I've lost 15 lbs in a month and a half. I swim early in the morning Mon-Friday and lift/cardio at night. Also I stopped drinking soda. Been hitting up PeteRock for some lifting tips so I don't get complacent.

I jump out of airplanes, scuba qualified (but not since 2005), lizards/snakes are cool, I eat my veggies, and I rocket jump for fun. Why the hell do spiders freak me out so much? Even if its a damn spider in a movie or video game it still creeps me out. My first time I trained as a scout in 1995 I failed because I couldn't keep it together as 2 or 3 spiders were crawling on my face, hand, and neck. I was almost demoted during a deployment because I shot at a camel spider. If I see one of those fuckers crawling around the house I either go to my happy place and ignore it or I have to call my wife to kill it. Embarrassing and irrational.

I stay at home and pout all day
me too, just not with as much income I back in the saddle....kinda. Felt depressed since I retired so I got up off my ass a few weeks ago. From 0500-0700 teach Marines and soldiers who fail at CWSQ. Part of the wounded warrior program, driving them to their specialty appointments off post. And my favorite part of my day is preparing high school kids (those who have already signed up for the delayed entry program) for boot camp. That's pretty awesome of you. If I can ask, feel free to ignore, how can you afford not to work, save a ton of money? Good disability? All my deployments since 1994 went straight to the bank or paid off debts. Also medically retired with close to 19 years active duty means benefits for life for myself and family. It also doesn't hurt that my wife has a decent paying job here in Georgia, combined with the low cost of living means I can live comfortably and not work unless I want to. Just bought a house and just 1 monthly retirement check covers the mortgage/utilities for two months.

I don't have to. For some reason these kids I have right now can't stand still, unable to do 1 pull up, and can't run 50 feet before bitching. Poor bastards have until June before the Drill instructors take over

The pilot had the wife and I riveted throughout the whole episode. The show seemed to be able to hook us immediately and remained interesting/disturbing at all times. I have high hopes for Hannibal.

I'm downloading it now. I also got Star Conflict. I guess I need to start reaching out more for evening gaming opportunities.
Hey Hardron, we usually have a group of us on daily playing either Star Conflict or Warframe. Jump on our GT vent if you need any help

Had a straight 4-5 hour session of co-op madness with Jarrodhk. This game has more depth and variety than I thought. Some missions (infestation) had an "Aliens" vibe, very tense. I'm very impressed  Between Warframe and Star Conflict, I don't think I can afford any more free to play games

Yeah I've had to abandon a few games due to seemingly bad luck with my neighbors. I'm doing much better this time around even while being outnumbered (population and colony worlds) due to my superior ship tech.
