Vision Test

being better snipers and seeing better at night are of benefit is the service. but, at 17 i had little experience firing a gun. only twice had i shot anything other than a BB gun, and still got small arms expert. Anyone who went to lackland, know you only visit the range once, and are firing an unbalanced weapon (.22 cal barrel on an m16 stock, iirc). and 98/100 @100yrds was good enough for a ribbon.

. may have been another reason for the two choices, both put me in a position for long distance fire. one as sniper, the other at enemy aircraft (not close by any means). so who knows. I was not able to pull full term anyway so it is all moot. really

as for the girl at the DMV, she recieved her corrections from her supervisor. It was not a dmv policy, but her own conclusions her comment was based on. the "hassle" for me was having to deal with her lack of tact and education. (she really pissed me off)

I have that trouble with meat also. i learned to not look at the meat, but the juices. if clear, it done. is tinted, it's not. then I always give it a little longer just to be sure. steak tho, I like it mooing when I stick it with a fork. lol

Cooking? We don't need no stinking cooks!

Just eat it raw!

Mix a little Shoyu (Soy Sauce for you Americans) and some WWWWAASSSABBBIIIIII and gimme a cold beer and I am ready for the Super Bowl!!!

Ahi, shrimp, crab, poki, tako, etc, etc. YUM!!!
(if you don't recognize it, don't ask...)

Maybe a raw tourist or two!

j/k

You should have seen the bunch of us a couple of years ago on a trip (business) to Portsmouth, Maine during lobster season. We showed them how to eat seafood. I will never forget the looks on their faces. When they lost their appetites, we ate their dinners too!!!

Yeah, sushi and sashimi are really good! But the seafood has to be very fresh, or it's not going to be very good.

I don't know about the raw beef and other raw meats, though. I'm scared that if you eat those, you might get parasites.

Eating raw beef, pork, poultry, and other non-seafood meats (well... not too sure about insects and the like

) is a really bad idea.

The equivalent of sushi for beef is called "steak tartar". (Sometimes spelled "tartare".)

Nothing wrong with raw beef, but there is a definate quality issue that goes with that. You just don't take a blob of Kroger hamburger and eat it. "tartare" takes a lot of preperation.

Raw or undercooked pork or chicken is very bad.

Never said it wouldn't limit career choices. However, it wouldn't limit it to just TWO choices. I'm blind as a bat and color blind and I had around 60 available jobs to choose from. What would limit job choices would be scoring low on your ASVAB.
