        (you're alive!!) -- nm - amanda claire jones Aug 27, 21:39 4

- Is that a random assignment or do they volunteer for that unit/duty ? -- nm - MojaveMeg Aug 27, 20:26 2
  - Well, as far as I know, they must be selected to be in the 3rd infantry (which is ceremonial). They must be a certain height, physique, and look. -- nm - loosilu Aug 27, 21:14
  - I believe that they volunteer, or else "request" for Tomb of the Unknown .. but they go thru a very strict program to prepare for it ,,, - i'm not dead yet ! Aug 27, 21:12

  - how much ransom would the kid's parents pay? -- nm - moles Aug 27, 19:23
- fatten him up for the xmas roast -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 27, 18:15 20

        Yeah... up until now we generally only locked the doors at night and not always then. -- nm - Dano Aug 27, 18:43 9
        
        Though it's weird that the reason we'll start locking the doors is because of a five-year-old. -- nm - Dano Aug 27, 18:46 8
        
        is it really so bad if he comes over? -- nm - loosilu Aug 27, 19:28 4
        
        A five year old kid climbing out of his window and walking into a stranger's house is just not a good thing. - Dano Aug 27, 20:20 3
        
        I am a little shocked that CPS was not contacted. -- nm - The Ruiner Aug 27, 21:33

        I would rather see him at Chuck E Cheese -- nm - Bacon Aug 27, 20:26

        He exposed the fatal flaw in our security system. - Dano Aug 27, 18:48 1
        
        he's the Red Team! -- nm - loosilu Aug 27, 19:28
        
        (although that may have been less about keeping others out and encouraging me to leave) -- nm - moles Aug 27, 18:42
- finders keepers -- nm - moles Aug 27, 18:11
since mandy made me think of it, lyc, this is the curtains i put up in the living room -- (link) - tRuMaN Aug 27, 18:08
