Yep, once a marine always a marine, unless you were dishonorably discharged I believe. Need a marine to confirm or deny that last part but I think that's how it works.

Having seen some of the cook books from this time period "not bad" is actually a really good thing. Here's a few of its contemporaries: https://www.buzzfeed.com/ariannarebolini/truly-upsetting-vintage-recipes

Which is perfectly acceptable and a valid reason for not doing that. But if that isn't your reaction or it doesn't bother you then you may be willing or even enjoy working those types of hours despite the negatives. Some people do this while they can in preparation for the future. Some want to do this to get into a position where they don't need to keep up that level of work but still maintain the level of income. Some want to retire early enough so they can do still enjoy doing the things they love. It really depends on the person. As long as your not someone who complains that they don't get the same "perks" as someone who did put in all that work and effort, it's all good.

That's really old. I mean the quote you're using not the girl. Haven't seen that one for years. Surprised you could recall it.

You're talking about people who have the training and skill to bring to life a long dead person's face. Does this training and skill seems like the type that belong to a person familiar or adept at applying make-up or knowing what light to use to give the best appearance to a person? I'm not saying they don't, the picture does that, but it's extremely unlikely they even thought of applying better "light" or whatnot. It more likely went something like "Look what we did! This is amazing! Let's show everyone because this is so cool!"

Occasionally you have to be bad if you want the best items. Fable has a bow that you can only get by sacrificing a companion. It's the best bow in the game by a large margin. Luckily you can pay a bandit to be your companion. You still need to save/load a ton of times because the result is random to an extent.

That's what the quick save is for. Have the options presented. Do a quick save. Pick the bad option. See the results. Feel bad about it. Load and pick the good option.

Favorite movie? No. But it made it a movie worth watching at least once.
