    Sifting through my change tray today at work for enough coins to get me a snack out of the vending machine, found a 1936 Buffalo Nickel. Its not worth anything, but is still just cool to have...its freaking 74 years old.

      What exactly is VMI. I see they have majors and minors but is it for the military or what?

        On Saturday I got to Athens, GA at around 11AM for the 7:45PM game. Tailgated all day and went to the dog (dawg) walk and lost my voice during the game. Great times

              TROUBLESHOOTING
              These 7 steps should get your router and gaming back on track!
              1. Make sure your router's SSID is set to broadcast.
              2. Turn off WLAN power save on your psp.
              3.Tturn off any MAC address filter (check manual on how to do this).
              4. Make sure your wireless router has the latest firmware.
              5. Set your router to broadcast either B only or both B & G (again, manual).
              6. Turn off WEP (to troubleshoot only - you can always turn it back on).
              7. Change the authentication type to "open system"
              8. Unplug your router for about 1 minute, then replug it and scan again.
              9. Get in a closer distance to your router
              10. Contact SCEA or Sony at: 1-800-345-SONY (1-800-345-7669)
              11. Actually read and do every step before asking for additional help.

                Nah, it's not military at all. Ignore the military in the name. It is actually a big party school, campus life is great.

                  I forgot her name.

                  :/
                  She didn't have a phone? I thought parents were letting 8 year olds have cell phones these days. You got lucky you didn't FB her though, don't want to talk to Chris Hansen on the other end.

                    It's expensive if you live out of state though.

                    How much free time do you get in military?

                        As in real military ? Like enlisting type of military ?

                        Depends if you deployed over seas or not. But being deployed state side, it is just like a regular 9 to 5 job with the weekends off. However that kind of depends on your MOS as well.

                          When your in the real military you get a good amount of free time when not deployed. At VMI or any other training academy, you probably get very slim free time, especially as a freshman or a "rat" at VMI.

                              Well, you would need to contact a recruiter first. Then....

                              Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork

                              Go to MEPS and they give you a physical, make you walk like a duck, and you pick your rate or MOS. Basically a job you will do in the military.

                              Then you go to Boot Camp.

                              Then Technical School and any other schools they want to send you.

                              Then you go to your duty station or home if you join the reserves.

                              What branch you interested in?
