I myself wanted one of those remote controlled air planes. I thought that's the coolest thing ever. Once I grew up and had the money, I never bought it.

Man I'm a gun nut in my heart but there is no way I can buy an actual gun since I have mental illnesses. I couldn't get into armed security because of that despite my doctor writing that I'm "stable".

I tried to join the US Navy prior to the GWOT, and was denied because I was on Prozac at the time. If I'd tried to join after 11 Sept., there would have been no problem at all.
