HookemHorns, thanks! There was a time when I was ready to give it up about half way through. Had a job offer and everything. But, over the long run, I think I made the right choice.

Arkansas? My dad was born in Little Rock, and grandparents are from small towns there. I haven't been to Arkansas since I was about 3 or 4. But, I got a bunch of family there.

Congrats Gunny, the Marines make a good and honorable man, you can trust his word. If it makes you feel any better I'm 40 and on my 3rd career.
