Yeah WE tend to take it out on the employees and NO, it's not their fault. I try VERY hard to not do that because I know how it feels to "deal with the public" when they are frustrated. But I sometimes fail and when I can remember to do it, I apologize to them.

I enjoyed meeting the Gunny at that show. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I first spoke to him when I was admiring some knives at a table, and heard his distinctive voice right next to me. I didn't want to draw attention while he was enjoying the show, so I waited until he was ready to sign autographs and take pictures. If it wasn't for the crowd we could have talked all day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

For us, the "Holiday season", that time from Thanksgiving through New Years is usually when we see a bit more domestic disputes than the same length of time during the rest of the year. The holidays ARE a stressful time.

I have heard before that he is actually a personaable person. You've seen his shrink commercial haven't you where he was bald?

Oh yes, the "Drill Instructor" look! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Well he said happened was that his regular barber wasn't there and they passed him off to some woman, and he said "I had misgivings, but let her take a whack at my flat-top". He had talked about not many knowing how go give a correct "special Marine Corps flat-top just the way I like it".

Well he didn't like it when he got home and he said he was so pi***d off that he just shaved his head! And like he said, I think that it worked for the commercial

Oh, he also said that they "came up" with the term "Jackwagon". I don't think he could have used the other Jack word in a commercial. Well maybe for SOME LATE LATE night ones. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I sure don't miss the "high and tight" haircuts! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Only time we had to get those was in basic. After that as long as it was off the ears and the collar of your shirt you were ok.

BUT there was a time when I was still a bomb loader and worked the midnight shift for 7 straight months that my hair, when I didn't have it slicked back was down to the bottom of my ears. I got accused of being in the Navy and got it cut SHORT the next day!

Wow, my relief it here! I am gonna brief him and head for the home front. Talk to you later, take care of yourselves.

Air Force hippies! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />................................. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Well, as the dogs have been fed and outside, as well as the cats being fed, I think I'll go back to bed for a while. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
You and Patty have a great but unstressed day today! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Take care! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
