    Another Fun Question!

    Ok, as some of you may know, and some may not know. I am currently serving active duty in the United States Army. This morning, orders came down to me deploying me on a TDY status mission to camp shelby, Mississippi. My dates are from May 10- Sept. 30. After the mission is complete I will then be sent to JRTC for one month. So this means i will not be around until early november. I am very surprised that this happened as are some of my supervisors. but, being in the army, i just have to deal with it. So, i will be around here until about the 4th or 5th of may and after that, its farewell for a while. So I thought i would drop a line to let you know what is going on. And to say thank you for everyone for all the help when needed. It was very much appreciated. So for now, take care....

    how is this possable?

    Thoughts & prayers man. If you read my article on Pat Tillman, I absolutely love & appreciate you members of the military. I know that we owe all that we enjoy to you. May God watch over you always.
    Life is like a game of poker. You can play each hand to the best of your ability but you are still going to run into a bad beat from time to time. What matters is how you handle it. Do you go on tilt or can you maintain your composure & rebuild your stack?

    lol, i have no idea what TDY is to be honest with you. Its like Temporary Duty something or other instead of PCS (permanent Change of Station). JRTC is The Joint Readiness Training Center. Its a very close to being real mission to train you for the real thing.

    Oh wow, Justin....that really stinks! That's a long TDY! Will your wife be able to go with you?? Didn't she just get back from Iraq a little while ago? That is definitely one of the major downsides to being a part of the military. I hope the two of you can stay together, or if not, then you'll get lots of chances to visit!

    You won't have access to a computer while in Miss? Maybe you can find a good deal on a laptop that you can take TDY with you? Regardless though, just like Eddie, my thoughts and prayers are with ya, man. You'll be missed around here!

    Hey, Justin, I hope you get net access while you're gone. Will your wife and buddies be able to make sure your snakes are taken care of while you're gone? I hope so! Also, I hope you stay stateside, but if you end up in the hot spot keep an eye out for my brother. Ask your wife to post occasional updates on you and the snakes for us, ok?

    Hey Justin, good luck on your journey. You will be missed around here, but you can come back and tell us all about it, or keep it to yourself, whichever you prefer.

    Take care man,
    Jennifer

    Oh by the way, you have a PM.
