Nobody has asked me, but I guess I am feeling a little snarky back tonight, Like "Cause his parents are too cheap to pay for a Real College" or "because the Navy has gotta send em somewhere so they can learn to peal those spuds! "
Do you guys remember that SNL skit about the Navy from the 70's? I just love that line, "It's not just a job. It's $96.78 a week."

I've used that a couple of times when asked what attracted our son to the military. In our circles, that question is never asked with genuine curiosity, so why bother giving a genuine answer? Plus, I'm known to be flip.
