PhillyKev 0 #6 November 22, 2004 Dude...it's a long standing and well known joke. Kallend may not be very funny, but he's not narrow minded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kallend 2,105 #7 November 22, 2004 QuoteDude...it's a long standing and well known joke. Kallend may not be very funny, but he's not narrow minded. Hey, I resemble that remark! Actually the graduate from our school with the lowest ever GPA went into military intelligence. He was NROTC, graduated with 2.000GPA exactly. (The smartest NROTC students go into nuclear power, the next smartest into aviation....)... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

wmw999 2,517 #8 November 22, 2004 QuoteActually the graduate from our school with the lowest ever GPA went into military intelligence My brother is a mech E from University of Texas; he said that the two lowest GPA guys (and deservedly so, too, in his opinion) went to work for the amusement park industry, designing roller coasters. He's not real big on roller coasters since that time Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdhill 0 #9 November 22, 2004 Quoteit's a long standing and well known joke I'm well aware of the joke, the old, tired, and rather uneducated joke ... it's also pretty well known that its taken as a joke coming from someone on the inside, but as a slight from those on the outside... kinda like the "n" word... Our Military Intellignece organizations, while by no means perfect, are some of the best in the world... Our professional military leadership are some of the most effective "critical thinkers" in our government, While those skills may not extend to the civilian leadership, to slight those who have dedicated a lifetime to the protection of our way of life is narrow minded. It seems to be a sport for some around here. J JAll that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. - Edmund Burke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyKev 0 #10 November 22, 2004 Fine....I will now find offense with every joke in existence since every joke that has ever been told could be construed to offend someone somewhere. Sheesh.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
