Good morning everybody. Wait, nobody’s here. Anyway, a guy should have experience in these three areas:

Hey Wise. The girl that most left an impression on me was a girl who was studying theology. I learned that nobody is perfect and as in the movie 40 year old virgin,”never put anybody on a pedestal”. Was I wrong or what! This woman did everything under the sun. I learned exactly what I don’t want in a woman. It was a good experience. As I always heard, ex’s are ex’s for a reason.

My list of Must Dates Are:

Jersey Chasers i.e. Groupies of any sort (NFL, NBA, Entertainments, etc) (They will make you appreciate regular women so much more)

Career Woman (They will motivate and frustrate you at the same time)

Veteran (You can learn a lot from her and also it will keep you motivated either way)

Eye Candy (Do this just for fun! This is like a new car, you just gotta show it off no matter how the payments treat you !!)

Good Friday morning!! Hmmm, I don’t think I’ve dated a lot of guys that I could classify into type. Except maybe one in college. He was the “You just don’t understand my art” type. And I was the “I sure as hell don’t cause this ish is ugly” type.

Happy Friday everybody!! And good morning at the same time.

I once dated a guy that made my head hurt b/c he was so insecure. Every little thing had him running off a million questions and claiming he felt “disrespected”. I was so glad that was over with, I actually had to break myself out of the habit of explaining everything I did. He was sweet just had a few issues that made it hard for us.

As far as must dates: let me think on it and I’ll comment in a lil bit!

Not many men stand out, that’s what makes the ones who do special. I have attracted very nice looking ones, but they are not necessarily interesting or know how to treat a woman. The last guy stands out for the best sex ever, but that might be because for women, it does get better as you get older! If you can find someone who wants to do it with you!

Good morning to the WLB and the MLB

One guy that left a lasting impression on me was a graphic designer that I once dated. We meshed on multiple levels. Only one problem…his fiancee’(long story). However, the creative level that we shared was unlike any other I experienced. Hard to explain that connection in words…it just was-

If you could list certain types of people that we all should have a chance to date, who would make the list? 1.) I would like to date a body sculpted, tatted up, motor cycle ridin’ bad boy because he’d bring out my alter ego. 2.) A Preacher’s Kid (PK)…he could very well be the same person as the bad boy. But, we’d make church on Sunday. LOL. 3.) But, for the long-term…I’d like a man with a creative mind. I have a strong affinity for men that can express themselves artistically.

I’m off to do community service at the shelter today. Y’all be easy & have a good weekend.

Happy Friday to Everyone!!

LOL at NSG types!!

In college I dated Mr. Smooth Operator he was everyone’s friend and very sociable. The thing that I liked most about him started to wear on my patience and trust.

I dated Mr. Career he was very ambitious about his career and I admired his tenacity. His philosophy was to work hard and play harder. There were so many positive things about this guy….too bad he moved away!

Then I dated Mr PhD he was very analytical and an overall great guy! We would spend Friday nights at Borders. He was an avid church goer and read the Bible. The problem with Mr. PhD was he would get caught up in the paralysis of the analysis and we would argue about nothingness.

Now, I’m dating The Doctor he is a combination of all the men above, well, he’s NOT a smooth operator. But he’s very ambitious, social, and analytical.

The most important characterists/types are those that will love you faithfully and respect you greatly.

OK Lady J, I’m leaving you alone. You can re-appear, and even speak when not spoken to, LOL. No hard feelings, just enjoying a light Friday on the job.

On topic: I’ve not been in the dating game for a long long time, but I’ve dated enough. And each of my previous examples (thanks for the kudos Lady Dark w/Dimples) are noteworthy because they help me to see people for who they really are. I’ve seen parts of myself in some of the WLB examples already. It’s a valuable education on the opposite sex that I hope will soon pay off. That said, more examples:

The “Cougar”: I believe another example titled this lady the “Veteran”. Nothing like an older woman who appreciates some youngness in her life! She’ll pop that thang on you and then hit you with some life advice. Good and gooder.

The “Student”: They are young and their world is tiny, but they don’t know that. Helps you to put things in perspective.

Every woman should have the honor of dating Mr. Everything. But just keep in mind that “It’s to be good to be true” is very much the truth.

Then there is Mr. Get-Around, who will drive over 50 miles out of the way to go on a date to avoid running into people that know him.

Mr. Plain and Simple. Period.

