as a former recce platoon driver i dont know if youre interested but youd be a shoe-in for some good contract gigs overseas. if you are interested let me know. experienced "combat" driver types are in high demand.

Good point Pongo, we all know you cant oppose the Iraq war without first joining the Iraqi insuregent forces... Will you team up with the Sunnis in Fallujah or Sadr's boys in Najaf?

OK, just explain what you meant.. :)

I was kidding with the tempting GH. Im nearly 40 years old been driving mini vans for 14 years and make enought money that they can't tempt me that way.

Only way I would pick up an M16 again is if you try to get into canada again.

You wouldn't pick up an M16.  You COULD, but you wouldn't.

if you ever considering it let me know. work not only in iraq and even if you against coalition attack on iraq you wouldnt be assisting that its already been done and its over. psds need good drivers and there you are keeping noncombatants from getting attacked by terrorist insurgent whatever. i know plenty of aussie brit and canuck who are doing that type of work right now if you ever need a point of contact with one let me know. you may be a bleeding liberal but they dont grow wussies in the ppli. :)

well I take it back. would love to spend an afternoon on the range again.

GH and funky and others would hunt me down and kill me anonymous, and justifiebly so. Maybe if I get canned from my great paying job for too much BBS posting. Now my fights are with ASP.net and C#.net.

Or..for those of you who have read "Last of the Dog Team" maybe if I got terminal cancer and had a year to live.

I'd gladly join the army to battle Canadian terrorists...  You guys got any oil up there?

You would do better against Al quida. Hell you couldnt even take on the french canadians.
