    Downtime Due To Upgrade

    I'm pleasantly surprised at those prices. I do a lot of photo work and save all my work to external drives. If I didn't I'd fill my current hd which is 500gb quickly. I have a friend that has an SSD and it's so fast I can't believe it. That's for the info Anthony, It's appreciated. Jar

    Downtime Due To Upgrade

    I'm just waiting for the prices for SSD's to drop a bit before I move all my machines to them. Hoping that's soon. Let's face it, a hard drive has a spinning disc in it, it can only last so long. Yeah a TB in an SSD is like at least 1K which is a bit out of my price range. I can build a pc for...

    Ptsd Childhood Trauma

    Hey Joyce As Duchie says, this site is for Combat Vets with PTSD. The sister site is where you really want to go. You'll find a great deal of help, support and information there. Unfortunately, you will be banned from here due to the fact that you're not a vet with PTSD. I do hope you find the...

    Sir Winston Churchill Saw It Coming.

    Sure, I totally agree with that. And I'm sure it won't change either. Don't believe in religion mostly due to all of them being the same with;' believe in this one all the other's are wrong' idealogy. Not lookin' to change the world, maybe just my little corner, under my rock.

    Sir Winston Churchill Saw It Coming.

    I'm just another guy here on this site but I've gotta' say a couple of things. I'd ask everyone to try and avoid the racism and racial hatred posts. They truly serve no purpose other than to stir the PTSD pot. I grew up as a jewish kid in an irish/italian neighborhood so I learned about racism...

    Va Is Far From Being Fixed

    It hasn't changed a bit, nor will it. It's just like someone that gets caught doing something they shouldn't. First they lie, then they talk about how they're going to fix it but in time their behavior goes back to what it was. As always, be a good consumer, know what you need, think about how...

    How The Ac-130 Destroyed At Least 20 Vehicles Per Night During Vietnam War

    The C-130's would drop these flares; they were the size of a 5gal bucket. It would light up as far as you could see like it was day time. Then they would target they're objective and fire. It was just a stream of orange death. I always hoped they didn't get their coordinates wrong. Still the...

    Tinnitus

    Mine too, our hearing is more acute at night. Sometimes it's worse than at other times. Too much caffeine can make it worse. I just try not to focus on it if possible.

    Acupuncture For Ptsd...maybe Not

    I use acupuncture for the physical ailments that I have. I don't know much about the 'studs' thing or about it's use to treat psychological problems. It helps me with my problems and It's why I go and will continue to. It can't fix things like nerve damaged area but can help with chronic pain...

    Funeral Details

    Hey 19K30 That has got to be the hardest duty of all. Combat is what it is but to do what you did I think is more difficult in a completely different way. There's something inescapable about it. Jar

    What A Week...

    Yeah, one thing for sure you don't want to hear is your Doc saying that 'they're concerned about something or that they've never seen anything like that before. Best of luck.

    Now Ptsd Is All Our Fault

    I can't tell you how many were 'inducted' into the Marines when I joined. Nice choice. Wish they'd asked me.

    Border Patrol Draws On & Threatens Boyscout

    That's outrageous! Guess Martial Law's already been declared. And since when is it a federal offense to take a photo of a fed agent? They're all out of control.

    As always Mate, Thanks for all you do on a continuing basis. You may or may not realize the positive impact of what this site and the others as well do to help people. I don't think I'd be here now if I hadn't of found this site and that's no bull shit. Thanks. Jar

    I Hate The Va

    Hey Marine In a way you're on a road to your own better life. Sadly, the VA will be tagging along for the rest of it. Kind of like an old girlfriend that you just can't seem to get away from. There are a ton of programs available through the VA, they're there for us so don't be afraid to ask or...

    Department Of Justice Is Taking My Case.

    Hey Bar I hope it works out well for you. Not so much from a monetary point of view but from getting the respect and treatment due a wounded vet. I sometimes still can't believe the asshats out there that have no clue that WE are the ones that have provided the freedoms that they enjoy. I hope...

    I Hate The Va

    I'll just add that I spent a lot of years full of rage and anger toward the VA, it hurt me more than it hurt them. Believe me when I say that I'm not in love with them now either. But I changed my tack, realized that I had to work with the system the way it was and in a way that would best help...

    I Hate The Va

    OK, you'll have to take a ticket to the 'We HATE THE VA Club'. I know it's not funny and I'm not making a joke but we're all there, sadly, in the same boat. Don't let it get you too pissed off or discouraged, it's what they want. Then you'll go away. Don't do that, they have what you need and...

    This Is What's Wrong With The U.s.

    Hmm, maybe you got a room over your garage I could rent?? People here, I think, look at frivolous lawsuits as a way to 'get rich quick' and not have to work. It's pretty sad really and bogs down the already over burdened court system as it is. As far as the kid's stuff goes, I agree that...
