DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been here for the last 5 weeks. Averages 110 deg. Sucks. I'm going to assume that you are going to be relocating here because of a job on base. Cuz that's all that there is here. Anyways have fun at Tommy Ts. lol

No base job, but a job supporting services that are probably on-base as well in the area.

Great company and great future, that is the only reason I would consider it.

Yeah, the weather appears to be a bitch.

What is Tommy T's? Bar/club?

LOL! I still love women, and since I lost weight, I am probably no longer a steer.

Maybe queer as in "odd". lol

I agree, but wouldn't I commute to that town either. If the incentive was good, it isn't that bad.
