Wow, that's quite something.

You'll be fine. Just take it one step at a time and remember you're awesome.

Did you manage to not laugh when you said it?
It strikes me as one of those really inappropriate time to get the giggles...

[thejoefish]

I did manage to keep a straight face yes, although if someone had said that to me before I did it I doubt I would have done so well...

[sassydelinquent]

Probably a good thing you didn't talk to me beforehand, then. :P

[thejoefish]

They've got a different wording.

I, yadda yadda, do solemnly, sincerely and truly declare and affirm that I, so on and so forth, etcetera etcetera.

That's like Jury service - I had to say a different oath, which was longer with more tricky words, darn it. Obviously atheists are more intelligent and can handle such things :P

Well done, Joe. I knew you'd succeed in this - there's something about your determination in this that sounds genuine.

I look forward to your logs on basic training. :P
