Update on ME
 
Well, since my move to Charleston in January, I have been busy as the dickens. Time has really flown by. My life, as I knew it before in DC, has changed dramatically. Aside from spending alot of my time in training, the rest of my time has been spent texting, calling, and chatting online with my wife and kids. I miss everything about my old life, as it were, especially the time I used to spend on the boards. I guess, all (good) things must come to an end. I will be spending a week with the family next week, then I am off to Washington State to do Survival (SERE: Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape) training. This should be quite an experience for me, and will prepare me to be a flyer if my plane should ever go down behind enemy lines.
Regardless, I will be deploying somewhere in harms way toward the end of the year, so I will keep all in touch with as many people as I can. Hope everyone is doing well in the online cigar community world. :)

Thanks for your service and send our thanks to your family as well. I know it was difficult for my sister and nephews when my brother-in-law was away when he served.

Just can't thank you guys and your families enough. :usa

The terrain must be similar to Afghanistan. Just watch out for the mountain women...

As everyone has said, be safe and good luck, Jimmy. You're a PATRIOT and I :salute: you. It's funny, the things you miss when you're away from family and friends. You know, the things you never even gave much thought to, and now what you'd do to have/do some of those things (even for a few minutes). God Bless, brother!! :usa

take with you to sere school: a good sharp knife. not a gerber from the px, but a good, sharp knife. dryer lint in a plastic baggie. if you set in a tree for 45-50 minutes really still you may be able to catch a bird... to eat.

KILL DA WABBIT KILL DA WABBIT!

GOOD LUCK!

well, just got back yesterday from SERE, and I must say that was the most challenging course I have ever done. Not only was I pushed beyond what I thought I could do, I also learned alot of awesome new skills and tools. I only had one chance to smoke a cigar, which turned out to be a Tat. Due to the dry conditions, she unraveled and really wasn't that pleasant. Other than my toes STILL being numb, and my knees killing me from the 50lb ruck, I am not bad off. Decompressing now with a Padron 64 and a Casa Magna, which are both awesome. I missed me some tobacco!:D

I'll try to catch up on Skype at the end of the week. Do you guys usually do the conference thing? I used to enjoy killing time on Friday nights skyping.
