Hey guys. I am a noob. I am 26, married with no kids, ex marine, and now work self employed as a lumber broker. We are finally settling in our new house and I am in a position to stop spending 10k on my backyard (groan) and start enjoying myself again. I know little to nothing and am starting to frequent a few sites to learn all I can. I am going tomorrow to hit the local shop, and pick up a few for the weekend. I am so excited. I smoked a bit when I was 21, but knew nothing and bought stuff based on price (and got ripped at that!). This time around, I am taking my time and doing it right.

Well, thats it on me. Have a nice one :)

Welcome to another brother Jarhead. There are a few of us around so you'll feel right at home. What MOS were you?
 
Initially 3531 (Motor-T). Later trained on 0811 (155 Arty). Did a 6 year stint in the reserves and couldn't re-enlist because of 2 bad discs. Who would have thought toting 100lb rounds around all day could do that to you :) The real pisser is 3 months after I got out, my unit got activated and is currently on the last 2 weeks of MP training before they head to the big sandbox. :angry:

Welcome and enjoy. Don't worry, we don't hold Marine Background against anybody... not everybody can be smart and join the AF.
