Never served in the military due to being the wrong age at the right times. Also because they seemed to think that being unable to raise my left arm above shoulder height would keep me from killing anyone.

I respect those that serve and have served especially as two of them were my older brothers. That said I still believe that Iraq was a dumb mistake and Afghanistan was screwed up.

Have a great deal of difficulty disagreeing with any part of that sentence.

Heat? Pete felt no heat..... no worries

Unions can be interesting. On some industrial jobsites I've seen the difference between union work and hacks. Some places care some don't.
