I brought a PS2 which I played with a fair bit. Disgaea is a good time-waster, and if you can can manage it DDR is fun too. There was a gym on post so it was convenient to just go and work out for a few hours if you got too bored. Bring or buy an mp3 player. I also did some fursuit construction, but I don't recommend that since it's really hard to find the necessary materials. General arting would be a better idea. There was a place on post where you could get free lumber and hardware, so there were a lot of gazebos everywhere. The armor crosses were all hand made too.

Hey guys, havnt posted in forever so i figured i'd drop a line.

Was just wondering what you guys do for fun while deployed. I didnt bring much besides my laptop but I finnally broke down and bought Maya (computer animation software) that i have been watching since i guess mid 2002. Im in afghanistan, though i wont say more on unsecure interweb, and it should be here in about 10-16 days. I cant wait to start learning it as thats what i plan on doing when i get out after this deployment.

But feel free to share what you do for fun in the sand box. Might give me some ideas to mix it up a bit and keep me from going stir crazy

thanks   

heh, i know i havn't had time for much of anything. PCSed to Hawaii and its been 05:00 in the morning to 19:00 every day for months. 23:00 on many days with almost no days off. That tends to happen though when you have 3 months to prepare a unit that has never deployed before. A unit normally has 2-3 times longer to get ready. But yeah leaving very soon. At least i get to save up some $$ for when i return. This will set me up for a very fruitful and smooth transition when i ETS.

I know myself and Pony still visit here, but what happened to everyone else? Do we need to recruit new members just to get some activity around here?

The non military chatter thread IS for general discussion

your FACE is asleep burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn

PONY IT'S GONNA BE CRAZYPARTY TIME!

I AM GOING.

What are your thoughts on the issue?

Personally I think government health care is a good idea, but with all the debt our country has right now I think we should get better financially before we go spending so much money on health care.

Well I have my room now so I'm definitely planning on going
