Not going to UPT...will I get kicked out?
Sounds like the Air Force machine is chugging away. Getting the thread back on track, I've had my fair share of days/flights where I sat down with a nice scotch and contemplated whether wearing these wings was the right move for me. But then again as was alluded to in an earlier post, I still get the (Maverick on the motorcycle feeling) when I see a jet on short final or sling a load successfully onto DZ and think to myself, "f**k yeah..." Unfortunately there will be days where "it's just another job" and then there will be days where you can't believe you're getting paid for what you do. I applaud the introspective nature with which you (or any stud) consider turning in your wings before you've earned them, but don't think it will be all rainbows and unicorns on the other side... Whatever you decide to do with your life remember what Lance Armstrong said (with edits) You know, once I was thinking about quitting when I was diagnosed with brain, lung and testicular cancer, all at the same time. But with the love and support of my friends and family (and a shitload of roids), I got back on the bike and I won the Tour de France five (seven) times in a row (all redacted). But I'm sure you have a good reason to quit. So what are you dying from that's keeping you from the finals? Then reference my signature below...

What a f**king shame. Poor kid lost his entire family because some asshat figured it was cool to drive after having a few... One thing the Air Force has taught me, and I'll give credit where credit is due, drinking and driving isn't worth it. Prayers are with him, and those down in Del Rio.- SOS/ACSC information
I heard it the first time at ASBC(approx 1 week after going active) so I started it while I was on casual for 7 months, then put it on hold to hack the mish. I'm done now but I'm glad I got *most of* it knocked out when I did as opposed to playing golf (not that golf is a bad thing)...- Cyber-nerds doin work...

From the previously posted article: "Tops in Blue has had only one serious interruption in its touring schedule since 1972: a short delay in the start of the 1990 tour because of Operation Desert Shield/Storm" *sigjh* at least there's always the option of a RIF to keep funding this crap.
