Restored post

Thanks to Remedial Training on Friday by Sergeant Victor, the most rigorous of the various Specialists when it comes to RT, I, on Saturday and currently, have cramps in various parts of my body.

The two places which hurt the most are my pectoralis major (the area on the front of the body just in front of the armpit) and my lower stomach - a place I didn't imagine was possible to cramp - probably thanks to the situps on the 45 degree inclined surface (that's with your head lower than your body, not the other way around) that he made me do.

For RT today, only 3 of us (including 1 Lion guy) were present. So of HQ's 8, 6 weren't there. I know 2 are ambulance drivers (maybe that's why they chose to do Ambulance duty, besides the fact that they can sleep the whole day as the ambulances are almost never sent out), and 2 took MCs (gah). I think next week I'll book in on Sunday morning. No one cares, not that anyone is around to anyhow. Anyway the punishment meted out to one person for missing Weekend RT was 1 confinement, so I assume the worst they can do to me is give me 1/2 a confinement!


My mother is gifted with the ability to use the most antagonistic language possible. I was asked to check when Golden Crown closed yesterday, before we went there for dinner. When I visited the website for the information instead, she commented that I "don't dare to call".

A most unique skill, that, and one of dubitable merit.


My bill for the month ending August 18th wasn't $138 after all, but ~$80 - I -was- a little suspicious that the bill for July and August was the same.

No sooner spake I than I found the answer!

I should've know the Straight Dope'd have it!
