I stumbled on this while doing some research on bootcamp at Lackland... Getting Honor Grad is REALLY hard. In my flight (60 men) only 2 people got it (and no I wasn't one of them.. I wish..) So that's a double congratulations. Very cool… congratulations (if a bit late). I stumbled on this while doing some research on bootcamp at Lackland… Getting Honor Grad is REALLY hard.

My son left for BMT 2 weeks ago. There are no military people in our family so this is all new to us. He got to call Sunday (they had earned a phone call) and he said they were all still in the "What the heck have I done" mode. I know he will be so proud of himself when he is done. What an occomplishment! I cannot wait to see him and his transformation. Congrats again to you and yours. Angie Congratulations to your son and your family! My son left for BMT 2 weeks ago.

I actually left a company once we got it up and running to be SOX compliant in 2004. The overhead with paperwork and stupidity for the sake of compliance was more than I could take. Last time I checked, the business was there to make money and another Enron (the basis for SOX knee-jerking at Capitol Hill in 2002) won't be circumvented by IT having every single firewall change documented. It's ridiculous. Sorry, simply couldn't take SOX and chose to check out/step back to a small company that had no inkling to ever go the SEC route. If SOX extends to them, I'll become a farmer in some corner of Colorado and completely disconnect. I have no idea how you take the idiocy of SOX or PCI/DSS compliance. The peasants rule the kingdom in any organization that must comply with these (where the peasants are Internet Audit). Agreed regarding SOX.
