Talking Graduated!

Just received my Bachelor's today! And I just wanted to thank all the people here at PS... Even though I don't post very often I've learned a whole lot from you guys and many of your words have had a positive impact on my mind and my direction in life.

Next step is 18X. No excuses, no failure. Again thank you all.

Congratulations on your degree! The SF men here always say, focus on the 25m target...?

Am sure you will, and good luck!

Holly,

Focus on the 25m target? I'd tell you what it means, but of course if I did you know what I'd have to do. Congrats young man, now get that Beret...
