Still, you know what I meant.

The only thing that I can think of which is more impossible to believe than "mud became man" is angels that just "were". 73, de Hans, K0HB So where did all the matter in the universe orginially come from?

Who knows, keep an open mind, maybe they are just raising us like a head of cattle--and butchering time is near!!! terrified-look! I think "The Outer Limits" already did that story. ... do I think that is really happening? Heck, I don't know if there is a supreme being, I don't know if we came from a mud puddle, how should I know, if you ask me--all the choices just sound crazy, ask the aliens! chuckle Well, I don't care if there are aliens tourists on this planet or not, just as long as they don't take our jobs, rape our women, or try to masquerade as retired Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeants. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

.com: snip At least on the six occassions I got to stand in front of a Marine officer in regards to my rank, it was prefaced with the words "To All Who Shall See These, Greetings..." Your communication deficit is acting up again, Dudly; If you are referring to form DD-216MC, it begins with, "To all who shall see these presents, greeting:" Just for kicks I googled your misquotation; very interesting..... Guess Frankie of Silliland wasn't listening when the repeated the words about "Special Trust and Confidence"...Because that's exactly what being a Marine is all about. And Frankie couldn't hack it... Just like everything else you know about the Marine Corps, you couldn't even get a promotion certificate right..... and you claim to have six of them? I don't think so, Dudly. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

wrote in : snip And BTW, notice the title of box 11: ".... years and months in specialty...." IOW, that time doesn't include boot camp or the three months I had to wait at 29 Palms for an opening in the BE course (during which I worked as an assistant for the supply officer working on the TICKET computer system -- an educational mainframe system that was under development). Come to think of it, if you had several different specialties (as you claim) then you would have have a LIST in box 11 of -your- DD-214; and you would have also known that those times listed were for time served in the MOS indicated. You bungled again, Dudly. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

The same kind of guy that I try to avoid being...the loud mouth at the end of the bar telling everyone how he stormed the beaches...Laguna Beach...Redondo Beach...Panama Beach... Try Myrtle Beach and Huntington Beach -- the latter should be required duty for every single Marine! Didya catch the part where he says he was ONLY a "####bird PFC"...?!??! Sheesh...even Lennie made E5... I made Lance Corporal before I could get the "cash sales" smell out of my uniforms... If that's true then you must have skated right through boot camp..... especially the gas chamber. Corporal on the second round of cutting scores (and that was in the rank-tight Avionics MOS of 6616) Very impressive, especially when enlisted in the only branch of the military that doesn't use cutting scores for promotions. ...Sergeant in less three years of my arrival in boot camp... Which means you were promoted only twice in the 15 years that followed. A record to be proud of, I'm sure. Some resource on USMC policy Frank of Silliland turned out to be! Your ignorance about the Marine Corps is exceeded only by your third-grade rhetoric -- hopefully that Pee-Wee Herman seminar you attended didn't include tips on public masterbation. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

K0HB:
There is no such thing as time... time is something humans make up to deal with their universe--there is only movement...
