I prefer Lhasa Apsos.
NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

I would say technically correct but effectively the same if you're not selected.  (What would BUPERS say? ):cheersmate:



BUPERS would say, "Try again next year."  There were no PNA points for E-7 and above.  All selection boards.
