Looks cool. Make some t-shirts, they should sell.

Edited to add:

Just one more thing, I would cut it out of the parking lot and put it somewhere off road. smile

I believe that is a driveway, not a parking lot. :p

The line is actually a stain in the driveway. The people who owned it before me, never sealed the thing. This crappy tire cleaner I used to use made it worse.
Xterrain I like the idea about putting it offroad, I will mess around with it today and see what I can do.

I agree. I was just messing around with photo editor. As a result of some of the suggestions I have gotten since I posted the pic, I am trying to cut it and place it in an offroad setting.

Easily fixed.

After 5 minutes erasing and drawing:

I'm sure you could do much better the next time you're bored. laugh

Xterrain, thanks! As with anything in the last 4 years, an NCO came through.
I was just playing with a photo editor. I am new to the whole thing, and just saw that there was some cool stuff that you could do with the program.
BTW how is everything out there? One of our BDE's is currently in the "box".

The weather's cool, so they're probably cold at night. Do you know the medical liason, SFC Philips? I served with him at Fort Hood in the early 90's. He's out there in the Cav now. Fort Hood was the best 5 years of my military career. I was in the 555th Forward Surgical Team with 13th COSCOM, 1st Med Group. I miss that place. Funny thing is that when they told me I was going there, I volunteered to go to Korea instead to avoid it. Glad they turned me down.

As far as the jumping Xterra goes, I never was any good at drop shadows. laugh

SFC Phillips sounds very familiar, but I cannot put a face with the name. I left 1st BDE in May, for my current cheese job. The hours are a lot better but I miss my men badly.
Hood can be a wonderful place. Currently it is the place to be for MECH/Heavy guys. The best equipment/training the army has to offer(I believe). However, as I am sure that you have experienced, the hours do get to some guys. I had NCO's putting in 4187's for Korea to get a break.

As far as the pic goes, I think you did a great job, the fact that it looks like it is jumping is kinda cool, regardless of wether it was intentional or not.
