nitwit, i do hope you follow your bliss and not try to be a looser like the other negatigahs on the rant. you know who they are, b/c you hang out with them. trying to be a looser is a losing proposition.

miles teaches young men to be winners and not to whine a moan like the negatigahs. he is popular on twitter b/c people like him.

you can live in faith or fear.

oh, i have had a fantastic, exciting, adventurous life. i never wanted to live/work in an office.
now, i pursue spiritual paths, forestry, petroleum, cancer, and lsu sports.

yes, all this w/ a general studies degree from lsu.

ha, ha, wow. b/c of vietnam, i stayed in school thru 3 flunks. i flunked french and switched to business.
my first day of business calculus, i opened the book and then i dropped out and volunteered for the draft.
i also volunteered for vietnam, but while at transfer station (3/70) in oakland, nixon nixed draftees to war zone!!!
i missed the last plane for vietnam by 3 days and spent my time in los angeles afees!!

2.5 yrs later i was not gonna try BUSINESS CALC again, so i took general studies.

AND, i got semester work credit: 6 hours (for marching/pe,) 6 hrs for typing/filing,) and 2 hours credit for shooting a weapon.

i really support military service. it was the time that i became my man. :usa:
