Hey, philman!!
Good to see you, pardner!
Ten-four on the "square needle" thing!!
I remember in boot we walked down a row with several tables on each side, and a Corpsman sat behind each one with the longest, dullest needles that could be manufactured.
As we walked they jabbed those needles into our arms without us ever having to stop!
I never looked, but I know those needles went through each arm and came out the other!
Then those D.I.'s from hell made us do fifty push-ups so our arms wouldn't get sore!
HA!
That's like telling a man who gets run over by a train to jog a mile to keep from getting stiff!

I can top THAT one!

When I was in training, they took *special pains* to test the women's ability to withstand
The Jabs, enjoying the two-arm attacks with gusto.

I took it without flinching and smiled at 'em..:)))
