    some goodies for me

    ^^ thanks, and a ls/v can be very fun, but they also can be very temperamental. make sure all you're parts are of quality and pay attention to the details, i slacked a few times with little crap and it bit me in the ass. GL with what ever you decide to do.

    What are you doing / did you do today / CHAT THREAD

    i did 4 in the CG and it was absolutely awesome. but its you're decision so be sure what you wanna do. army wouldn't be my first choice. not service bashing, just my opinion. i have plenty of army friends that say they wish they had gone to a different branch, like the CG. good luck playa!
