Still probably worth it, just for the 20 minutes:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2016282/Charity-worker-paid-5-000-Jamaican-brides-visa-left-heartbroken-flees-UK-home-20-MINUTES.html

A charity worker who spent £5,000 bringing his new Jamaican bride to the UK was left heartbroken after she abandoned him within 20 minutes of walking through his front door.

Johnny Gannon spent thousands arranging a visa for 24-year-old Patrice Chambers so they could live in marital bliss in his council flat in Perth, Scotland.

But as soon as Patrice arrived in Perth, she sent trusting Mr Gannon, 57, out to buy Pot Noodles. When he returned she grabbed her bags and told him she was going.

and fooled the poor man to get the visa. There are too many suckers out there and too many greedy opportunists.

always will be, just my nature. At least I know it. When I was working, the married women folk would tell me NOPE not way are you going out with her. And this to a 60 year old. No respect I tell you, No respect at all.

Giving up legs, not problem, just get a wheel chair but a bug motor and power.
Hands, (mine getting bad) probably robotics. we can generally figure crap out and have someone build something.

I had to had a nurse give me sponge baths the I was in the hospital and really enjoyed that.
Walking with a catheter and 5 IV lines and such, just a hell of a challenge and improved my balance.

But now the diapers thing for most of us, that is probably the clincher.

I call myself a civilian. I'm no longer in the military, no longer wear the uniform. Most cops are also civilians.
