"While Texas is a perfectly wonderful place to live for most people, former Marines, wimps that they are, might find the going a bit tough. Try France! ;-)"

Ah do bee-li-uv yew must be either a swabbie or dogface, eaten alive with Corps-Envy..:))

T'was within my extraordinary ability to bear, but was extremely distasteful..:))

Ya ever been to Elliott's Beach at Parris Island???!!!
The Swamp was more fun than Texas.

Furthermore, there is no such thing as "former" Marine! One does not divorce the Corps, and it is one's identity for life and Beyond, guarding the Pearly Gates.....
