In my opinion don't ask don't tell should be done away with being gay does not affect your ability to fight in the military. I see don't ask don't tell as a discriminatory policy that hurts the U.S. military instead of keeping good soldiers the military throws them out for their personal desire to mate and/or have sex with the same gender.

Gays being in the military is a win/win situation.
They have big muscles, they are typically perfectionists
--could you imagine some husky 300lbs deadliftin' macho
homo in the marines having his bf/butt-buddy injured?
He'd go on a rampage!! He'd be better than Rambo, and hotter.

See, I think that's a shame; AS shouldn't disqualify someone from serving in the military; I assume there would be benefits from having us as soldiers, don't you? You don't have flat feet, do you?
And no, I haven't seen any of those movies, honestly. Sorry.

Depends how well we can tolerate verbal abuse and submitting to authority unquestioningly. _________________ Don't look back, because infinity is waiting.

I thought that ADHD would be a positive asset in certain parameters, like combat. But what the heck do I know, right?
Please do go to school, and please do something about those nasty chemical corporations because of how they are destroying the natural strains of crops we have today. I was talking to a guy-friend and he was telling me about how standardized farming methods are destroying the environment (and his family's farm.) Now I get really upset when I think about the DOW chemical company.

Perhaps try Chemical Engineering? (Yeah, it's my field)
You take all the same classes, but plus some engineering courses, and pays twice as much (just make damn sure you take on internships).
From the first post you made and this one, I'd conclude that the interviews for the internships are somewhat easier? BTW, how has your job search been going? _________________ Don't look back, because infinity is waiting.
