Had you been able to join the service your Uncle Sam would have given you a nice shelter half.

Gotta love the shelter halfs Rick. Very useful for alot of things. And yes I am sure Uncle Sam would have given me one of them had I been able to sign up. Sadly I know I would not be able to due to the surgery that I have had on my feet.

The only tent I would consider spending a night in would be an Arab sheiks and that is only if his harem of beautiful woman came with the deal...
