10. He's a former U.S. Marine, yes.
Now he's a computer geek. He's not exactly passive though.

He's a very handsome fella. :7

12. His looks are very deceiving.....
he looks so innocent, and yet I'm well aware he could snap my neck at a moment's notice. :scared:

Not that he'd want to do that or anything.....just sayin'. :P

24. Absolutely.
A former Marine is a U.S. Marine who is not currently having an aggressive dude yell a bunch of expletives at top lung capacity less than two inches from his or her face while boarding a troop transport plane for Baghdad; but who knows the experience well.

33. I was told not to use the word "former" to describe a Marine
who is no longer active.

I did alot of years of volunteer work with Vietnam vets. Somewhere along the way, I was sitting in a VFW with a whole bunch of them - and when I used the word "former", one guy corrected me reaaaallllly quick.

"We're not 'former' Marines, honey. Once a Marine, ALWAYS a Marine".

I'm not arguing with you - just tellin ya what he said. :)

35. Oh no worries, I just thought I was being funny.
I realise that 'once a Marine, always a Marine.' I also know that you can refer to a Marine as a "former Marine" but they get a might peeved if you call them 'ex-Marines.'

26. I've always thought your guy was way hot.
And then I remember that I'm old enough to be his mother. And that makes it a little creepy.



















Well, I've just given out a little too much information, haven't I? :blush:

27. Nah, no way
is that creepy. Heck if geezers like Hugh Hefner can leer after the young ladies, there should be and equal lack of shame for women leering after the handsome young dudes.

:7 Besides, looking is just looking. We all do that.

I've worried that admiring the young lads was a little, well, icky. Glad to know I can still look. :thumbsup:

Forgot to add: Baby Bunny's father is a former Marine, so I'm familiar with the allure of the dress blues. They are very attractive.

I'm going with the Oregon Marching Band to the Marine and Navy luncheon in San Diego, before the Holiday Bowl (go Ducks). And we could kinda care less about another chance to play "Louie, Louie", but ALL the girls are like, "Oh man, lots of hot men in uni's! Sign me up!"
I'm taking my camera fo sho!
