I've been promoted or demoted to 1nd Lt...somewhere between a first and a second I suppose :shock:

You are our "special case", so we gave you your own rank.

It is probably just the reverse direction coriolis effect having its way.

If I was there mine would say 2st

Right -- for some reason, the "r" key didn't pick up.

<- looks at sheer volume of cat fur in keyboard...

Go figure.

So would 2nd, 3rd etc be; "2eme"?

Oui.

I noticed there's something weird going on with Gunner's rank too... seems the ol' Devil Dog is sporting a double-row of pips.

Supreme Commander? Like Ike.

Sounds good to me:thumbsup:. But I would guess Keith is working on the errors:fixit:.

Hopefully you'll get one paycheck at that pay-grade. It would make for one heck of a New Years party! :drinks::rum::singin::rum::singin::rum::cannonboom:

Now Gunner is showing 1LT insignia, but a mouseover shows "Ordinary Seaman"....

What's next -- "Command Private Major"? (Fans of Skippy will get this. :) )

Dammit, Chris, don't make me laugh like that... with whatever bug it is I've been bedridden with, whenever I laugh it triggers a coughing fit, which in turn invariably brings either a splitting headache or a rush for the loo. :(

Surprised I haven't hocked up a full lung yet... O.O

Gargle every night with 1oz of good Polish Vodka (I recommend Belvedere) at your own risk, then swallow very slowly. After repeating the application a few times, the cold germs will be too busy partying to bother you.:drinks:

Apparently there's an interesting strain of norovirus making the rounds -- looks and acts like flu, but isn't.

One day, I need to meet Skippy, so I can show him "CF's List of Things He Is No Longer Allowed To Do In CAP's Cadet Program". >:)

In the meantime, you can get The Official Skippy's List T-shirt: http://www.sharppointythings.com/tshirts-Skippy%27s%20List.html . (Full disclosure: The creator of the shirt, Michael "MadMike" Williamson, consulted me on some of the selections. ;) )

Oh, and one of the items on the list is incorrect: http://www.ncoer.com/wall.htm .... >:)
