I might change mine to the French Foreign Legion - I saw a DVD on their training and they're harder than a coffin nail...

Ironically, the record for their obstacle course in The Congo is completion in 45 minutes - it took a visiting group of Marines 8 hours...

Umm it is AN obstacle course -the Legionaires had never seen it before either. And any way you slice it, 8 hours is a long time to get an obstacle course done.

I really do not know where to start with your ramblings:

OK first of all there have been massive changes to legislation to ensure that people with criminal history are vetted pre-enlistment, but who would you rather face: Hardened criminals or school leavers?

The 8 hours was done by a group of Marines. It is the longest time at the Congo Course. This was in 1999.

The moment you arrive at the Legion training you will not be responded to unless you talk in French. This adds to the already world-recognised miltary training experienced, in addition to adding to the almost inhumane psychological standards of the training.

Seriously, there is a reason FFL areas are no longer listed as world hot spots...

Most of the people in the legion are criminals or have been kicked out of other militaries

And unlike the FFL, the Marines and other forces are actually fighting somewhere

When I was in Afghanistan I was a whole lot more impressed by the British and Aussies over there.

Who were you with?

[QUOTE="brickbazooka05"]I'm doing 1,200 miles on the Appalachian Trail this summer. Where's that Dead Man's canyon?MythofSisyphus

It's in the Sierra Nevads... 1200 miles... damn... hope to be that extreme one day. Happy hiking!

I used to think the same thing until I realized it's just one foot in front of the other. All you need is time. :)

Good luck with your trip.

[QUOTE="brickbazooka05"]My brother's 360 did this even when he had his horizontal, but all that we had to do to get it to open was smack the top of the 360 pretty hard. A few weeks later his 360 got the three red lights, so i would recommend sending yours in. SuP3R_TooT

did it occur to you that the RROD came about because u was smacking the top of it ?

yes, but i was just trying to tell this kid how to get it to open, and i was trying to tell him that the best thing to do is probably send it in.

Can't be bothered to post individual scores for 57 games but I've got 21045 overall.tamsj04

I agree, I have 23,259.
