  I could update more often if not for my dial-up at home Yes, I'm at work, and I've been swamped and nonproductive. But anyway, stealing a few moments here. Every time I see a reference to the Army planning to call up more troops, or to soldiers or Marines being killed in either Middle East theatre, I am compelled to drop and press out 25 push-ups. I don't know what this contributes to them, or what it proves to me, or why I still harbor fantasies of striding into the recruiting office and demanding to go to Jump School, even though (1) I'm too old by a little less than a year to actually enter Jump School, (2) I'm openly gay, (3) women aren't allowed in the infantry anyway, and (4) I don't do particularly well with regimentation. Not to mention the shot knees and extra 25 lbs I'm carrying on any given day. Maybe I would post more often if someone actually this damn thing.
