If we can deal then I just may. I happened across it when searching for Dana 60's. If I do it I'll put the higher mileage engine in my truck and sell it pretty cheap but at this point it's only thoughts of possiblities.

And machetes and axes and war hammers

The hardest part about the zombie apocolypse will be pretending that I'm not excited.

when i was out there, i had no problem finding great deals on these trucks. especially the IDI. i grabbed mine, a running IDI for under 2k.

Please add me to your list, or anyone who has already gotten this stuff, feel free to forward it to me. I'm really curious as to what happens next.

I keep seeing this mentioned. Did things change? I enlisted at 17. I just had to have parental consent. I even shipped out to boot camp at 17.

If it's in the Marines, then getting kicked out or a medical discharge is going to be the only way. To be back home in 8 weeks means the discharge came within the first few weeks. It takes some time to process someone out of the military for unexpected reasons. (or at least it used to)

Or perhaps go visit your local US Marine recruiter. There is a 13 week program that will change your life. I wonder if someone should contact the nearest recruiter for Ryan and provide his phone number since he's seems to want to be a Marine so much.

Of course if we go by the age thing, then that means Ryan would either have had to graduate early (December) or have graduated last spring at the age of 16.

Dang I'm bummed. I just read this whole stupid thread and there is absolutely nothing about fried chicken in it anywhere. I loves me some fried yard bird.

No. May not be either. Posting guidelines don't cover being a lying little twerp, or making up stuff for one's own amusement.

Plus there is still that off, off............off chance that maybe the kid is just a victim of circumstance. There has to be no doubt about that kind of stuff before we drop the hammer, especially with no priors.

You can be sure that Mr. Ryan Nick is on the watch list. Mine anyway.

Frankly, it's getting ridiculous at this point (as if it wasn't already). I'm about done with it myself. I do not believe I will be sending any more text messages to that number.
Yeah send it to me as well. Kinda like a train wreck at this point, I can't seem to look away.
