Greatings and glad tidings to one and all. :D

Me be a an experienced n00b. 8)

I like the forums, although I haven't a frik'in clue how you all managed to make such avatars under 6kb.
How'd you do it! :shock:

I've been at it for ages and the best I can do is 8.5kb!
And that was a 30x30 image of a white cross on a black background! :evil:

Guess the sig will have to do. 8)

Save it as a GIF, not JPEG.

Besides, you have to buy avatar and sig rights, and you're a long ways off.

Welcome. Tell us more about yourself.

Don't know, my brother is, I think. He is in boot camp. Today he called, bout 20 minutes ago, saying that he isn't graduating. He went to the doctor there, and found out he has bronchitis, phemonia and some other virus. The failed his pt (physical test) so he ain't graduating, so he may be comin home now.

You think your brother is in the Army? This should be one of those things that's easy to determine. And if he failed his final PT, he won't come home, they'll probably make him stay a bit longer is all.

Law's right.  They'll just put him on a special program to get him there.  I got sick in Basic, too.  A few liters of fluids, and I was better.  He probably failed an event that he wasn't that great at to begin with.  It happens, and they know how to fix it.  No big deal.

He failed it by a few push ups. Yeah, they will probably just make him graduate late. He doesn't even know what is going on.

That last post is outdated. We now know what is going on. He is for sure being discharged. We don't know when he is coming home, but someone called today saying he is being discharged.

Don't know why people are still posting in here if the guy's never coming back.

I HATE it when they do that!  :evil:

That's pretty wierd.  I could be wrong, but that'd make me think there's more to it than just PT.

Yeah, no kidding.  Missing your fitness test by a few pushups does not a discharge make.
