It stands to reason that your interview would be one of the longest, you old salt. Fascinating read -- I had a lot of fun. I'm a little puzzled, though. Didn't I nominate you to be the next interviewee several months ago? |

David,
Awesome that you like Korean food. Have you been to Korea? I took my family there last august. The food there was amazing... NOTHING in the US tasted anything like it. I got completely spoiled there by their food.
I don't enjoy the eating out here as much anymore... Could have been the ingredients... |

I don't enjoy the eating out here as much anymore... Could have been the ingredients... Little River turnpike corridor in Annandale, Va. Korean restaurants up the ying-yang. Never ate in a bad one. Lee Highway corridor in Falls Church, Va. Korean Supermarkets - and not little ones- as full sized as regular supermarkets. (D.C. suburbs) Wife number two was Korean. Fortunately she dumped me, or I'd probably weigh a quarter-ton by now. In addition to knowing all the restaurants and markets, she could really cook that stuff. |

I might be in the minority here.. but I wish Fostersan would open up and express his thoughts once in a while. Freaking introverted jarhead. |

I once ran in a white t-shirt, utilities, and boots through a modern major city in a shaky ally country. Traffic was stopped as we went. We ran in perfect cadence, and the sound was deafening- even our boots hitting the ground thundered... not to mention we have some cool cadence... It was the entire Marine element of the 6th fleet, in one place, at one time. It was the precision that made every boot strike, clap, and return of cadence so memorable. It resonated. it really did thunder in sound. Think for a moment of approximately 3000 men in absolutely perfect unison on an urban street. That is not a college band, that is the United States sending a not- so- subtle message to the populace. To you, it's not much to note. To me, I cannot think of anyone but a U.S. Marine Infantryman that could live that experience. Maybe a Soviet sailor that watched us go by could tell you what he thought in that port city, as he was there. Such was the cold war. There. I thought about that. Something you would never hear of otherwise. Extroverted, lol  Edited by member Sunday, November 18, 2012 8:52:35 PM(UTC)

Better still to me a part of the group as they all watched you go by. |
