    Just a little support for cave divers, especially at JB...over the years i have noticed the catheters in the trash and the buzzards seem to hit those areas when no one is there...we put them in the trash and the "real" animals remove them and sling them whereever....maybe there is a need for some buzzard proof containers.

    There are two kinds of people - people who make messes and create problems, and people who clean up messes and solve problems. Your reward is that you get to be a member of the second group!

    There is a third group. I pick up after myself, but I'll be damned if I will pick up after someone else. My vehicle may look like a trash bin, but it not for anyone else to pick up after me.

    Dude, get over yourself. It's just trash. Use another piece of trash, a discarded bag, pick it up between 2 rocks, whatever it takes to not pick it up with bare fingers . . . and clean it up! Then you can report yourself on her as an agent of good instead of a minor coward.

    It's amazing what men refuse to touch yet what they expect women to do (and like)!


    Land of Enchantment -- not so great for cave diving, but mighty scenic!

    Good point, Bill. So we need to get someone to paint a "No buzzards allowed" sign amd display it in a prominent spot.

    When I first opened this thread I was expecting it to be about buzzard poop all over everything.

    It's no that it is to much for or that I think I am above it. It's the principal. Why should I pick up others trash. As for me being a coward?? Not sure if myself or any of the other marines I have served with would refer to me as a coward. But I am at jb every weekend I am back mount and drive a black gmc Yukon my name is Adam. I would love to talk to. You in person about me being a coward.

    Principal of what? Picking up trash that was possible strewn about by the wind or animals? Or what about "it's not my problem and I'll just let my "principles" get in the way of doing my part to keep a site open to cave divers. I guess as a Marine you've never had to pick up anothers trash. I guess doing that is probably beneath you or is somehow degrading to you. You probably have no problem having the junior Marines pick up trash that isn't theirs do you. Apparently you're not used to being challenged either, as soon as WJH did, you immediatly jump to wanting to fix it with violence. Way to be the bigger person. Way to portray being a "Marine" in a positive light.
