    Platoon Types?

    At St.Jean I was hearing the terms, Hollywood, Hell, Heaven platoon and so on tossed around some by people.  I never did get to find out what the difference is or is there a difference between types or is it just pet names?  Curious if anyone can elaborate on the meaning? Thanks

    Voluntary Release update

    Does that apply to everyone or just the people who want to go home?  What about say someone who doesn't wish to release but is medically recommended to for various reasons? For example.  One guy had a heart attack I know of, then it was discovered he had a heart Murmur... Nothing you can do.  He...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Instead of arguing statistics based on opinion articles.  Why not cough up a article or two so we have real debate going to see if any of the 33,690 are valid.  Also Al Gore worked for a President.  Clinton I believe it was.  Ironically he has made millions off of in my eyes instilling fear in a...

    Alright let me rephrase.  All towns over X amount of population.  Smaller towns try a church.  Good luck.

    Did anybody apply through the Canadian Forces Virtual Recruiting Centre

    When I filled out my paperwork earlier this year, I got the forms and took a couple of days to fill out it.  Not that I needed that much time.  It did allow me to ensure I was punctual, descriptive and relevant with my information.  Think about what do you enjoy doing for activities.  Then write...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Greed and gambling with our future.  Where did I hear that before?  Everything is energy.  It's just how you use and convert it.  I'm all for cleaner and better methods of utilizing energy sources so we can live our lives and be productive.  I have to ask.  Show me a better way?  And I'll go...

    The ice was never lost as far as I know.  It cycles but I'm not a pro.  You see down years and you see up years.  Of course our CO count will be higher than other countries as we are a developed nation.  All robust manufacturing countries have higher CO emissions.  It can't be helped.  It...

    Recruits of the last half decade: Fatter, dumber and less motivated than before.

    Yes if you are a apprentice and getting a ticket you are good to go in the trades or work for a union you are good.  There are many sites that avoid union workers.  If that's the case you get nothing.  As in the Condo market with the big towers going up.  The electrical, mechanical and plumbing...

    Chemicals are obvious.  Putting burnt fuel into the air is obvious.  The less we do it equal better.  The guys beating the global warming drum come up with all kinds of examples but no proofs.  I particularly like the carbon dioxide one.  It's a green house gas!  Well.  I guess I better stop...

    Recruits of the last half decade: Fatter, dumber and less motivated than before.

    I worked in civilian trades, the luscious amounts of money you earn is fleeting at best.  Unless you work for a Union local and are registered apprentice trying to achieve a Red Seal license you won't make much.  I took a temporary 2 month job, worked on a Union Condo tower site to tie me over...

    You could meet and shake hands with 1000 drug dealers all smiling and claiming to be your friend.  Still doesn't make it so.  I am a denier of global warming.  In the worlds of late George Carlin.  "The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate...

    While this reply be taken as opinion only and NOT factual.  It is not hard to see.  I now in my 30's when I was a kid my area had hmm one Mcdonalds, one KFC.  No Tim Hortons, no internet. no cell phones.  Coffee? you had to go in sit in a restaurant and order it.  No drive through. Growing up...

    Decision

    Can you be a little more clear on what it is you are getting at?  A diagnoses for shin splits?  That in it self sounds weird.  Many people get shin splits when they start running after a few months it goes away as the muscles get stronger.  It's usually just weak muscles.  Kind of like that pain...

    NSA Whistle-blower Ed Snowden

    I had a look although I'm not reading all that only the first page.  Since the main point of argument is "Executive Order 12333" to justify your and the author argument.  I thought I would call it up look for the word assassination in it and read the fine print at the bottom.  Here is a quote...

    NSA Whistle-blower Ed Snowden

    I am feeling the need to say this again.  Am I that naive that I grew up expecting the state to collect information.  The problem is not power, the problem is not information.  The problem is *if* that power and information is being abused.  If there is no abuse don't worry about it.  If there...
