Jude you better not have given up on this! It looks too damn awesome to die out.
I'm a WoW addict again. Give me some time to get over it.

Though it probably took the least amount of effort on your part, Ocean, the message box is my favorite part.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?
I'm having trouble picking Golden Sun 3 back up. The characters talk too much about shit I don't care about. Give me a skip button.
I'm enlisting for the U.S. Navy.

I was referring more to the officer side of the equation, but I dunno, I've heard some interesting stories from some military folk. I guess your mileage may vary?
Your mileage will be the worst of all. The class separation in the Navy is the most distinct by far.
Even then it will still be dependent on your job... If you're just some guy who loads an F/A-18 up with GBU-38s, it doesn't matter what you think--you're just a worker bee and finding a way to load ordnance five seconds faster isn't going to change the way we fight wars.

author=Feldschlacht IVauthor=NightbladeLike geodude said, this sounds about right. One of the first things I learned in my DEP classes is that the last thing the military wants or needs is some ass kissing follower yes man and to not be any of those if you want to see a promotion ever.
The army called me once, I told them I have problems with authority, the recruiter replied "They make our best leaders". I am not exaggerating.
Don't kid yourself. There isn't much room for thinkers in the enlisted military. They'll train you to push buttons according to a checklist. You'll have to find an O to corrupt with your ideas if you want to make anything interesting happen.
Show and tell us your city/town/village/hamlet/whereever you live!
Well, I live in Denver, Colorado right now and it's pretty awesome. It's got a "little big city" vibe, offering all of the attractions of most major cities but less crowded and with a sense of community.
Anyway, we've got an NHL (hockey) team called the Avalanche, an NBA (basketball) team called the Nuggets, an NFL (American football) team called the Broncos, an MLB (baseball) team called the Rockies, and even a fucking lacrosse team (which is cost-effective entertainment, for sure).
If sports aren't up your alley, Denver has more art galleries per capita than any other city in the USA, the second most theater productions after New York City, and innumerable venues for music concerts.
If the arts aren't your thing, Denver is backdropped by the Rocky Mountains which offer some of the best skiing and snowboarding during the winter time, and fantastic camping/hiking adventures for the summer. Denver citizens have such an active lifestyle that Colorado has the lowest obesity rate in the USA... The number of good-looking, slim people is noticeable whenever you go to a shopping mall or wherever.
A lot of people have this misconception that Denver is a snowy place, but while we get a bit of snow here and there (especially October or March), Denver advertises and backs up 300+ days of sunshine a year. While it's not sunny San Diego, it's almost always nice outside. The last two weeks it's been in the mid-60s (though we just got nailed by a cold front last night... brrrr....).
Anyway, I don't know what else to write, nor do I feel like revising any of this post so it's easier to read so I'm just going to leave you with a picture and press "Submit."

Whatchu Workin' On? Tell us!
Dude, I don't even know what I'm working on. I was working on chapter 3 of Necropolis, but I've decided I don't like the game very much (except for the battles and general outline for the story). I'm seriously considering a fresh start once I get a better sense of direction on how I should assemble these dungeons and how to interlace the cut-scenes appropriately.

I'll just use a screenshot from my game page since that's easy. Just a battle. 16-bitify it or something.
