Yes, George, I remember seeing you at the annual meeting. I made a note to myself, not to attend that event again. Everyone standing around reminding each other of our stupid moves. Regardless how ill advised they were, it was a reminder that there's always room for improvement, even though we think the most recent took the cake.
To this day, I remember the talk the company commander gave us, the night before we got our first liberty after graduation from Basic, and before we went on to our A schools. He offered words of wisdom, and caution. I think he told us something to the effect, that Love may fade, but Herpes is Forever.
Being a charter member of the SM club means, that despite no longer having to pay annual dues, the only route to leaving the club, is to die.**
**Edit: Actually, that's not true either. As I recall, there's a bunch of pictures, called the Wall Of Shame, where members who have passed on are Honored for making moves so incredible, they are assumed to be unbeatable.