Last but not least Mr. Understanding and Accommodating, which is my biggest challenge.

TGIF and good morning yall

I’ve dated white collar to blue collar to no collar. I learned something from all of them whether it was about myself or something in that person I just didn’t want to contiue seeing. One guy that stood out the most is The Greiving Widower now this joker played my sympathy to the fullest. Long story will tell at another time, can’t forget Mr Receipt Man the one who tried to sue me for dates he took me on and Mr Popup oh my oh my, every corner I turned he was always there.

I have nothing manadatory on my dating list this summer, since I have a lot of projects that will keep my mind clustered (which is a good thing).

okay back to post on topic

In college I dated the clingy guy, every move I made, everywhere I went I swear he was there. That child bout drove me insane, I felt like I couldnt breathe! Taught me that I love, appreciate and need some ME time every now & again.

The military guy, great personality but was trying to marry a sistah within 4days of knowing me! I was like HELLZ NAW. He didnt see why I would “bother” going to college when he could take care of me. Needless to say this didnt last long cause I got tired of arguing w/him about my life. Taught me that I dont want to be the one sacrificing my entire life just to say “I’m married!” Nor do I want to be controlled.

Lastly was the love of my life, the guy who was everything I said I didnt want. He went to a different college, was very active in his student government, athletic, shorter than what I had dated and he was a renaissance man (and since I love the arts he should have been perfect). He was my Darius Lovehall (for you ‘Love Jones’ fans). I was head over heels in love with this man. I never would have thought that HE would have had me wrapped up the way he did but he was a great guy. For some reason, our timing was always bad. He taught me alot, he was ambitious, the oldest in is family, very responsible, goal oriented, etc. Mo getting misty eyed reminiscing…

Good morning bloggers. Hip hugs to the WLB and elbow smash to the MLB.

On topic: All women are great learning experiences for men. Even a straight fruitcake chick can teach you something, if nothing else what to avoid. Actually women have taught me alot in life. Mainly they are stronger than most men give them credit for and being soft on them is an insult. Funny things is, women are never soft on a man. Heres a real life lesson I learned. I was stationed at Ft Stewart (about 21 yo) and I was at a store with a friend and I was looking at this chicks chest. She was about 30 yo with some d’s. Anyway, she caught me, mainly bcause I was staring with my mouth open, and walked over to me and said if your man enough to ask I’m woman enough to show you. I asked and she showed. We were friends the whole time I was there. Now, IF I want something from a woman I ask. I don’t even care if she says no. I want her to know exactly what it is I want and she can decide what she wants to do. Some women say I’m very direct but I think they appreciate it more than they resent it. I wish every dude could meet a chick that brings it like that. I forgot her name but I never forgot her lesson. Anyway, one of my learning experiences.

PP I read your posts late yesterday as I had to run out. I think I know what your challenge is. You think someone gives a flying fug what you feel. Your wrong. Nobody in this whole world cares how you feel, except you. Everyone else only cares about what you produce. I think thats a fantasy alot of women have tho, that someone actually cares how they feel. Test my theory right now. Go to your boss and tell him how you FEEL. Tell him all the many feelings you have and thoughts and how your hurt and blah blah. Then wait for security to escort you out of the building. Also, if you gave up to much azz in the past and you think your gonna balance it out by holding out on your future mates you are in for a rude awakening. I am interested in findng out when this little experiment ends tho. (I went back and reread this post and its going to come across as mean or harsh but its not meant to be. I’m laughing but I’m serious. The same applies to me. Nobody cares how I feel, they only care about what I produce. The difference between me and you is I am 100% comfortable with that fact. As I have said before, women have the luxury of living life in their fantsies.)

Sometimes I like the ride. Next, let’s see, Mr. FixIt, truth be told, I love Mr. FixIt, he can fix anything, aaahhhhhh.

Truth

Nobody in this whole world cares how you feel, except you. Everyone else only cares about what you produce

Man, that’s a pretty jaded outlook. I am truly sorry you feel that way. Sounds to me like you need a new circle of friends. In my group, 95% of us really, truly care about what is going on with the others and how it has affected them. Personally, I don’t associate with many people that don’t have a caring heart. If you do and you show it, then we will probably get along for life. I know one of my biggest problems is caring about others, almost to the point of neglecting myself.

