I'm a shy person. I also don't want to inconvenience people. When I was in Fairbanks last year, I saw a gazillion service folks. I was too shy to go up and say “Thanks” (but I did thank the hotties in the airport that were sitting next to me!), so I gave ‘em the thumbs up, or mouthed the word “Thanks”...cos I didn't want them to have to go to any more trouble for me. I figured they're doing the fighting, why make them stop and talk?

(heh, thought you said your a$$ was Marine!!!)
Ah, love Friday afternoons!

It’s okay to be shy, blu. I can understand that.

As to my a$$, since it’s part of my gear, it too, it’s all MARINE. :-)

I do keep my gear in a nice tidy and organized military order. Never know when I will have to swing back into action.
