C&D Farming..oh what a life!

Maybe he could marry the dog

SEALs require a 50...he got an 89! The highest is 99.

Great that he got an 89! I am really surprised that in the normal scale of things a failing grade of < 50% is good enough for an elite squad. I would have thought they would want only the best and brightest.

It’s not graded like a regular test...like the army requires a 30...marines 35...etc... So, with Ben getting an 89 he can qualify for anything he chooses...but, I’m pretty sure you know what that is....

Aw, the dog is not dependent enough? He has to go the whole way and get a wife?

Yep, no animals allowed on base...Ben really does not want to ge5 married at this point of life...but, he figures if it’s the only way to reach his goal...he’ll ge5 a prenup...because he realizes she will be probably be marrying him for the benefits...and, he does not want to lose everything he’s worked so hard for. This is sooo screwed up...but I kind of agree with his stupid logic? Not for othe4 people..but in his situation...ok, I’m biased! But Chris said ther3 are women who simply want to marry milatary men for the benefits? Let’s face it, with a Ben’s schedule, he’s not goin* to meet the kind of girl he’d really want to marry? This sound# like some bad TV reality show!

Aw, I hope he finds someone to love in addition to the dog too then...or reconsiders careers and THEN finds a sweetheart.

Or he could just give the dog to you and go after his dream.

First...the dog is part of his dream..second, the dog, is, starting to settle down, but he’s a 108lb lab, and, we’ll, he gets quite excited and jumps all over me...sooo...I don’t want his dog

The dog can be trained. Getting married so he can keep the dog with him isn't a viable plan. Does he REALLY want to be stuck with, and have to financially support, someone he doesn't care much about just to keep the dog with him? He could quite possibly be stuck with the spouse far longer than the dog lives. And pre-nup or not I bet he gets the short end if they divorce when the dog dies or he leaves the service.

@Bruce ...I totally agree with you!! I told him getting married for the military, and his dog is a HORRIBLE IDEA....he is hoping that he meats Mrs Right at the gym at 3am..and she runs as much as him....is hardcore athlethic, etc....he has a tall order!! At least in this area..those girls do not exist!! Maybe once he’s off living in. A fancy pants city..he’ll meet a girl who is just as focused on healthy healthy living...but around here, the ‘chicks’ mostly drink coffe..eat chips, then drink beer.... there’s not much to do around here.... In fact, when Chris was young...they would ‘cruise’ with ‘chicks’ and get bags of chips from the dumpster at the factory...damaged bags? Then they’d go parking with chips and beer....nice right? . Luckily he’s upped his game since then...just a tad?
Things are...not settled down by any means...but, it’s 7and I’m having dinner, eggs are washed...getting to look on here! Next I have to do farm book records..man I hate that stuff!
