8 years ago+4 4 0Another Reddit refugee
Hello all. About me: Old, retired after 24 years in the Air Force (several years ago). Currently using and abusing my GI Bill to get a piece of paper that says I know how to do what I already know how to do. Kids grown and out of the house, waiting on first grand-kid. Currently living in the middle of nowhere, Georgia. Redditor for ~3 years after several years on Fark. Looking for something a little more transparent than what Reddit turned into.
