BUT, as a recruiting tool? That seems so evil, because it's hugely enticing especially to a nominally unempowered demographic.
Isn't that pretty much the entire recruiting strategy right there?
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

I don't know. The whole adult baby/diaper fetish scene is world headquartered here.
I think Portland could actually beat both our fair cities, but they're smaller and thus fly under the national radar.
But I'm willing to concede that both Portland and Seattle are left (in the progressive politics sense) of SF.

No, I'm waiting for the ferry--No, not him; the boat that goes into the city.

Our wings are not tired.
A friend of mine was telling me that if you are looking for citizenship and you enlist in the army, you become a citizen after 9 months. True or false?
Wow. FIL was in the Air Force for 20 years and never became a citizen. Then again, he didn't want to either.
Yay Seattle. Well done.

I remember reading early on that some soldiers were made citizens postmortem. Vaguely. So this could be wrong. But it seemed so...sad.
I wish I had a scanner. I just dug up my passport from when I was 15, and found high school pictures (senior pictures! Gee, I was...blondish. With no assistance) and three from me about age 3 or 4, one looking classic grumpy me. And old school ids. A couple of early college shots. Very amusing. Officemate will laugh. We had a deal- he brings in his 1970s high school pictures (afro! Massive afro! Leisure suits! Ruffles!) and I bring in mine (early 90s.) Hee.

Send them to us, sara! We'll scan 'em!

Hee. I may indulge in a scanner. Or get someone at work to do it. Less postage, you know;)

Also, my jaw was MUCH rounder. Babyfaced, even though I was probably 50 lbs lighter.

Send 'em. I just got the scanner reconfigured.

You just want to see them before anyone else, don't you?
I might actually be able to get them scanned this weekend.
