    "Worst Movie Of All Time"

    Adam Sandler should just stop making movies, "I now pronounce you chuck and larry" was a giant turd as well.

    No Country For Old Men

    I liked it, the way they killed off one of the main characters and the ending was very "unhollywood".

    NATO Generals Meet in Canada, and Who's Gonna Meet 'EmThere?

    I worked in the hotel for this although I was on the nightshift so I missed the big protest.  Dayshift workers said about one hundred protesters were there, and only one guy who was riding his bike naked got arrested.  Very much over-hyped.

    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    $400 a month is ALOT of food a month. You can find a place ot rent here for about $600 to 650/month for a 650 sq ft 1 bedroom apartment.

    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    Because living in nelles block sucked and I couldnt wait to get out.  First year salary is actually pretty good if you are not spending $400/month on rations.

    So you're posted to a NAVY base and you're ARMY.

    The Navy has BMS as well, or at least we did at NRS Esquimalt.  Cookies, nuts and chocolate milk which dissapeared quite fast.

    Any favourite BMQ memories?

    We were at farnham in the winter, this one OS had his gloves fall into the porta-potty.  He got into big trouble from the staff.  When he told us about it, one PTE suggested to do what he does and put them in the "sink". He was called Private Pissmits for the rest of the course.

    Military Swim Test - When, Where, and How- Merged

    I don't think passing the swim test was a requirement to pass BMQ, however, if you fail you get to do remedial swimming lessons with the others who failed while everyones else does Pool PT.

    Ship's Boarding Party [Merged]

    I don't think anyone is going to jump on you, I think the general concensus is that that is one ugly badge.

    cd players on BMQ??

    I recommend bringing one, but if you can, an Ipod might be better as they will take up less of your personal space which is very limited.

    The $500 Car

    When I was in High school (mid nineties) my dad bought me an 1981 Chevette for $900, I decided I wanted something cooler (an 82 Firebird, horrible car) and sold it for $800 to a co-worker of my dad's. I think they just got rid of it after close to ten years. In the late 90's I bought a 1981...

    Questions about living at Nelles Block...

    NETP is 5 weeks. If you are 3's qualified you will have the choice of living on base (Bernay's) or getting your own apartment.  If you choose to get an apartment, they will give you some money to help pay part of the security deposit (which is peanuts) or if you buy a place they will pay for...

    Questions about living at Nelles Block...

    You can have up to four roomates.  When I left there they were in the process of adding tvs to all the rooms and were going to make cable free.  You can put a landline and internet in if you want, most people just used a cell phone though.