I do know what you are talking about, it is what I have been referring to as the “Preoccupation of your own existence.” It really hit me in the airport one day. Everyone was headed toward baggage claim. I was just kind of taking note of who seemed to be intuned to the others around them. All of the sudden this lady in the middle of the crowd just stopped and it sent a wave/ripple effect to everyone around her. This hole just opened up, and it slapped me in the face how when we don’t take into account those around us, then we don’t recognize the impact our actions make on others, big or small.

Do you think you could answer this question about me based on what you’ve read in previous posts?

UM Truth What?? I don’t live in a fantasy world. I know some people don’t give a flying hoot about another person’s feeling, I’ve been guilty of being the same way myself. And as for me “holding” out and waiting for a mate that’s what I choose to do and it’s not b/c of giving up too much “azz” as you so graciously put it, it’s because I have a choice. That’s right a choice something that we all have. Honey the world is not just black and white there’s a rainbow of colors to choose from.

Crazy you are scaring the hell out of me. Actually you are starting to reveal your age. Bruh, believe me, nobody on the face of this earth gives a ish what you feel. Production is the only thing that matters. Check this out. Lets say your a real caring, sensitive, dude, kinda like yourself. You tell a woman how much you care for her and how you feel daily. The thing is you can’t produce. No income, you can’t handle your business. Guess what, that chick (even though she loves you)is gonna be outta there like 20 going west. On the other hand you have a dude that can produce but may not be in tune with his feelings. He’s always going to have an audience. Now, even if the chick that loves you stays she’s going to be looking at ol boy because women respect a dude that can produce. Even if they don’t like him they respect him. If your spending all of your time in your feelings you can’t spend time producing. Unless your a hairdresser. Are you?

I have 2 close partners. If one of them called me right now and said he was shot I don’t “feel” one way or another. I may have hoped it wouldn’t have happened but I don’t feel like he feels. He’s shot, not me.

Finally, if you feel for everyone you are an emotional sponge, sopping up all the ish they throw out. Thats not good for the soul. Honest question: Do you have low self esteem? You don’t even need to answer becuase every soft azz dude I’ve met had low self esteem.

You say its jaded I say its liberating. Jaded is thinking that someone cares for who only cares because it benefits them to do so. Liberating is knowing life is and always will be a shark tank. People will eat you up if you let them. Listen to some of these chicks. I simply say if you turn to bite me I’m biting back. Actually, I may bite you first if its to my advantage to do so.

Another honest question: No joke. Are you gay? You sound gay.

The one person I could always bank on was me. The love you refer to is the ish they sell on the oxygen channel. Its funny you talk about love when your trying new and creative ways to find it.

Truth Like others have said, everything has shades of gray. You’re great for noting extremes, but most people like folks with a little balance to them. I respect a man who can “produce” as well as “feel”.

What I DON’T respect are men who run roughshod over everybody believing that it makes them more of a man. It doesn’t. What I DON’T respect is a man who cries more than I do believing that it makes them relate to me better. It doesn’t. The great responsibility of having power (and empathy) is knowing when to use it.

They do study on your kind all the time: In the mind of a serial (you fill in the blank). Dude it’s sad you feel this way. Someone who ever they are has ripped out your conscience. To say what you’ve said, I thank God that everyone doesn’t feel the same way you do. It sounds as if you don’t care about yourself either. The worst person to be around is someone who don’t care about themselves. I choose to be in the company of good people and it’s not a large crowd either.

Foots You need an ambitious men who knows what he wants out of life..both professionally and personally. You need someone who can take charge of any situation because if he won’t you will! You need someone who will show you new experiences…in every aspect of your life. You need someone who is sincere and values family and friends. You can appreciate someone who wants to spend time with you, but also provides you with some ME time too…

Did I leave anything out? I know I’m right!!

Truth…any prostitute off the street will do…all he has is to do isleave her some money (production) on the table and she’ll keep coming back! Because we already know he doesn’t care about her and she doesn’t care about him. He’s not trying to please her physically so financially may be the way to go!

Kinder I think someone with a good heart and is straightforward will work for you. I think you’re pretty out going and fun-hearted so someone with a sense of humor (oh yeah, you too foots) will keep you laughing. I think someone who is very compassionate and considerate will have your heart in their hands.

