Not even close. I'm only 19,

What are you trying to say about her?

They are selling AR-15's and AK's by the train load here. And you can always get your Winchester on. Or off. I have an old Dan Wesson .357 which was a great weapon in its day but the action is worn out on mine. I have to take it apart a lot. Very accurate for a revolver though. Shoots thru rocks. I had a friend once when I was in Idaho who had a $2500 H&K full auto (modified) assault rifle and that was pretty impressive back then. Burned thru boxes of shells too quickly though.

Been watching the Tremors quadrilogy DVD so I got Burt vs. Graboids on the brains. Oh and ass blasters.

How dare you question my measure as a gentleman!

It merely seemed like she thought I was older than I actually was, either being in the military or on a police force.

Slapsticks at dawn! I'll teach you something lad don't worry about it.

What makes you ineligible for the military, Wing?

You have to be 21 in the US I think.

WHAT?
FOR REAL?

Around here, 17 you can join the reserves with parental consent. I don't think you can be deployed until you're 19 though... Could be wrong.

21 eh? Huh. Well 21 is a far more suitable age to fight and die for your country then 19 on the one hand, but from a strictly military point of view, you're at your prime at 19, plus you still think you're invincible usually. Subject to vary from person to person of course.

you can join the reserves at 16 I think here.

Can't be sent anywhere untill you're 18 though. I think W-Z can sign up but he wouldn't be sent anywhere untill he's 21. I think that is, it's not mu country though.

No, 18. That's why we have so many recruiters that go to high schools.

Regardless, I have a condition called Ectodermal Dysplasia, and one of the add-ons to it is that I was born without sweat glands. So, you know, me and any temperature above 80 degrees don't agree too well.

I also broke my ankle about 4 months ago, and I never went to the doctor to get it fixed properly. They don't want you if you've had any history of broken bones, especially in your legs or feet.

Well that sucks....

Another thing for me to remember to not take for granted: sweat glands.
