I have and will continue to take care of myself.

Golfingnut: Bravo! Iserved four years in the military and remained at the same Naval Base the entire time. Because of that fact I never felt entitled to VA benefits feeling instead they belonged to the guys that fought on the front lines.
As for the freebies at TGIF, etc you get what you paid for
