Time for a new job.

Way back when, when I was stationed in Germany, there was a certain SFC that I had enough of. They sent my group out into the field living in tents in some woods somewhere. Gets awfully dark in those woods in Germany, and I knew that he was going to end up out with my group, and I had enough of him. Before we left garrison to head out, I took an .07 string off of one of my electric guitars and ran it through two good sized bolts (handles), and anticipated a dark woods, if you know what I mean. To make a long story short, JAG did this thing on how a POW could and couldn't be taken, and how they had to be treated as POWs. And, there were MPs there, and as a demonstration, they grabbed me and some other guys to take prisoners. Grabbed us. Didn't ask us. Grabbed us. While some MPs held us, literally, other MPs went through our pockets to demonstrate how its done. You should have seen the look on their faces when they pulled that gizmo out of one of my pockets. At first they had no idea what it was and jokingly questioned it, but after they unrolled it, they figured out what it was and what for, just not who for. While the other guys stayed there being made POW examples of in front of the Brigade, I got escorted in front of the Brigade commander by some MPs, MP commander, some JAG types, and interregated. Ultimately I admitted to nothing, they kept the gizmo, took me back to my Company. If none of that had happened, I fully expected it to get real dark in that woods later that night. I don't know if those guys did me a favor or not.

Get yourself a new job.

Mark

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: The Saga of Grandpa's Tractor - by The following saga is from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. Someone. The saga starts with the following message: Hey guys I have a decision to make. I know what you all will probably suggest and it will probably agree with me way down inside, but here it is. I have a picture blown up and framed in my "tractor room" of a Farmall M. It was my Grandpa's tractor, of which whom I never got to meet. He froze to death getting this tractor out of the barn to pull a truck out of the ditch before I was born. Anyway my dad and aunt had to sell it at the auction, ... [Read Article]
