Equal Opportunity Draft
by matt at 6:30 am on May 5th, 2004 in Bush Man Date
I have to stop saying “no homo” for the next few years.
From the Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
“In line with today’s needs, the Selective Service System’s structure, programs and activities should be re-engineered toward maintaining a national inventory of American men and, for the first time, women, ages 18 through 34, with an added focus on identifying individuals with critical skills…”
Inventory? The staffer who chose that word should be looking for a job in retail right now. Jesus Christ.
But there’s more: In a time of tightening budgets, the Selective Service System was given an 8% increase in the FY2005 budget. I don’t imagine that it’s for cushy new offices.
Since the odds of me serving in a military under the current Commander-in-Chief are nonexistent, I either have to make “Don’t Ask / Don’t Tell” work for me, or start doing massive amounts of drugs again.

If they changed the rules, I would have to switch teams. Then it would work for me. But I thought that was clear.

i’m actually interested in this switching teams to dodge the invetory scheme. . .seems to me your age is working in your favor at the moment. just because you live in SF is no reason to take drastic measures.

You should be doing drugs anyway. The key is to not wash your ass for a week or so before you have to report for duty.
