Definately an interesting area to study, I'm sure the next generation will find our current military history and policy interesting too.

G'night DTR.

Had to sign back in for a moment. http://money.cnn.com/2009/08/25/news...usch/index.htm If you don’t want to follow the link the main part of the article is “Beer drinkers beware: The cost of a cold one is going up. Anheuser-Busch plans to raise prices”. Also “The company said earlier this month that total beer volumes were down 1.5% in the second quarter versus the same period last year”. This is going to make madhat Very angry. Guess his best just wasn’t good enough, sigh,,,,,

Yeah, I'm still hanging out. Just been a little quiet. Between training rookies and the Hobo Patrol keeping a steady stream through the back door I don't get much time for more than logging in and catching up. Tonight is slowing down a bit though........

There's a word for that behavior, but I can't think of what it is right off the top of my head. Whooped... whapped... no, them ain't it. WHIPPED! Yeah, that's it. Whipped!
J/K Matt!

The following text shall be chanted to THIS song; http://www.badgerbadgerbadger.com/

Morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, morning, SHEEP!

That ought to get everyone's blood flowing!

Today is Wednesday, August 26th.

On this day in 1743 - Antoine Lavoisier was born. He was the chemist that proved that the union of oxygen and other chemicals is used in burning, rusting of metals and breathing.

1842 - The first fiscal year was established by the U.S. Congress to start on July 1st.

1873 - Dr. Lee DeForest was born. He was the inventor of the Audion tube. The tube makes the broadcasting of sound possible.

1920 - The 19th amendment to the U.S. Constitution went into effect. The amendment prohibited discrimination on the basis of sex in the voting booth.

1934 - Adolf Hitler demanded that France turn over their Saar region to Germany.

1937 - All Chinese shipping was blockaded by Japan.

1945 - The Japanese were given surrender instructions on the U.S. battleship Missouri at the end of World War II.

1957 - The first Edsel made by the Ford Motor Company rolled out.

1973 - A U.S. Presidential Proclamation was declared that made August 26th Women's Equality Day.

Carry on.

Well you broke the rule, its your fault. You know better than that. Never ever ever speak of it. Back when I was on duty if you even thought about it you'd get the bucket duty.



Good Day to All!

my work is done. I am in Buffalo tomorrow. gave MADHAT all my beer tokens...

Yes ma'am, we had the opportunity to meet up when he was here in the spring. For some reason or other I thought he would have a beard but he doesn't. I can see why the sheep are scared though.


Mornin DTR land. I was up all night just not drinking beer like some of the other individuals here (wish I was though). I sure feel like I did though.

Y'all have a good one, I gotta work today and tonight so I will shout at everyone tomorrow night.

I wish I didn't...

Mornin, DTR. Drank WAY too much last night. Had a buddy that I have not seen in a while come over, and we tied one on.

Had a little drama in the madhat household yesterday... some alarm salesman came up and unsettled the wife, he looked like he was poking around when she came to the door, said crap like, you're not really safe, retarded crap. So, I get home 5 minutes after she told him to beat it, and she's still a little upset, and tells me the story, along with our landlord (also the neighbor and one of my buddies) We jump in my truck and find this guy leaning up against a fence in the park. (it was actually the guy that was in charge of the little door to door deal, not that guy that talked to my OL. I was fine with that. Blood is blood)

Let me stop here and try to describe this scene to you. First, don't come in my yard and mess with my OL. I can take a salesman all day long, but when you say some retarded crap... I am pretty protective over my family... say what you want about me, but mess with the fam and someone's gonna bleed. Second, I stand at 6 foot, 205-ish, and I'm in pretty good shape. My neighbor/landlord is maybe an inch shorter than me, but weighs about 250, and he's in good shape, too. Not to mention cheep tatoos all over his arms and rough looking. Third... you could probably see the blood vessels in my eyes getting bigger. Now... I didn't come out of the truck and start yelling, I was calm and polite, but the possibility of this going bad fast was there. Ok, back to the story...

So, anyhow... I pull the truck off the road and jump out, get on one side of this guy,(calmly) and my neighbor (who is also a large dude) gets on the other side of him...(also very calm) we pretty much had him cornered. I start interrogatinghim (nice like, tho) as to what his problem was, and I'm ticked by this point. Maybe I had my fists balled up... maybe I was giving him the death look... I don't know. Oh, BTW, this dude is probably 5'9" and a buck fifty.... and he is looking a little nervous. He keeps darting his eyes back and forth between me and my landlord. I think I smell pee.

I was nice, tho. I swear. I politely informed him that I did not appreciate people talking to my wife like that, and that it was time for him to beat it. The landlord echoed the same, but a lot nicer than me. I swear I was nice.

The guy says some stuff, pretty compliant, then kind of laughs and says, "Man, it's not cool for you two big dudes to come jumping out of that truck like that." My land lord says, "Don't worry, dude. No one is going to get hurt."

The guy looks at me, and I say, "Yet."

He made tracks.


Good times for all. I really did not get loud or anything with this guy, don't think that I came out of the truck like a retard, but he knew I was not happy. I did say 'Sir' and 'Please', so I was polite.

We get back to the house, and my neighbor calls me a big mean old bully. I said, "What???? Me?"

Ok, back to work.
