Good seeing you Tony! Your surprise bomb touched me & made my year!! The hand-made box was awesome!

Cav, it would be one thing if what you said was the truth...but it's not!

hey, bro! glad it got there okay and that you liked. 🙂 kick back, light up one of them thar smokie treats and post like a fiend! lol

one of the things i'm keeping an eye on is how the military is going to fare when soldiers are getting paid (even with the increase) peanuts in comparison to civilian contractors making obscene amounts of money to do jobs that soldiers previously did. the "hey, he's doing my old job, but i'm making crap and he's making $1k PER DAY."

some contracting is smart, absolutely. but already privateering is causing a dent in re-enlistment; when re-up time comes, soldiers are saying "bye bye military, hello cushy, well-paying contractor job!"

it'll be interesting to see how this eventually plays out.
