chaoskitty 0 #4 September 24, 2004 Shut up Jake, nobody is disappinted in you. However, it wouldnt be a bad idea to start working with crippled children and reading to blind people.

sunshine 2 #10 September 24, 2004 Don't get down on yourself. It's awesome that you tried out. They prolly won't let you in cause you're too hot and they don't want all the girls giving you all the attention. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

happythoughts 0 #13 September 24, 2004 The first step in growth is self-acceptance. You may be a loser, but that is ok. Try an alternative path. They have womens slots on the team. Wear a dress for the next tryout (unless you are uncomfortable with costumes ). If they discover that you are not a women, they can't ask about the dress - it's a policy now.

You sure you're talking about the right guy? I got an idea. Convince the army they need a wingsuit demo group. You can be the instructor/captain and use that BMI rating. Like you said, always next year. Good luck!!!Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.
