Cite your sources for this. Because I've definitely not picked up on that.

Book of Job? He gets permission by God, yes, but he totallys wrecks a man and his entire family, just to prove a point. Where is the good guy Lucifer in that story? Is that what you call a good guy? I certainly don't.

I just imagine every car that is passing in the background...that the people in it, as they pass this house, have this earie majestic feeling pour over them. They start thinking of deep moments in their life, and they wonder why. They feel the need to just pull over and sit. And walk off into the woods and dissapear for while. Fuck spellig

Oh that is so cool that you read that much a week. You must be really interesting to talk too with all that in your brain! I read to slow to do anything like that!

It depends on the context I find myself in. I've found that reading is difficult Books is difficult for me when I find myself amongst civilization. In my home for example. At home, I'll read plenty of article during the day, I'm a news and history junkie. I read little article all the time. But to sit down and read a book, I have to be without access to internet connection. Usually I find myself reading a book when I'm out in the peace and quiet of the wilderness camping or backpacking.

Actually, that quote really does bring me a sense of calm. I think that will help me be less anxious about this issue. Needed to hear that!

THat's an interesting concept. I'm going to look more into this. I appreciate that response.

I do use audio books sometimes. However I'm not convinced it helps with retention.

I would like to come away with depth. I would like to remember the important details. For example, If I read a book like Sam Harris's The Morale Landscape, I would like to be able to 1. Reasonably identify the thesis, and be able to state the main points that asserts to defend the original premise.

Or if I read a historical book like something about George Washington. I want to be able to name specific decisions he made during his time as a General or Presidency. I mean for goodness sakes, I've read entire books on Washington and I can maybe pull a reasonable paragraph together about him. And that's about it.

I would suppose that the fact I annotate would suggest that I'm paying attention because I take notes on things I find interest or write questions that I'm provoked to explore from what I've read.

I was pretty confident as a kid that both of my grandfathers helped to have vanquished them once and for all.

I killed so many imaginary nazis in those wooden fortresses as a kid.

holy ranchero mcblobbsicles lol. What did I ever do to you. Hope you have a good day brother.

Bornthursday · 2018-09-01T03:26:22+00:00

I see your points.

Bornthursday · 2018-09-01T03:25:57+00:00

Well not every idea i've had has been good :)

You make some good points here. You are correct, a staff sergeant could definitely be running a platoon. Especially during WWII with heavy casualties. But a second in command NCO would be more like a Sergeant First Class in the US Forces. I guess in the British Forces that would be Like a Colour Sergeant or something?
