Real life, just dont mention names...
I was 18, young, dumb, and in over my head. I delivered a pizza to a local hotel, and saw a stunningly beautiful woman at the front desk..Not neading them, I asked for directions, and after delivery started flirting with her.
This led to a full on 18 with a 33 year old smoking hot long raven haired beautiful Indain princess. My God, she was beautiful, we would go out to the bars, yes i had a fake ID, and people would buy her and her son drinks all night long..
Soon after I met her, I found out she was married. I met her husband, and he concluded she should divorce him, and be with me.
One evening while its snowing its tail off, he asks me to go walking with him, he was shaking and obviously freaked out. i thought, Wow, he is gonna kill me..
We walked for about 10 minutes, along the Highway, and he is steady looking around...I thought "well If he had a gun and shoots me, hope someone see's it!"
He proceeds to tell me this story--He has a master key to all the rooms at this motel, and the day before had snuck into an out of service room to use the toilet, and the table was STACKED with cocain..He told me the owner of the motel was a major dealer, and he was fearful of his life...That if he "suddenly committed Suicide" to tell the police what he had just told me, and that since I was good person, he could trust me with his secret..
This is a lot for any 18 year old kid to process..
sadly, I lost a relative that week, and i escorted another relative to Arkansas, without even being able to go see her..It was the weekend, I had been gone for about four days before calling the motel to talk to her..I rang the front desk, and was told she had taken off, but was staying in "the work room"(another room where people slept, showered, whatever), so they rang her room. I still remember ever word Me-Hello. her-UM Hello.Me-hey baby, what are you doing?. Her-John- No theres no John here. Me- Hello-Are you drunk-its me DEEBO...Her- Im sorry I just dont know a John...Hangs up..
I called my firend and he said " I saw your lady walking the mall, holding hands with another guy, she had hickeys all over her."
I was crushed, thinking of all the things, I gave that bitch my dog..he needed a bigger space,...
Well, I returned to NM about two weeks later, and saw her kids at the mall. KIds that I had buaght Christmas presents for, Kids that liked me...I said where is your mom? they told me, and I walked towards her..
She said "Oh hi Deebo" Where have you----I never broke stride, just looked dead at her and said "MY NAMES JOHN" and kept walking..I could see in a mirrored column that she had started crying..
The moral of this real life story, If a person is willing to cheat with you, they are willing to cheat on you.
I have no idea what happened to the husband, or her.

Fixed a malfunctioning .50 cal machine gun with a gerber and no experience, nearly lost a hand/life... on the plus side I fixed the weapons jam.

I got one for ya, lol Lets see if I can make this short and sweet.

Best friend at the time had a cheating husband. They separated. They lived on the same property (over 700 acres) in separate houses. Cheating husband brings apparent longtime girlfriend to other house to cook steaks. Makes soon to be ex wife mad. I have to man handle her and take a 30-06 away from her, she was fixing to go shoot both of them...for me to turn around and have to watch her drive off in her vehicle. While I'm standing there with a look of disbelief on my face as to what has already happened..(I had two friends that showed up about the time she drove off and was explaining to them what was going on) about 10 minutes later her son who appeared out of no where comes driving her up in his truck and she hops out all billy bad ass acting????? Come to find out when she sped out of the drive way she went cruising up the other drive at a high rate of speed and run into the back end of cheating husbands girlfriends vehicle and rammed it into the side of his house. Gets out and throws the steaks they are grilling on the back patio and cusses them out. Then continues on this rampage and kicks out two windows in her living room. It took a total of about 5 of us to contain this little woman who weighed about 130 and 5' tall. We had discussed putting Xanax in her beer...lol

I was on my walk around the neighborhood wearing a blaze orange vest. A black male approached me with his right hand in his jacket. He looks to see if anyone is watching, asks if I live around here and started pulling his hand out. I drew a .38 caliber revolver which my hand had been on and yelled: "Police, that's close enough!" I pointed the gun at his chest and he turned and ran. I called the Sheriff's Department who searched the area with no luck. I'm sure he intended to rob me. I was a heartbeat away from having to kill him. I'm glad I had my .38 spl and 5 +P Golden Sabers. I'm also glad I didn't have to shoot him.

Same here. Where'd the "like" option go? Have I been gone THAT long?!?!

Come on guys, the like option is hidden, just scroll over the lower right hand area of a comment, and it will magically appear..
Yes, some of us get tired of hearing about "12volt tricle cell diplazma tutonium photovilatic panels", and I personally dont click on them, but to me, its all about sharing things with like minded people, are we always gonna agree, and sit around Montana ranchers fire toasting bourbon and singing com-buy-ya, no, but To share an exeprience with someone?
man right now I wish I could just sit and talk with my Grandpa, the things I was always to busy for..Ask him where he was when that ship sank after delivering the bomb? He was Navy..
So, for me and my "young generation" it is prepping just to hear from more experienced, more travelled more "BORING and DULL" guys like RPD, becouse along the way, it has been lost, and there are millions on miliions of questions...
Damn, i guess Im still rambling...Need to take a couple of Prozac..
and RPD, man I would love to hear your most mundain and boring stories..

Craziest scary scenario?

Back in my high school days, I was bangin this insanely hot chick. Her dad comes busting in, shotgun in hand. I'm butt naked grabbing my stuff. No time to dress, and left my truck keys in her house. I'm butt naked 17, years old, hot wiring my truck middle of the night. Thankfully the cops didn't show up haha. I don't think I could have lived down the embarrassment haha.

Another time, went through a car windshield. Tore my leg open pretty bad. Blood everywhere. It was about a mile walk to get help. Cell phones weren't widely used as today. And this is only about 11-12 years ago. I didn't have a cell phone. Anyways, I thought I had severed my femoral artery, as the windshield had cut the sides and back of my leg up into my crotch area. By the time I made it to help, I had lost a LOT of blood, verge of passing out. Made it to the hospital, and there were no nurses at the triage (we drove in, no ambulance). So I grab a pencil, and the paper and before I could sit, they called me in. They were still mopping the floor when I left. I lost a LOT of blood, and I know I passed out a few times. What was scary was being a mile for so from help, bleeding profusely even with tourniquets on above my knee and at my hip. If not for my first aid kit I kept in my truck, I don't think I'd have been able to try and slow the bleeding. I worked with glass and cuts were a daily thing. I was still in my teens, but prepping has no age limit

There's more, but there isn't enough web space to post it all

Thanks for the thread. I always wondered where the "Like" button was and now I know. Now I just have to figure out the "Reply" and "Reply with Quote". I'm pretty much a lead pencil and paper guy.

I was convoying in southern Iraq last October. The vehicle behind me was hit with an RPG. As I was jumping out of my Humvee to assume my defensive fighting position, I was hit in the knee. Obviously, I made it out but have had two surgeries since and will have a partial knee implant to allow me a somewhat active life. That wasn't the scariest moment of my life though. I am going through a MEB because of it. Getting ready for life outside on the military is what scares me most.

Thank you for serving our country.
When you get out find the nearest chapter of DAV (Disabled American Veterans) and join. Those guys will make sure the VA doesn't try to screw you. Don't ever forget the VA motto: "Deny, Deny, Deny, Untill You Die."

I can't agree with rice paddy daddy more! The transition can be tough and there are organizations out there that can help.
