My worst moment, though, would have to have been when I had a good 30 minute or so conversation with a guy about small unit tactics thinking he was refering to Shadowrun/d20 Modern/some video game, then suddenly realized through his tattoos that he was a Marine and he was talking about real life. I bet he was probably wondering where a pudgy guy like me learned about Standard 2x2 Cover Formation...


Bah, that happens to me all the time. Then I just say "My dad was in the Corps" and people shut up. :grin:

Did anyone else read "corps" as short for corporations?

In Singapore? If the other person is a guy? We don't even bother, maybe we'll ask,"Which unit?" But that would be it.

I don't know which scares me worse...the UB or Aztechnology selling to the US, Canadian, and Japanese governments...

The Aztechnology one is not nearly as disturbing as the UB one... Why in the world do they need a Bio-sketch from prospective ministers?

I'm considering purchasing an 802.11b capable PDA so I interface with DSF without having to boot my PC when I'm at home.

I was listening to The News Hour with Jim Lehrer, and he referenced "Super Tuesday". Two guesses as to the first thing that came to mind.

I know what you mean. When I heard it on the radio, I thought the same thing myself.
