AirborneAFOL Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 My boy is visiting this week! He'll be home in several hours. I haven't seen him since just after basic training, 2+ years ago. At 24 he think he's the ****. I'm gonna drink the boy under the table tonight. I love it! 1. Wait till he's nice and sauced.2. Shout "At Ease!" in your best drill sergeant voice.3. Chuckle as he jumps up to the proper military position, but topples over in the process. 2 Quote

If he's Army, that's enough time to become an NCO... Quote

Rodeogeorge Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) So I built a UCS 10212 Shuttle last week and had to quickly stash it away from the meddling hands of kids. I set on our bedroom dresser and left it there for the evening. Later on, after the meddling kids were gone I assured the wife that the lego would not be in our bedroom. We have established rules in our home where displayed lego is acceptable and the bedroom is no such place. Well, I was about to move it and she actually said it looked ok and to leave it where it was (for a bit). Now I know that you all don't know... but trust me when I say WOW! Now talk about a CEO/credenza test. This set is a winner! Happy Friday all!!! GO PACK GO!!! Edited January 13, 2017 by Rodeogeorge 4 Quote

Stud-Flipper Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 I love it when you realize they gave you 11 (sometimes even 12) nuggets in your 10 piece nugget. On a side note, I hate when you only get 9. I always count. 1 1 Quote
