Did being in the Air Force change how you talk at all?

Well...I already don't talk like a Vermontah...my parents are both from the Midwest and being a homeschooler, I really didn't pick up an accent or even most of the words people around here use.

Being in the military...well, I don't think I really changed my way of speaking any. Just picked up a love of some southern food. (There we go, back to food again...my hobbity tendencies coming out, I guess!)

At Thanksgiving, being overseas, generally one of the people in the shop would host the meal and provide the turkey (living in the dorms, I got out of this...all I had to do was bring soda / pop and some other easy stuff). There used to be some pretty heated discussions about stuffing - some people think if it ain't cornmeal, it ain't stuffing! It was always interesting seeing what were the traditional components of a Thanksgiving dinner in the various parts of the country.

Over in Germany one of the members of my platoon married a local girl. They had my roommate and I over for Christmas dinner one year.

We had wild duck and roast boar. It was very good. I don't think I ever would have tried things like that otherwise.

Then there was the time in Paris where we had escargot......

Stuffing? We always go the oyster dressing route.

Oohh I am immortalized TWICE in the key words. ;^)

BTW, that blue guy has some sort of growth on the right side of his head. He'd better get to the doctor.

I want a remote control for life sometimes...rewind some parts, fast-forward others. Work is a definite fast-forward!

Sounds like I better get my butt to Target pretty soon if I want to pick up one of those chess sets for the kids for Christmas.
