I almost vomited in my mouth a little.....then you saved yourself. :o

And another one right here :D Military dude that is.

Even though I am a lowly civilian now working at a military base.

Great drinking buddies :D

You servicemen...errrr....servicepersons are everywhere! Thank goodness. :)

I agree. But if they wear broccoli rows - YUCCHH!

BTW - I think you mean you couldn't care less.

I am an American. My grandparents mirated from Russia and Poland.

I, too am out 0f Africa.

Examination of our genetic material has indicated that we ALL migrated out of Africa. It just a matter of when. Homo sapiens originated in Africa.

Just to drop a little science into the discussion.

There was a guy in a prior assn that had a ponytail, wore glasses, and was overweight. His hair was black & gray, so it really accented the ponytail. He could never understand why he did not move up the ranks.

For the situation at hand, this was a bogus situation. Unless the officiating was extremely poor, the assignment should have been kept all the way through. If no future assignments were given, so be it. It was a terrible way to handle it.

I guess the best way to look at things is to observe those who have top assignments in your association. And if you do not have to work for this particular assigner in the future, then avoid that area.

Well thanks, how informative. Here's another bit: white skin seems to have resulted from a mutation.

Many of us are mutants. :eek:

One more so than others.;)

This guy? BTW - he's a rec coach around here. :eek:

Your Momma's A Mutant !!!
 

Wouldn't this be a "good" mutation for those homo sapiens who moved away from equatorial regions toward the polar regions, where the sunlight was weaker (angle, and seasonal day length), thus allowing the more translucent skin to absorb more blue, violet, and ultraviolet light, thus allowing the body to manufacture more Vitamin D than if their skin had been darker?

Hey, you can rationalize it however you wish... :D

You guys are hounds off the scent. Think 'username'.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I was really frustrated and you guys helped alot. A few questions popped up during the thread that I will answer.
@ Padgett=It was the tournament director that complained to the assignor. The assignor then contacted us after the 4 game set and told us what was going on. The assignor stated he is at the mercy of the director since that was how he was getting paid...

@Bad News=funny you mentioned tattoos on the forearm because I have my name in old elglish letters. When assignors ask what it is I say Its my name and I got the tattoo when I was 16 so I could remember how to spell it! I always get a laugh out of that but it hasnt been a issue.

I do understand what image means upon a first impression. Thats why I work twice as hard on the floor

You might check with the assignor about other tournaments with other directors. He might feel he owes you one.
