Ah, seeet. It's just in time for Valentines's Day, wouldn't you know, and since "In the spring a young man's fancies Lightly turn to thoughts of love." I guess a coding system of sorts for marriage makes about as much sense as anything else they're doing. They... care. They... have hearts, too.

I'm surprised they haven't outsourced relationship counseling to a subsidiary of Halliburton.

Don't give them ideas, Jeff....

If the Corps had wanted me to have a wife, they'd have issued me an old green wrinkled one.

Like the Old Gunny says, "At home, my wife is my right hand. In the field, my right hand is my wife."

That's all well and good for the Corps. But how about the rest of us? Some of us prefer females.

Have you got something against marrying Gordon?
