How many of you guys are boy scouts. You how you might think that boy scouts are the people who walk the old granny acrossed the street, well thinK again! To me I define the boy scouts as a roudy bunch of street gangs! I'm a boy scout and proud to be! How many of you are loud and proud to be boy scouts?

I used to do Boy Scouts before High School. I really enjoyed it, but I only made it to first class. Then sports kind of got in the way. Also a lot of kids who were in my troop started doing drugs and stuff. It was like our camping trips were excuses for them to go into the woods and smoke weed. What a bunch of tools. But needless to say, they made my desision to focus on sports a little easier.^^

Very loud, very proud. BSA!
Final Rank: Eagle Scout
Current Job: soon to be ASM (when I find a troop)
Trivia: Every one of my uncles on my dads side, and my dad were Eagles. My cousin is an eagle and we hope that my other two young guy cousins will reach the rank as well... but that wont be for a while.

Both of my parents were involved in Scouting/Guiding as leaders. And of course me and my siblings were enrolled as well. My oldest brother was more active than I was; he even managed to get the Duke of Edinburgh award (and also a Knight of Tamara). I liked some of it, but was not as enthusiastic. I did well enough of course.

Go for it!
2 Questions...
What merit badges do you have left to do?
Have you started to look for a project?

I was a Boy Scout from the time I was 17 til I turned 18. Never bothered with merit badges, since I would only be there a year.
