Yeah I only really have an odd beer or two. Never three anymore.

Seemed to dial me back a lot.

Keep your mind busy. Best advice I can give you. School. Hobby.not video games solely.

I gold pan using that gold dirt you can buy online. When I get enough I am going to make a ring for my wife for all the lovely things I've done to her in the past five years. The process is therapeutic though

How is online dirt not a scam? The stream is free and not already combed through so you have a chance at something larger than flakes.

Because not every place has gold or is guaranteed to have gold. Also here, Washington, there are strict rules on when and where you can pan. This isn't using a dredge or anything just a pan. Also a lot of the rivers around me have a dam in front somewhere up the way that would sap the gold from the mountain and let almost nothing trickle past. I've done it.

You aren't paying for the gold on a weight basis. A gram of gold is like 40 dollars or so depending on the market. A dealer will sell 5 pounds of dirt for twenty bucks and you get a lot or a little from it. It's more about the experience really. Dealers who don't have anything in their bags usually get weeded out fairly quick, as people will only buy from reputable dealers and sites. I've come out on top a few times in terms of cost, but again, it's not about that.

Why the gently caress am I doing this spilling my guts here, to a bunch of loving internet people I don't know. I should be loving happy that I'm out but mostly I'm loving miserable and pissed off all the time because my girlfriend is a stupid bitch a lot of the time but the only thing keeping me going is being a dad to her daughter. I would have left my girlfriend a long time ago and then suck started that rusted mosin nagant I have in the closet alone in a lovely one bedroom apartment. buddy of mine already did that whole shebang and I didn't loving find out about for six god drat months and he was living less than twenty loving miles from me and I didn't even know. the only loving reason I don't kill myself is that little girl I call my daughter. gently caress, gently caress everything gently caress all of you gently caress me too. I'm being all loving retarded and butt hurt because of people saying poo poo to be but I'm alone and basically only have you fucks to talk with but I don't know any of you faggots and poo poo gets to me, being drunk doesn't help either but anyway smdftb faggots and goodnight

Stolen from the internet:

"As evening approached, Jesus' disciples came to Him and said, "We're in the middle of nowhere and it's getting dark. Send the Joes away so they can go to the PX and get some tobacco."

Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. We have plenty of dip and cigarettes here."

“We have here only a half-pack of Marlboro Lights and a pinch or two of Skoal," they answered.

“Bring them here to me,” he said. And He directed Joe to take a knee. Taking the Marlboro Lights and Skoal he looked up to Heaven and gave thanks to God for tobacco. Then he gave them to his NCOs and the NCOs distributed them throughout the platoon. They all smoked and dipped and were satisfied, though some E-3s complained about it being Skoal and not Copenhagen.

"Are you serious?" Jesus said. "You're complaining about this? You know what, all of you get down. GET DOWN RIGHT NOW! DO PUSHUPS UNTIL I'M TIRED!"

And the Lord did smoke the platoon and have them play reindeer games until, verily, He was tired, and withdrew to pray and ask God why He had seen fit to visit him with such terrible soldiers."

Amen.

quote:

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty: Corporal Tibor Rubin distinguished himself by extraordinary heroism during the period from July 23, 1950, to April 20, 1953, while serving as a rifleman with Company I, 8th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Cavalry Division in the Republic of Korea. While his unit was retreating to the Pusan Perimeter, Corporal Rubin was assigned to stay behind to keep open the vital Taegu-Pusan Road link used by his withdrawing unit. During the ensuing battle, overwhelming numbers of North Korean troops assaulted a hill defended solely by Corporal Rubin. He inflicted a staggering number of casualties on the attacking force during his personal 24-hour battle, single-handedly slowing the enemy advance and allowing the 8th Cavalry Regiment to complete its withdrawal successfully. Following the breakout from the Pusan Perimeter, the 8th Cavalry Regiment proceeded northward and advanced into North Korea. During the advance, he helped capture several hundred North Korean soldiers. On October 30, 1950, Chinese forces attacked his unit at Unsan, North Korea, during a massive nighttime assault. That night and throughout the next day, he manned a .30 caliber machine gun at the south end of the unit's line after three previous gunners became casualties. He continued to man his machine gun until his ammunition was exhausted. His determined stand slowed the pace of the enemy advance in his sector, permitting the remnants of his unit to retreat southward. As the battle raged, Corporal Rubin was severely wounded and captured by the Chinese. Choosing to remain in the prison camp despite offers from the Chinese to return him to his native Hungary, Corporal Rubin disregarded his own personal safety and immediately began sneaking out of the camp at night in search of food for his comrades. Breaking into enemy food storehouses and gardens, he risked certain torture or death if caught. Corporal Rubin provided not only food to the starving Soldiers, but also desperately needed medical care and moral support for the sick and wounded of the POW camp. His brave, selfless efforts were directly attributed to saving the lives of as many as forty of his fellow prisoners. Corporal Rubin's gallant actions in close contact with the enemy and unyielding courage and bravery while a prisoner of war are in the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Army.
