Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Reminder: December 23rd is going to be our Christmas edition of the Friday Night Guitar Thread. Get to working on your Christmas songs now so they are done in time!

I hope I never am in a combat situation.

I don't think I would panic, I wouldn't enjoy it either

For what it's worth, nobody thinks they'd panic. It's pretty fucking stressful.

After all that, I'm convinced there are two kinds of former-Marines that saw combat. There are those who have PTSD and there are those who fool themselves. LOL

Me? The closest I came was firing suppressive fire. I tell myself that I didn't hit anyone. At the same time, it's not something I talk about. I have talked about it. I just don't care to. For better or worse, I am home, safe, warm, and well fed. Gotta love that.

I was just thinking like when I was downstairs from Verles house and the place caught fire. I didn't panic. I just calmly gathered up all the guitars and got out of there. LoL

LOL At least you saved the important stuff!

I'm not one who panics. Some folks run away when they hear gun fire. I run towards it.

Then I will run away, if need be. LOL I ain't Rambo. 'Snot like I'm gonna go take on an armed gunman, but I'm gonna confirm the state of affairs before I go making my exit.
