Clear your messages will just say this here. Been a long ass time, since we last talked.

Hey Jason long time no talk. Finally got my life back together and I don't worry about shit anymore I just get the job done lol... I ended up joining the air force and became a crew chief on F-16s I live in Arizona and I have no family there, but I made alot of new friends and I am finally open about things and enjoying life. So how did you heal up after that back surgery? Training is going good still sitting at 210lbs and do 3 mile run in about 21 minutes, so its not a bad deal at all plan on getting better at the run and then focusing on better goals and just finish my bachelor's degree and explore civilian job opportunities once I get out of the military.

Iabadman has been through a lot lately...

Has anyone spoken to him in the last couple of weeks? I'm wondering how he is doing?

I hope he does well again he was a standup guy when I spoke with him back in the day.

badman, good luck with the AF, great opportunity to travel and see the world and also good benefits. As a crew chief you should do allot of TDY's and deployments. Just remember it is what you make of it.

Badman ........very good to hear from you my long lost pal .........I am alive .Barely ,I am afraid . But hanging tough.

Anyway , wow ,I am very proud of you . Very . [always have been ,but even more so now ] Serving your country is an honorable career without a doubt. Some guys go in without the understanding of just how important your job really is and just do it because they feel that's all they can do .But serving your country is a privilige ,so treat it so . Whether you are finding yourself , starting a career in the military , or just serving to create opportunity .[ie....college or a skill] Serve with pride ,respect , and appreciation.Your expirience will be much happier if you do .

For you guys that don't know Badman .He is a heck of a young guy .One of the few young guys that really bought into DC 's methods and did it right .[made Dante proud I would say ] He made tremedus gains and was a terror in the squat rack .He was a hard working and dispalined young guy when he had no reasons to be . He has been through alot in his young days and has every reason to end up a statistic . But he has class ,loyality ,and refuses to give in. Our country is lucky to have a guy like him serving without a doubt .

Thanks for checking in .......as long as I am breathing .....you all count and you all matter.....[I will start a thread with an update and such in a few minutes]

Hang in there Jason I know your to stubborn and tough to give in like myself.

Thanks I will serve my country with honor. Even though at work peoples' morale is pretty low long days, weekend duty and everyone whining and complaining gets to everyone depressed mood enviroment lol....... Doesn't work on me though still the happy go lucky guy who just keeps to myself works hard and gets compliments that I work hard even as a brand new guy still trying to understand and learn everything about my job. I am probably going to serve 20 years 4-6 year contracts at a time haha.... Just thought to be 39 years old and retired with 50% base pay is pretty damn sexy and then I can just relax and start a new career and work hard at that one.

Actually going to learn how to fight now fought one of my very best friends who is training for MMA six round tournament where I live around and its coming up later this week. Did one round of boxing with him and three rounds of grappling I lost all four times, but I have never been scared of anyone in my life still to this day. He sure did kick my ass but I don't know how to pass out so it made it difficult lol.... Each match lasted around 3-4 minutes, so it was a fun experience. Was great to hear him tell me how strong I got never noticed guess its from all that consistancy in the gym lol... I have a good feeling Luke will when his tournament and one day fight one of my other friends Keith "KO Kid" Berry can't wait for that day. Rambling on a bit, but I will practice how to fight because I never learned how to fight, so it was very difficult to face someone with experience who could just strike me down in four hits to face before I said fuck it I am done lol...
