I was originally going to post something useless profound about the world situation or some other such subject, but after the ebb and flow of yesterday I said, “Screw it. That can wait for another day”. Yesterday was too nice to mess it up with the world’s misery. Yesterday was a really good day. The… Continue reading A lazy day……….and then some….

Olympic update
An Olympic update. I’ve seen very little of the Olympics due to the hectic work schedule last week. Plus I get caught in the double bind of being forced by the S.O. to watch the coverage in Japanese. Where they will focus on the 8th place finish of a Japanese figure skating instead of a… Continue reading Olympic update
Funny stuff to do…with beer and babes!
My previous post took me to one of those web sites that proves that idle hands are the devil’s workshop. While the Phibian may have been focused on pertinant political commentary, I decided to dig deeper……..And find the naked women! They are there, just takes a few mouse clicks to get there. Or here to… Continue reading Funny stuff to do…with beer and babes!

Sharks in these waters……..
Butt sharks that is. Very busy this week with meetings from the muckety mucks from our higher headquarters. Have been quietly enjoying the adventures in trouser snorkeling from the military folks who still want to get ahead. Its days like today that I really can enjoy my transition to that status of being just another… Continue reading Sharks in these waters……..
Muslims and more on cartoons
I went to see the movie Syrianna tonight. I know it got slammed by many critics, but I liked it. Both for the way it presented its message and for the message it presented. It was also good to see a Deep Space Nine actor finally get some real work………….. Plus there are some great… Continue reading Muslims and more on cartoons
