The Results Are In

I know that many of you realized that if the Israeli army refused to accept me I would be forced to change the name of my blog as I clearly would not be in the army. Fortunately, the Israeli army (which I know for a fact monitors this site) has no intentions of letting a perfectly good blog name go to waste. For that reason, among others, I was accepted as a volunteer into the Israeli army today by a medical committee. The "committee" consisted of a single doctor who gave me a personal interview. He didn't pull any punches though, and asked the tough questions like: "What do you like to do for fun?" and "Do you play any sports?" All and all the whole process was pretty anticlimactic. At the hearing I was also given permission to attend a scaled down version of basic training. This is of particular note because I was under the impression that even this more basic basic training would not be available to me. Oh yeah, and it means I get a gun. Don't mess with me.
