I'm gonna move in 'bout six months!

[jon lynn]

With infinite wisdom, the Army will send my GS butt to Kentucky when I graduate, is it woo-hoo, or, boo-hoo? We will see. But graduation is way off (June).

Fellow hunters, lemmie know (can someone find me PRICES for nonresident hunting looked for 2 hours last night, bubkus!).

Let me pump my ego to y'all.

I have been complaining about my life's standards, and crummy jobs for quite some time now. Some of you may remember waaaaay back when I worked in the Nurnberg factory in Germany, then me bouncin' back and forth between Europe and Oklahoma (Yeah!).

Then I got my foot in the government door with the PX, then DeCA (commissary), then Dept. of Navy, and finally (read below);

I am currently an Army Civilian Intern, in the Ammunition Managers Logistics, Career Program course, at the Defense Ammunition Center here in McAlester, Oklahoma.

If it is a bullet, bomb, grenade, artillery round, missile, rocket, gunpowder, or anything do do with that stuff, I will (soon) know all the aspects from it's need, use, storage, purchase, safety, trasnportation and all US laws for every stinking bit of it.

If I don't screw up, at the end of this year, I will become an active apprentice in an Army Ammunition DEPOT as a GS-9 (I am now a GS-7). And if I don't drop the ball there(that means screw up), after one year of OJT (on the job training) I get GS-11.

And yesterday, I learned I am going to the Bluegrass Army Depot, at Richmond Kentucky.

I am feeling pretty danged good about my self lately!

All I know about Kentucky is that it the only place where bourbon whiskey can legally be made - and it is made in dry counties!

I told you at the beginning of your trials and tribulations that it would work itself out if you persisted. A good man will always rise among inferior peers.

You just proved it again.

Hey DON WALKUP,

It is indeed the same Kiowa. There ain't squat here! Why do you think Reba Mcentire left, AND NEVER CAME BACK!

Jon, congraulations. You`ll only be a couple 100 miles for me and after many years of reading your post maybe I`ll get to meet you. I once went clear to Idaho to meet Rocky, and hunt coyotes.

Jon,

We all have to pay our dues. I had some real sucky jobs for a long time then things started working out. Been that way for me for a while now. Way to go. You'll like Kentucky.

[popplecop]

I think you'll like Kentucky, most of the outdoor people I've met from there are laid back, straight shooting sort of people. If you are offered young woodchuck done on a Weber grill itis excellent table fare.

Now that sounds awesome!

All the best to you in your future endeavors. Once you get settled, look around for some decent gun shops. All the best...
