Shadowfax
Participant[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]His reference to my military background being “thin” when I spent three straight years doing counterinsurgency work also shows a lack of depth. [/quote]
I have noticed that those who have served–in any capacity–have the utmost respect for their brethren who have also been there. (A lot of us civvies do, too, although we certainly can’t know what servicemen/women have faced in the same way.) It is degrading and disrespectful for Casca to belittle anyone else’s service or sacrifice, which supports the suspicion we all have that he is a poser.
And sorry, what is PTSD? (Can never figure out the military acronyms…)

ParticipantOne acre that was a bit of a stretch or 20acres that was a screaming deal did it. I hate driving around Poway and Penasquitos on the 15 too. That that would have been a frequent necessity.I remember when I-15 was a surface street from the 805 underpass north. Now it is a nightmare by my standards. The drive from central San diego to my place is pretty easy still.
Did you give up the bike because of your kid(s)?
Shadowfax, Casca is not Surveyor. Surveyor seems O.K. to me.Different kind of oddball is all. I don’t like what he says or the ease with which he concludes that his opinions are sancrosant. I just think it is a matter of him not being able to help himself… at least with regard to certain topics.

ParticipantDan,
“Porn for a liberal”. Not in any way sure how to address that one, so I won’t.
Apparently, my not being down with the whole “agree with me totally or risk complete vilification” thingie didn’t sit well with Casca.
I’ll look up Hammes. I’ve got a buddy of mine who is an ex-SEAL and he probably knows dude.
That’ll teach you to go away for a few days, huh? And thanks ever so much for the comparison to Sean Hannity and Fox News. You’re a real gem, there, sport.
So? Jump on in. The water’s fine.
