OK, THAT'S IT. I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS ATTITUDE TOWARD MY COUNTRY ANY LONGER - - WE WILL GET UP WHEN WE PLEASE. YOU WILL NOT INTIMIDATE US. WE ARE GOING TO RE-START THE URANIUM PLANT, BUILD THE BOMB AND ERADICATE YOUR CITY, YOU INFIDELS. (ooopppsss, I better shut up or I will have the feds monitoring our site and hear a little motor hovering over my house and snapping pics of me in the pool in my Speedo - - - )

Seriously, such noise is complete un-necessary. I was all ready up before you and I did not bother you. Chris, you have no sense of decency to bother us with all that stuff. You should find something constructive to do early in the morning like go out and wash your truck and then stick your tongue on it to test it (it is freezing up there, right???)

Another horrible day here - - 74 and the sun is just toooo bright - - have to go get my shades. Maybe go out and see if the snook are biting. Have fun.

Bob

Say now .... that sheep in the battle helmet looks kinda familiar. Thailand ?? Singapore ?? Bangkok ?? Phillipines ?? Weather Dry Creek, Arkansas ?? .

I always wondered why they sent us squids out in the middle of the ocean ... to keep from having to listen to the Bos'n pipe ... makes perfect sense now !!

Shortround ... I took a tour of a nuke sub once and it only took 10 minutes for the bulkheads to start closing in on me. I know the ones you rode were way smaller. You have my respect ... no way I could do a full patrol. If ya can't fire up the grills and have a "Steel Beach" picnic topside ... I don't want any part of it .


Cruddy day today ... found out that my "partner" who was supposed to keep things rolling for my office renovation put a halt on ordering my furniture. So now, a month later and I have nothing coming for my waiting room and it is close to completion. I tore into him and the Supply Officer and then vented to the XO (remember the Exorcist ?? yeah ... that's it). Should have the right stuff enroute by Friday and a couple new scalps to hang on my office wall for decoration.


Is it Friday yet ??? Enjoy your day everyone ... and tell the ones you love that you love them !!

Allright! Don't make me break out the pac-75 and show you guys a real revile.. and no, you aint breakin' rank to go shut your car alarms off to save your battery. The janitor will be takeing down the plates of those who left their alarms on before formation. You can put those girly little whistles away and stop that navy, mouth P.T. Oh.... I NEED... 1 volunteer...

Hehehehe .... "Mouth PT" That's good !!!! I can think of a few folks at work that spend a lot of time working that particular muscle group.

Pac 75 .... I won't tell you how old I was in 75. What cracks me up is that the ship routine hasn't changed since then. Well ... except for adding females on some ships (but we won't go into that ).

With a good bit of HighTec all this shouting around and marching, furnishing offices is going to be obsolete.

Enter the marvels of bioengineering in weapons systems- the Cruise Basselope!

Bloom County! Man, I miss that strip. Opus the Penguin was hilarious, with his weird obsession with Jeane Kirkpatrick and infomercials.

Morning kiddies. It's 0330 and starting to rain. Expect lots of thunder and lightning.
You will not be harrassed this morning by my yelling. I will be attending "consideration of others" and "sensitivity" training. The ACLU has determined that my methods infringe upon certain persons sleeping rights.

Yawn. OK, OK, what's with all the lights and noise????
If you guys north of me persist in waking me up so early I am going to retaliate and you will not like it. How would you like if I start by siccing 70 Mexican's on to each you - and none of these guys are virgins! Guess where they will deposit your penny whistle.
Hope I can get back to sleep. (need a large grumbling smiley here) And I ain't smiling!

MMMMMmmmm, good today. Thanks, Shovelhead (you didn't hide it very good - - hee hee). At least Chaikwa didn't find it and stir with that nasty brush he claims he lost - - I don't think so.

Another gorgeous day here - - now to find something spectacular to do out in all that sun and glory. Have a great one.

Pretty foggy up north. Just wet down here at the post, but there's no snow for the rain to mix with down here. Think I got the crud beet finally. Got a box of nutty dunkers to fill the void today... yeah, the janitor got sent to right down plates when the the cannon goes off, and is probably still waiting for formation, so I was able to get to the coffee pot. I'd have thought he'd figure it out by now though... gotta go hide now.

6:30pm and I finally have time to play on DTR.

Woke up this morning to partly cloudy skies, got the kids off to school,
came back home, slight breeze blowing,
downed a couple while checking email, went to get the next cup and it's a blizzard,
couldn't even see across the street, and there was already 2 inches of snow on the ground,
stopped snowing by the 4th and now it's all melted except the shady places.
Springtime in Utah, Greatest Snow on Earth.

3 1/2 hours for state inspection/tailpipe sniff at the Dealership this morning ,
and of course I had plenty of other stuff I'd rather be doing.
(15 minute quick inspection places don't sniff Diesel, Dealership is the only place I know of that does)

Got back from the Dealership and spent 2 hours running two new lines for new DirecTV HD Tivo I picked up a couple weeks ago, really hard to play with coax when it's 20 degrees outside,
gotta climb up on the roof and replace the dish tomorrow and wire up a multiswitch, if the weather cooperates,
no roof climbing for me if this morning repeats.
After I take Mom to Chemo at the buttcrack of dawn of course.

Kids are out of school, so I'll have them hold the ladder for Dear Ole Dad, and cushion me if I fall.

Dang I'm tired, sucks being old.

Friday AM @ 0630 and no squids in site.
That means no whistles, bells, gongs, hoisting, tricing,or any of that other silly Navy stuff.
Just sitting here quietly sipping a cup-o-coffee.

Lots to do, still running on zero ambition.
Temps in the 60s now, heading for the mid 70s by afternoon.
Might get one job completed.
Feeling a relapse of ****-Cataracts that might hit around lunchtime.

Y'all B safe,
