It certainly ain't the bow tie I'm envious of. Damn.

"My family was Catholic. More specifically, my mother was Catholic. My father, on the other hand, was an emotionally abusive alcoholic."

-So..what you're saying here is that your father was also a catholic, yes?

(sorry, couldn't help myself)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Alas, I am also unable to tie a bow tie... This is a photo of me from a friend's wedding. The women were given paper bow ties on sticks to hold up for the picture, the guys got kissy lips... I think I got the better end of that deal.

I have a certain distaste for the emoticons, and particularly despise the laughing/rolling dude when used in response to one's own statement, but.....

Holy fuck that was funny! "Nearly naked, body all ripped,....". Oh, fuck me. I'm still laughing but can no longer piss myself since I've emptied the tank.
