Good luck.

Like 80% of the Finnish male population, I've been in the military. But there's not much the organizations have in common, our training methods and goals are completely different (the push-up aren't though ).

Anyway, it's going to be an adventure you'll never forget.

Marine Corps cool I spent some time doing that and I really enjoyed my time in the Core. Get San Diego for basic if you can. Marine Core is the toughest of the military branches. Square away that footlocker, suck in that gut, to slow get back and your going to keeping doing it till I get tired. LOL Good luck and have fun. Simper fi

I can understand your parents not wanting to make their friends pay, but I can't understand their friends not offering to cough up the dough. I agree that they can't watch their kids every second but the fact is their kid broke someone else's property. The ONLY decent thing to do is to offer to pay for it. Then again, are you sure they didn't offer to pay for it and your parents told them they didn't have to.

As far as kids go, for the most part I like them. Undisciplined kids really irritate me but when you are dealing with little kids 5 or 6 years old or younger you have to realize that they are going to try to do anything they can get away with. If they are running around, acting like brats, being obnoxious etc. It's because there parents never taught them how to behave. I don't blame the kids.

I had a woman come into my store about a year ago with her little hellion. She spent her entire time in the store talking on her damn cell phone and completely ignored her kid (he was about 4 years old) I told him several times not to go in the back room, not to pound on the glass (not tap mind you but literally pounding on the glass) not to run in the store and to please stop screaming at the top of his lungs every time he went past the tarantula section.

After about 10 minutes she came up to the counter and put down a $2.50 can of fish food. She looked at me and said "you don't like kids much do you" I looked her straight in the eye and said "it's not the KIDS I have a problem with" She got this all offended look on her face, grabbed little Damian's (or maybe it was Lucifer's) arm and walked out. It was the best $2.50 sale I never made.