Jake/Musing sounds like good guys so they need someone like me! lol

A lot of us women have to “produce” too, and if we don’t want to get bitter, we try to keep having some feelings. I dont’ need a hug or a cry either, but they are nice to have - crying is the body’s way of releasing that stuff chemically so you don’t have a heart attack, etc. at a young age. Being strong doesn’t have anything to do with whether you are a man or a woman; I have dealt with some intense stuff in my life, especially the last year, with no SO around; do count on my friens just for some comic relief, etc. Some people are stronger because the ARE sensitive. on the club suggestions whatever, ok, 40 and up have any suggestions? melo, if you’re under 35 and you think 47 is young, you have a great life ahead of you…

Life have issues, we can’t run from the issues of life no matter how much money or brains we have. Black clouds have followed me and some are forming right now, and no I don’t turn over and cry I get up and keep going because I know the power that lies in me and what ever I may face I can face it and come thru it.

All of this talk about love, we need to be honest and realize love starts with self and being selfless so if you want to smell the roses, understand that your fingers will get pricked by the thorns, that’s with anything you do. Love hurts at times and cost you something.

Seriously though, all I am going to say is, pay attention to what you read/hear, but keep it in perspective. There are many words of wisdom, humor, and intrigue on the blog and many people feel comfortable pontificating things they don’t get a chance to say to people face to face. All of us have different experiences and perspectives and NOBODY can really say what is right or wrong.

Don’t go getting all emotional on me. SJ just summed it up for ya. When the black clouds come its time to get going and alot of folks don’t have that gear in them. Their to busy feeling sorry for themselves. Low self esteem is a big cause of that.

Your right PP we all do have stories, and truth be told you don’t give a dam about mine as I stated in my previous post because theirs nothing in it for you. Once again, where all selfish bastards masqurading as loving adoring people.

Nipples your right, a good ho will do now. I have stated many times I don’t want to be married now so azz is all I’m concerned with.

Now if I could just find a dude that can put up with the no-nonsense part of me along with the part of me that is prone to eating cotton candy in bed and doesn’t mind that I dance when I eat something REALLY good, then I’ll be set!! I’m mad that you already claimed Jake though. I don’t think he’d mind a little pink sugar stuck to his taco meat. LOL!!

Lady where does being hard come into it? I’ve worked with people that would officially be considered hard and even they weren’t hard. They were able to talk, rationilize, etc… They have feelings, like we all do. Being hard is not the correct word. Being realistic is a better word. I know without a doubt that not everyone is looking out for my welfare. Thats what sets me free. I don’t have to give a dam about them either. Even someone that once looked out for my welfare can change for whatever reason they see fit. I may just be better at recognizing that moment whereas some of you will hold on hoping that things are going to change back, “For Love”.

Truth

First of all, no I am not gay, and just your insinuation that I am, well it shows a lack a maturity. Am I sheltered, far from it. I grew up with an alcoholic father who would get violent when he drank. I am the one that would step in and have fist fights with him, just to keep him focused on me and not on my mother or sister. I was also the counselor for my parents, they would not be together today and he would not have become a recovering alcoholic if not for me. I even prevented dad from being arrested at the age of 14 while on vacation in Orlando, the bartenders could not believe I was 14. Neither did this 20 year old nanny from Holland, that’s another story. If I had not been that person, they would have split and dad wouldn’t have ever stopped. He is now a minister, for a year. I have seem him grow from a Back woods, redneck ready to brawl at a moments notice into one of the most caring people you will ever meet. I have been through alot in my 30 years, and it began at a young age.

You talk about not being able to produce, being a nice, sensitive, caring guy makes me strive for what I want, which means I do produce. When do I know that I developing feelings for a WOMAN? When I see myself wanting to become a better man. The day I quit growing as an individual is the day they take me to the morgue. Don’t worry, I know why I scare you, it is because I have people in my life that care about me, and you dont’ seem to have that in your life. I do feel for you and understand your outlook a little more. As for low self esteem, nope. No problem there. I don’t act this way for people’s approval and I don’t really mind if they don’t approve, I will not change. I will still care for them even if they don’t care for me, it’s just my nature. What reason do I have for having low self esteem? I make great money, I am athletic to the point to where I am suprised when i loose at something, I am smart, funny, have a great group of friends, I am artistic(guitar, mandolin, drawing, etc…), I am an original, you will never find anyone like me. I always say, I am not normal, normal is boring and we tend to forget normal, however, we always remember those that are different. I hope someone comes along and is able to show you that there are people that care, you might not notice them, but they are there. It sounds like you need some prayers for you man, don’t worry I got your back.

