Damn. Sorry to hear that man. Thoughts and prayers to you and all touched by this.

 

Ouch. I've lost friends to this cancer bullshit....sorry man. Thoughts n prayers your way.

 

Seconding what's been said above, prayers as well. Take care bud.

 

Sorry to hear that. Prayers sent. Sounds like he was a helluva fighter.

 

I'll see you're bad fighting, and raise you another:

Damn, sorry to hear that Rob

Sounds like he had a lot of people that loved him. Good to hear that he got to meet his daughter, and spend his last days with his loved ones. My condolences.

 

Hey Rob,

If ya don't mind me asking.......How old was Matt?

My in-law Shane knew Matt.

 

Thanks fellas for the kind words.

He was 31

If ya also don't mind, what's Shane's last name? Small world for acquaintances.

 

Damn.....wayyyy too young!!!! Ridiculous.

My boy Shane Forte. He's my familia!!!!!!!

 

Going to sign up for this event. Hopefully within the next couple years I, along with group of friends, will doing Tough Mudder. This one is WAY shorter than Tough mudder but suppose to have more obstacles per miles than Tough Mudder. Should be fun.

 

A couple guys from my unit, and I were lookin at that one. Looks like a blast.

 

For some reason I can't post anything anymore. Not sure if work computer related or not. Anywho, the event is Rugged Maniac. Eventually, I'll want to do Tough Mudder. Had a few interest this year but they eventually backed out. Starting slow I guess

 

3.1 miles with 18 obstacles..I give it 1 hr max to finish the course(depends on how fast the rest of the folks are going). Kind of sad actually lol and I'm paying how much!!??!

 

So I figured I would put up some pictures from a couple weeks ago I took on one of our training missions. Awesome countryside here in Oregon, and this is always a hell of a way to see it.

 

Yeah they always seem to cost a bit.

 

Nice! Field Op?? I went on a Helo once during a field op out in 29 Palms, CA..dropped me(PFC at that time) and two other Marines off in the middle of no where on the top of a mountain with a quadcon full of comm gear to set up a retrans site. It was my first time and the experience was awesome!

 

A few big bosses from my work and I are doing Rugged Maniac, we signed up for the 10 am slot! I better start getting into shape haha

 

I'll be signed up for the 1pm slot. Should be fun!

 

I'm kinda picky when it comes to that genre. I need to have the song feel like it's going somewhere or have interesting twists... or just have "that funk". I'm more into blaxploitation soul/funk and whatever you call the hindi variant of the same.


I came across it because I was trying to find more based off of these songs:
