We might have, I'm so busy these days I have a hard time remembering what I ate for lunch, never mind all the threads I'm trying to keep up with.

I'm actually still in, but I got permanently grounded on a medical, got a crappy eval because of it, and now will likely not screen for O-4. I have 2 more looks after this year, and when I don't make it in that 2015 board the Navy will tell me to have a nice life. I'm trying desperately to stay on at the Academy as a military professor, but that is O-4 minimum. I have a lot of very senior officers who are frustrated about that, so we'll see. I have a couple years, but I'm starting to explore my options. Oh, and the first 4 of my years is Academy, so technically active but only counts after you hit 20.

Sorry to hold a conversation off topic. We should "get a room!" Haha. But I hope it all works out for you. I had a good time during my 4 years in the Navy.

The shooting happened Tuesday, this week. Sorry, can't get quoting to work on this device.

Ive always assumed majority of dog parks were more like our fairly self-monitoring system. Is this not true?

I know the dog park here in Oak Harbor is part of our tax-supported District ran parks (which also runs the pool that I work at, so I work for the guy that is in charge of the dog parks lol.) Its "free" in a sense that its paid for through taxes.

Before the guy shot the dog he also tazered it and didn't give the owner a chance to get their dogs separated before he opened fire

This is why I don't allow my husband to carry at the dog park. He's not used to dog playing of any kind, so he freaks out when Karli acts all submissive (and she's ALWAYS submitting lol.) He gets worried that the dogs are hurting her. I have to keep telling him that her tail is still waving so she's fine.