SJ

The black clouds have been around me for a long time, but I tend to deal with those situations with one easy phrase from a cheesy a$$ movie. “When there are problems and there is a solution, then there is no reason to worry. If there is a problem and there isn’t a solution, then there is no reason to worry.” Problems don’t bother me, it is life, I deal with it and move on. The things I have dealt with in the past are the same reason why I became who I am today, and I wouldn’t change it for the world. Now will I continue to improve myself? Hell yes, nobodies perfect. this is also a big reason I am still single, is that I can’t stand to be with someone that can’t handle the pressure when the sh!t hits the fan. Me, I just put on my golashes and sludge through the crap until it’s gone.

Life experiences makes us who we are, and I don’t doubt that some don’t care how I feel, I’m sure many people don’t. But The Truth is I know someone does care, may not be who I want to give a flying flip about me, but somebody cares. “Nothing changes back, either it’s Love or it’s not.” Gosh these roses smell so good, let me touch it, Ooouch, that hurt my finger. Oh well, guess that’s what I get for trying smell them roses. LOL

(Just sitting here thinking about the Title and not so much the entry itself.)

Mandatory Dating…Dating is Mandatory.

I haven’t been on a real date in nearly 7 weeks. Why? Because I have allowed other things to completely engulf my time therefore falling into the mind-set of “I’ll get back to it”. I said that 5 weeks ago. It’s been seven complete weeks now. It is so easy to fall into that rut. And it’s not you are doing it on purpose or care less about your S/O or you all’s relationship. It’s just that you can become so preoccupied until weeks and then months pass when you look back and say Wow where did the time go.

That’s the challenge of being with an understanding and accommodating mate. You have to remain mindful of their needs also. Really though…just because they are that way doesn’t mean there is not a limit. There is always a limit that anyone can be pushed to.

From my experience it started off with absolute necessities. Then other things came up and I thought in my mind “Well he understands”, which he does, he understands. But after a while you find yourself on the borderline of neglecting. I promised myself long time ago that I would not let myself get too caught up to where my partner starts to feel “what about me?”.

There I was going along thinking we are getting ready to go on vacation and we will have that time to spend together. But at the start I never stopped to think that it would be over a month before we actually went.

My motto: Prioritize but minimize. (Just some random thinking)

I realize how everyone’s definition of manhood, strength, and masculinity vary so so much. I also think that sometimes guys mask their niceness and after a while it eventually gives way to reveal the misogynistic narcissist lurking underneath <-not on my mandatory date list at ALL.

I think really smart women end up with men who understand and respect them because that is what they/we offer to them. Men who are compassionate, complex, complicated and beautifully human. We want life partners and mutual respect and we DO NOT MIND waiting for it. At least I don’t.

Wise Now, getting to the point where a man like this trusts you is not always an easy journey, but I imagine that it is worth the trip

I’m sitting here listening to Glenn Jones’ “Here We Go Again” on my iPod reading your comments. Pontificating and such. And so in this song, he’s describing his woman, right? He’s telling her:

“Girl, you’ve got something special, it makes me smile whenever I’m with you…understanding and sensitive is what you are, you’ve my everything baby, girl, you’ve stole my heart. ….Since you’ve came in my life, everything nice, floating on a cloud. You’ve been more than a lover, you’ve been my friend. And with you by my side, I know that I can win…”

Now that’s sweet, but applying that in the context of your text, a woman like that definitely can earn a man’s trust. My Big Mama always told me to “be sweet”. Sometimes I have problems with it, but I strive to be the type of “sweet” woman that Glenn describes.

I’m still in this happy mood…

Demi that is the coolest ever. I am very happy for you, hold onto finding one special person is so rare it hurts. You know how I used to roll with the five finger rotation, I can say now I’m down one great one. Neither of us are perfect but let me tell you its been the best ride of my life. I realize every man I dated and bump in the road prepared me for him. He gets me and lets me simply be me and the odd thing in is I want him to get me.

I can see where Truth is coming from when he states that no one really cares about you, they only care about what you can produce. I’m not saying I agree with everything that he says, but I can definitely see his point.

