Good Morning guys.....who made the coffee this morning? the pots fresh, but there aint no "bite" to it. Chaikwa, better find an ol' Bosun's Mate to show ya how to make GOOD "morning" coffee...
Not much been happening around here buut the rain.. 9 inches in teh last 11 days. Everythigns pretty much soaked to the core. Washed out my arena and flooded the barn. The horses in for training get to sit awhile until I can get it dryed out and repaired. Nice timing on teh rain, too late to help the corn crop, too much to let them get an early start on prep'ing the fields for the winter wheat planting...glad I aint a farmer, they got it ruff this year.....
Well, better pretend to be doin' somthing constructive........
Yall have a good 'un, keep the coffee hot and STRONG...

We are in Petosky, Mich and heading a little more south tomorrow. The weather has finally cooperated a little bit better, but now a stupid hurricane is coming up from the other way. Hope it still can't find my house. Pretty country, but the state parks are so far overpriced it is rediculous. It is cheaper to go into a high priced private park. Oh well, can't take it with me. In fact, I think they don't want me to take it out of the state.
Take care, see when I find INET again. In the meantime, don't be too hard on the janitor. I want him in a good mood when I get down his way.

I was just up there not too long a go. Should have some good beach weather finally. Guvna raised the prices on everything last year.
I'm off tomorrow Thurs and Friday, any plans at all? Thinking about hitting The Betsy River near Frankfort, somewhere during that time. Salmon are comeing in heavy I've heard.

It's almost 6AM and this place looks like a ghost town!
There's still donuts left over from yesterday. Not too crunchy yet either, so eat 'em up. I ain't buyin' more 'til these are gone. I'm glad I don't spend the money to get the fresh ones.
Oh, and don't blame me if the coffee tastes 'funny'... someone tried cleaning the pot yesterday and whatever they did took all the 'seasoning' out of it. It takes weeks to properly build up that layer of flavor, now it's all gone and I gotta start over again.
Awright, first pot of
's done.chaikwa.
Donuts?
I got up at OMGit'stooearly o-clock and made snausage-n-egg sammiches with a side of fresh hot (non-foo-foo) coffee.
Yummmmmmy!!!!!!!
RAIN?........We have RAIN FALLING?..........
First REAL rain I've seen in about two months.
My grass is the same color as my sidewalk.
On the 4th day of a project that a SFS Flight Chief said would take four hours to complete.
That's why HE wears a badge, and I wear a toolbelt.
I told him I'd make a deal with him.
HE won't tell me how to do my job, and I won't shoot intruders coming over the perimeter wall.
Y'all B safe

I got to tell you a story about that. I was assigned to the division office on my ship. As the newbie I had to make coffee. At the time I didn't drink it so when I saw the old metal coffee maker I took some Comet and scrubed that baby till it shined!
Oh man was the brass POed! Coffee tasted nasty for a week, and boy did I hear about it!

What is this Holiday routine? It's Thursday and there is work to be done. No coffee, no donuts, no snausages, and certainly no employees!
Looks like I have to do all the work by myself.....again.

ALRIGHT EVERYBODY .... LISSEN UP !! LIBERTY CALL WILL NOT GO DOWN UNTIL MORALE IN THIS JOINT IMPROVES !!!!
All this coffee pot scrubbin has me dippin into my private stash and brewin it myself ... if'n I wanted to drink water, I'd go to the sink. DADGUMIT ... IF IT DON'T STAIN THE CUP ... IT AIN'T COFFEE !!!
Speakin of coffee ... he's a little tidbit of information for you non-squid types ...
Origins of Navy Terminology: Cup of Joe - Josephus Daniels (18 May 1862-15 January 1948) was appointed Secretary of the Navy by President Woodrow Wilson in 1913. Among his reforms of the Navy were inaugurating the practice of making 100 Sailors from the Fleet eligible for entrance into the Naval Academy, the introduction of women into the service, and the abolishment of the officers' wine mess. From that time on, the strongest drink aboard Navy ships could only be coffee and over the years, a cup of coffee became known as "a cup of Joe".
LONG LIVE THE SCUTTLEBUTT !!!
