I dont care if you write me a letter
I dont care what you say to me no more
All I got is trash left at my door
What you have dont worry me, worry me now more
- Calvin Baty, Craving Theo
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

You take that seriously?
Have you seen that guy's bio?

I'm a 33-year-old freelance illustrator/animator/web developer residing in the beautiful town of Montclair, New Jersey with two cats, and a roomie. Although I have no formal education in political affairs, I have been studying history, politics, and sociology for the past 16 years. While it's not much, it's more experience than Rush Limbaugh, Michael "Savage" Wiener, and Sean Hannity had, combined, before they began spewing their filth into the vox populi.

How can ANYONE take this guy seriously?
No formal education in political affairs? Doesn't surprise me. This guy's about as arrogant and ignorant as Maddox :rolleyes:. You should really pay attention to people who actually KNOW what they are talking about.

A lot of people are likely to condem this little movie and call it a lier because the maker was to bias and emotional, and focused too much on serton issues that could feedback on you Ranger.
Even if the payments are cut, your still reasponcable for your way of life any ways, and it would be stupid to count on payments from the goverment to let you live your life. People are more likely to call you a lasy freeloaded living off of welfair checks and tell you to get a job.
I is nice that you serve, and it sucks that your payments got chopped, but you really can't expect to depend on those any ways. You got to go out and get a job, and an edjucation to get a good one worth having, other wise people who complain about the cuts are BSing even if the statement is true.
Your going to want a few good cards in your hand, and the first card you will want to support you into getting a good job is a highschool deploma, then next is either some sort of college degree or military service record w/o a dishonerable discharge. That should get your foot in the door for at least a job that pays 3$ more then minimuim. If it doesn't, well hell your a person with tilent of some sort, if you know what that is, prosue a field of study that intrest you, and if you don't know, look to your past and what you have been great at, other then sex and beer consumtion, and then base your choosen career on that, because hell, it is better to do something you like and get paid for it rather then do something you hate that pays a butt load.
Sure it will take a little bit of time and money, maybe even have to get finacil aid support, but it is better then a lasyboy chair and goverment checks.
Even if there where no cuts in the payments you still could not get the car you want, the TV you desirve, and the big house you would like to live in on those payments. I say screw trying to live a mediocer life on goverment checks from militry service, I want more money, and I can get more if I use the service as a refrance on my next job application, SO FUCK SITTING ARROUND, I WANT A REAL PAY CHECK!

You're one to talk about getting an education, take a good look at your spelling and grammar.
And what exactly did you mean by this.

People in the armed forces make a decent salary. Many of them do not serve for the money but for the honour and pride of fighting for their country.

This shows you have no clue what you are talking about, servicemen (and women) even as a low rank enlisted make more than $3 above minimum.

Correct me if I am wrong but it looks like you are saying being in the military is not a real job.

your over reacting, I was replying to rangers post.
As far as education goes, I do have a good education even if my speeling is bad. Dislexia just forces me to work a little harder to wright, thats all, so STFU aobut my grammer and spelling, you don't have a clue how much more effort I have to put in to it.
The movie and Rangers comments are the one's that talked about payment cuts, so ask them about it. I'm mostly talking about the lasy bums who would use the cuts as an excuss to not having enough money to live their lives because they do sit around doing nothing.
And I already know that people don't serve for the money, ask any one in any govermental posiion and most will tell you that you don't do govermental work for the money, all of your public school teachers a lot of time will tell you that and any govermental agent office employee, so that goes without saying, but even then there are extra binifits that some use as an excuss to go in such as the military paying off student loands and other debts. Even though a lot of people do join for the honor and the pay is decent, there are those who have other reasons based on money issues that they join for.
And putting the fact that you have served looks good on a job application, so I do have more of a clue, and already stated something about that before. You didn't quote that part about giving refrance to it, so you need to be reminded of something you ignored.
And as far as being a real job, your putting words in my mouth when you make this statement.

I guess I may have overreacted a liitle but I have no tolerance for people who insult military service.
The problem I have with your posts is that you make it sound like military service is a stepping stone to better jobs, not a valid career in itself.
As for my insulting your spelling I'll apologize for that as I was not aware you had dislexia. The reason I made fun of that is because many people who post here are just too lazy to type properly.
