yes. starting in a few weeks. the disc injuries were around a decade ago. fairly well scarred up now. it's the sporadic sciatic nerve that gets me from time to time after the last re-injury about 4 years ago.

Yeah back pain blows. And knee pain. Being a turret gunner in Afghanistan sucks because the terrain is so uneven you get launched into the air on the reg. While I didn't care as much weight as grunts on foot patrol (only had flak, kevlar, and 120-150 rounds on me at any given time - M16 and gear was carried by the truck woo), imagine being launched up in the air from 1' to 4' at unexpected intervals and often at angles (i.e. not straight up and down) over and over again. poo poo wears you down quick.

A dude in my company got his foot cut off for the dumbest reason ever. He was fat, didn't tie his boots and broke his ankle getting off a vehicle. Some retard mechanic hosed with his foot for some reason before the casevac which probably caused a ton of nerve damage. Then he got to Al-Asad or Kuwait and didn't receive prompt medical care. Due to the pain, he ended up not able to wear a sock, much less walk, for 2 years before they cut it off. Now all he does is play golf and get fatter so it can't be that bad.

Love my cast iron skillets and am trying to learn how to use the properly and see what all I can make Also crockpots rule

Now that I'm a big boy I've actually come to enjoy it and have slowly been building up my kitchen. Love my cast iron skillets and am trying to learn how to use the properly and see what all I can make I'm assuming you've gotten the basics of cast iron cooking down as far as steak (ribeye/strip/etc) as well as stuff like blackened chicken, but give skirt steak a try. Give it a simple dry rub (salt/pepper/some cumin and maybe some paprika and/or onion powder) and then toss it in the skillet on medium-high heat with a bit of olive oil for 4-5 minutes a side, congratulations you've got fajitas or the like. Just make sure you cut in thin strips against the grain, post-cooking. If you want to do things right, put the skillet on high heat before you do the steaks and heat the tortillas 10-15 seconds a side, fajitas will be infinitely better. I cooked skirt steak for the first time in a while tonight and realized how I'd forgotten how good it is. For your next cooking implement I'd recommend a ceramic coated cast iron dutch oven...useful for stews/tagines/etc. A little bit of olive oil on medium heat to brown the meat (recommend a fatty cut like chuck roast, cubed, or lamb if you're feeling adventurous), followed by dumping your stew ingredients in along with some broth, cover, and cook/stew on low/low-medium heat on the stovetop. An hour or two later you've got deliciousness. If you've feeling adventurous go for a more mediterranean influence and toss in some preserved lemons and (cooked separately previously) chickpeas along with some cinnamon and coriander along with a healthy dose of garlic. If you go that route let me know, I've got a tagine recipe that will knock your socks off. e: I forgot, if you want some crockpot ruleage, do crockpot carnitas. Seriously the best ratio of anything I cook as far as least effort/most deliciousness. Get a decent cut of pork (people will say use a butt roast but I've found better results with a center cut boneless pork loin), do a decent dry rub (cumin/salt/pepper/paprika/oregano/annato/cayenne/red pepper/onion powder/garlic powder/coriander, maybe a little basil if you want some punch or chipotle powder if you want smokiness) all over the pork, toss in crock pot with a medium sized sliced onion, cook on high for 6 hrs. When done cooking pull pork out (it'll be frying in its own juices), put on broiling type pan, and take two forks to pull. Pull pork sufficiently and broil. Use the tortilla cast iron heating method described above and serve with chopped cilantro and appropriate hot sauce (recommend cholula) as well as chopped onions if that's your thing. iyaayas01 fucked around with this message at 07:54 on Mar 17, 2015 |

I thought all of us were broken... On the plus side I got a letter last week that tells me the VA is still reviewing my disability request. So they haven't lost the paper work. I get back pay right? Because im thinking 11-12 years (depending on how long the "review" takes) is going to be ![]() If it gets me a house in Indiana, Ill be happy.

You'll get back pay dated to the day after you separated, provided you started your disability claim within 1 year of getting out. I ended up getting like 13 months of backpay, and it was loving glorious ![]() ![]()

Crock pot chili is one of my favorite recipes. Like half an hour of work, then clean up and let it go all day to get deliciousness in a bowl when you're done.
