Okay, here is some of the only advice I am going to give you. Don't ever again in your life say that you will give 110%. Out of what, 200%, then you are shorting yourself 90%. It is just a retarded thing to say. If you give 110% then you gave more than you were capable of, which means you were'nt really giving 110%. You only have 100% to give.Prune Stew wrote:Ranger Bugsy,Bugsy wrote:Do you have a chip on your shoulder?
Ive never responded to doubt well. Chip on my shoulder? My old man didnt make it through SFAS and gives me a hard time telling me I cant. But I will back my shit up 110%. I dont quit for anyone.
And it's not gee, its gi.
Listen to Ranger Jim about the PT test thing. We like to see what we are working with.

ART of WAR
Just a tip Pruneman; no one here is easily impressed.
Read the rest of that book you quoted from "The Art of War" second, I would check out Miyamoto Musashi's "Book of Five Rings" This would be a good time to "Hug the Belt grasshopper"
The wrestling is good; it will help you.
Good Luck

Re: ART of WAR
That right there is a very interesting read. Crash handed it to me in 04 and I've read it every year since - every time I learn a little more about what he is really talking about.FIST TEAM LTR wrote:I would check out Miyamoto Musashi's "Book of Five Rings"
Welcome to the Site, kid. You've got a long ways to go.

Maybe your 'old man' knows something about his son, you disrespectful little shit. Unlike now, a rank of Specialist and a certain amount of time served was required before even getting to SFAS. Your father served his country, and you will respect that here.Prune Stew wrote:My old man didnt make it through SFAS and gives me a hard time telling me I cant.

This is very true. It starts at home.
