Buy a $500 house in Detroit. Check.

Sink $200,000 into it for repairs. Check.

Be taxed out of existence by the greedy politicians that are controlled by the teacher’s and public service unions. Check.

What could possibly go wrong?

That would have been roughly the time I was in ROTC, but it was only for one semester. I was way too busy partying and playing in bands around town to be serious about something like my future. You remember how BG was...keg parties every Thursday night, from Chestnut to Kentucky St, and 14th down to 10th St. It was a fun place to be back then, though I didn't accomplish much.

Okay...I see my previous reply was pulled. So let me rephrase it. No, I don't have a problem. Mr. Guilty Conscience is the one who will have the problem when what will likely happen happens.

There...politically correct enough for you?

That’s a remarkably timid comment from someone who finishes his comments with, “Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!”

Well, some sensitive soul on the thread must've gotten upset by my previous reply, and it got yanked. Therefore I must temper what I say so as not to offend whichever linguini-spined wimp out there was offended by the truth as I see it. Trust me...it wasn't "timid".