People in general are always trying to prove themselves or their value constantly to others. Case in point, I can be in a setting that is homogenous in terms of culture and notice that everyone always feel the need to state facts about I, I, I, and me, me, me….I’m this….I’ve got that….etc., but on the other hand, I can be in another social circle that is opposite of the previous group and for the most part the conversations are always the complete opposite…i.e. tell me about you, where did you go to college, etc.

So in short, I have noticed that people are status driven and whether we want to admit it or not, people in general want to know how can I benefit from knowing you. I do not agree that it is sexes based either. I know that since this is a dating blog most people would prefer to reduce it down to that, rather than acknowledge that maybe it’s just a cultural thing but I guess that’s a topic for another blog. That’s just my .02

Hello bloggers….I’ve been lurking on the board for a while and decided to comment on this one. Like most brothas, I’ve dated Ms. Crazy(Why is it that they’re the main ones with that good? But thats another topic). Also Ms. P.I.-who should never be left alone in your place, and the one I let get away. She was perfect now that I look back on it, but we were at different stages….On a side note, I read that Jake and SJ3000 are looking for Ms Fat Booty, mine turned out to be Ms. Crazy so im keepin it moving on that one for a minute

Foots girls or grown women you let The Truth at em and their gonna be heheheing like a little girl when I get thru. Give me a letter. A, B, C, D, DD, G

SJ about the military and prison thing. They were cool because I always knew what I was dealing with. Its the chick with the pretty smile and azz like wo that’ll ruin your life.

MSU lets do this. Always assume I’m laughing because I am whether I put lol or not. This is entertaining. Thats why I come back day after day. Its like crack. Now on some points I post and it may seem radical. Thats ok. It seems crazy to me when I hear what some of you women go thru. Either way its a learning experience because I get to learn from you and you get to learn from me, or maybe not. LOL It gives me more insight into the female mind, which ultimately helps me get into the female pants. See, we all get something from this. At some point there will be another category of dude.

The locals loved those chicks and took me and my boy in like we was fam. 5 course meals, great drink, no cost. They put us on a train home with some hot azz wine and oreo cookies because we were broke as hell after 3 days. Had to go to the base and get an advance. It was all good tho. When were you in? WTF is in North Dakota. I thought thats where they stored excess dirt. LOL Hey, that spanish club I joined from that sight is a bout to shut down. Plus they were only gonna meet once a month.

Truth I had to get one too; I don’t even remember what it was for…It might had been for a car. LOL!!! I totally forgot all about that.

~uuggh!~ There was absolutely nothing in N.D., I hated it. You know you couldn’t get BET if you lived off base? They specifically blocked that channel. Is that crazy or what??!!!

You N.D. is all flat lands and there are barely any trees around. I mean you might see a patch here and little patch there…but for the most parts…there are no trees. So this guy told me that when he found out he was going to N.D., he was told that behind every tree was a beautiful woman!!! LOL!!

Lady you gotta be flexible. If the hard thing doesn’t work try something else. LOL

Law you’ll appreciate this. Me and my boy went to frankfurt with $100 and got on the first hop with 2 seats. We ended up in Brindisi and met one of the chicks on the bus to town. We started talking because we had army gear in a air force city. Thats when they went to work for us. Looking back it was crazy as hell. It was so cool tho. When were you in?

WD and Mo from now on when I act out play along with me. MO don’t hide the twins. The Truth loves a nice pair of twins and you all know my arms get tired and start dropping down. SJ I’m hitting Transformer this weekend too. We’ll see whats up on monday.

Mo 4 swimsuit tops comin up. Thing is the shop near me only sells the little patch type. Real little patch type. Question: How’d you figure out it was me that took your tops? On the arms thing, sometime when I get real emotional, like when I hug you, its exhausting and my arms just seem so heavy, such a burden to carry, so I try to find a nice round, juicy place to rest em. You understand, right? Oh yeah, I’ll take a nana split.

Law I was over there from 82-85. I was in the army from 80-86. I kind of think of it as home too in a crazy kind of way. It was the first place I’d ever been that wasn’t violent. It was so peaceful. I really learned alot over there. I never knew I could do so much. I never knew I could excel at so much. I’d never go back in the army but it gave me so many great memories. Good friends, great places. Doesn’t it give you a new perspective on life? I still stay in touch with one of my buddies from over there. I think the military should be mandatory. 2 years for everyone. What do you think? Did you take advantage of the education program to get your law degree? Are you a lawyer?
