Gib you know i have been thinking about doing the same....probaly would if i still had been in college....
am thinking about signing up for the reserves though or something....
watching all this stuff day in and day out makes my blood boil and makes me want to fight and even die for our country......
before this i kind of thought how sad it is that all these guys are over there -- and indeed it is -- but hey, what a way to go out huh? i think that guy are made to want to go and do this stuff and hey if we die doing so i guess it was meant to be...
this country and freedom -- its much much bigger than ourselves and sooner or later we are all going to go right? and a lot of time i just sit here and gamble or bs or play poker or watch sports -- what a waste of a life!!!! what would i be missing out on if this is all i lived my life for anyway? guess it kind of comes down to that....probalby am in a pathetic state right now...got a good girl but sometimes i think i am way to pre-occupied with watching things while life flies by....
i bet a lot of you guys can feel this too as most of us have our lives revolve around sports....
but anyway...be proud of your bro and hey if he falls, it is sad and unfortunate but he gets to be a hero -- one thing i have not been in the last few years....and i think deep down that is what every one of us wants but it seems like it might be way deep down there....we all have a bit of hero in us that is probably repressed.....
and your bro gets to be one....what an honor!!!! He is truly living in my book......
