lot of people liked to live on the ship. Hope this helps.
