I will have internet its just my Lieutenant puts me on 16 hour shifts... I sometimes hate being really good at my job.

Cel	posted 07-10-2010 04:24 PM     a $2000 bolt, you have no idea how accurate that actually is. Well its a good thing then I only have 3 months or so left then I'm done with this. Been fun and interesting but a change would be nice. And the new GI bill they came out with will really help with college.
