I ended up going to see a recruiter a few days later and scored 97 on my ASVAB. I believe that started a positive course in my life.
I do not understand why people refuse to allow television to do the same thing for someone else that it did for me. What if that had been a UPC commercial? Maybe I would be a big evangelist by now?
