Sakebomb today, regrets tommorrow

Hey everyone, this is my formal introductions post.
I lurked around here for a while and found this to be a decent place for information exchange and intelligent conversation. A nice relief from the penny-arcade forums (home to more trolls than the army of mordor)

Anyway, I look forward to wasting away many hours here while at work.

Welcome Sakebomb!

Ah yes, the sakebomb. I bear the distinction of being thrown out of Miyakes for being too rowdy. No mean feat. Kanpai!

Welcome
I'm in the JFHQ at Camp Mabry. Pretty boring gig actually, but a welcome change of pace from Iraq.

Hmm....Republic of Texas Militia sounds way cooler btw. I like it
