Epic Moments In Your Life...

[TonyMCev]

I'd say the first time I was shot at, followed closely by the first time I had to take a life. Nothing was ever the same after those 20 seconds.

combat? LEO?

I know it'd be hard to deal with, but better for you to take theirs and you still be here, than the other way around.

I would have to say getting married, and the day I got my fish (submarine warfare qualification pin) would be at the top of my list.

Most epic is the day my kiddos were born.

One moment that comes up often in my mind and reminds me how trivial a lot of shit is...one day in Iraq (as a Civilian)...1 a rocket hit near the shitter I was going to use and 2 I was still close to it, but that basic training stuff paid off. Lot of shrapnel holes all over the place, but not in me. After my ears quit ringing I smoked about 20 cigarettes and was glad to be alive. All other explosions and such after that seem minor, even a car bomb once...

I'd imagine the troops get used to it as even i did. However, that one was a REALLY close call for me. There was an AF guy in the shitter I was GOING to use - he used his noodle and broke the seat hitting the deck. Saved his life too since a concrete barrier blocked everything low. There were about 5 or so holes where his head would've/could've been otherwise.

Incoming rounds are the greatest cure for constipation in the history of mankind.

It says red bull cola, isn't that the coke-like drink they made? I haven't seen that stuff anywhere in a while now that I think about it.

Yeah, I used to like that stuff. Then it gave me a heart attack.

Come to think of it, I probably could have sued somebody. Oh well.

That stuff is bad shit-

&quot;Red Bull pulled in Germany after cocaine test &quot;

I drank 8 red bulls one night, I couldn't sleep because my heart was beating too loud.

The first time my eyes saw vagina, the first time my fingers felt vagina, the first time lips tasted vagina, the first time my penis touched vagina... I think you get the idea.

Stress from finals, combined with adderall (I was prescribed) and 2 big ass redbulls.

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling like I was getting stabbed in the chest repeatedly with a knife, so I went to the hospital. They asked me how much cocaine I had done, and when I said &quot;none&quot; they got in my face and said they really needed to know how much. It took several back and forths for them to finally believe me.

Wish I had a cooler story to tell, maybe something that started off with &quot;so these two hookers were snorting coke off of my junk...&quot; but hey, wadaya gonna do.

Stress, genectics or an 8 ball?

I have had quite a few emotional peeks in my life both good and bad . Its funny and cool the way these times burn into your memory and the way they can fash back in the blink of an eye . My best would deffinatly be the birth of my son and the way everthing I had ever done in my life in that moment seamed meaningless . The worst would be seeing my grandfather days before he died from canser . These are the things that give us depth and make our life exsperiance worth something .

Probably when my best friend died on the way to work on his motorcycle in 2008. Epic in the worst possible way.

Also when I had a heart attack my sophomore year of college. That sucked.
