While in Japan, I ran into a fellow who waddling this type of work.  He was convinced it was easy to get into, even without a Bachelors degree.

I may:  highly consider this over reenlisting.

I'd have to serve an additional 11 years to get that, and by then, if I pursued this career path, I would likely be discounted as a dirty old man...just like if CdM tried it. :P

11 years go by quickly.  Then with a pension you can do whatever the fuck you want with your life.

Nonsense, my father began teaching at a school in his 50s.

Go for the Pension first. You'll be a dirty old man, but in japan, land of the old, you'll be a spring chicken.

Don't say that. I don't have many 11 year increments left.  :(

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

My research has proven that the most preferred superpower by Korean middle schoolers is the ability to teleport.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Makes sense.  If I was in Korea I would want the ability to leave as soon as possible as well.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I had them fill out a sheet about themselves. Favorite food, color, singer, movie, etc. One of the questions was what superpower they'd have.

I just saw a kid reading a history of modern Germany in manga form. America wore a cowboy hat. :alberta:
