Really?????
I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.Comment

Hey, you know there was a time when I was just a schmuck like all the rest of you, right?

I'm currently serving in the US Navy aboard a Ballistic Missile Submarine. Got a lot of credits towards a Electronics Engineering Degree, but only a passing interest in history.Comment

Well the pay and food sound great but My wife is not too happy about the beautiful virtueous young lady to marry partOriginally posted by Lancer
You should come to the Philippines and help me with my beach property. I pay $5 a day for a mason or carpenter plus all the fish soup and rice you can eat at lunch and snacks at 10AM and 3PM.
Also, my wife will find you a wonderful, beautiful, virtueous young lady to marry.
Kind of a package deal.
I went into the US army (Germany) when I was 17, then when I got out learned carpentry, house framing and roofing. Getting old for that now and I've found a paint brush to be not so painful.

Thank you all for contributing. I figured that more leaned towards the computer side than history. I sometimes make huge game blunders because I fail to disconnect the history portion of my brain...I tend to want to build civilizations rather than aquire them....strange coming from a military historian...maybe...on a side note...I do believe that I would rather be on Lancers' tropical beach than staring out my window where the Great-General TJ Jackson fell.
