You're welcome!  Thank you for paying taxes and allowing me to learn 
how to drink, shoot, and cuss like a Marine.  I might have got drinking 
and cussing in college, but why not learn from experts?  The "how to 
blow stuff up" course I might have paid for myself, but the extra 
tutorial in "how to screw around while on guard duty and not get 
caught" has been invaluable.
