A reader e-mailed me and tipped me off to the fact that Donald Rumsfeld had a chance to be a hero to victimized affected servicemen and women, but avoided the issue entirely. Evidently during his Town Hall meeting in Korea, a question was asked about the Former Spouse protection act and why DOD still refuses… Continue reading More avoiding the truth about the USFSPA

Your mileage may vary…….
Today is June 23, the 42nd anniversary of the day I made the biggest mistake of my life, getting married only 6 weeks out of college. The intervening years have amplified how big a mistake that was and how much better it would have been if I had spent my 20’s (or longer) in hedonistic… Continue reading Your mileage may vary…….
Potpourri
Well, I must be getting over my jet lag because I find myself able to marshall rage at obvious stupidity again. And judging by the news today there is plenty of it. The difference between now and yesteryear though is that I find myself wishing to drive the point home more forcefully: I’ve got more… Continue reading Potpourri
When it rains-it pours.
I’m going to war with the State of Alabama. Got home after work today-and in my mail was this: ” Payments under the USFSPA are not considered alimony. Accordingly, your claim for alimony payments has been disallowed. You owe us money!” No f*cking shit, Sherlock. However did you read the rest of the 15 pages… Continue reading When it rains-it pours.

Quick debate post-and a comment….
And I’m back. The last couple of days have been a blur. Slept most of Wednesday. The nurse told me that she was starting the anesthetic, asked me to roll over-next thing I knew I was in the recovery room and the S.O. was trying to talk to me. That’s scary. Then yesterday, our shipment… Continue reading Quick debate post-and a comment….
Under the weather……….
No post yesterday-I spent most of the day horizontal and having some very wierd dreams. The S.O. was kind enough to give me her cold and I felt like dog squeeze yesterday- all day. When I am sick and I sleep-I have the same dream over and over again. Regrettably Norika is never in it,… Continue reading Under the weather……….
100,000 whores………..
Contrary to what some readers may think, that is not my personal life goal. No post yesterday-I’ve been in an out of sorts mood and have been trying to shake off the crud that Korea always seems to inflict upon me. Decided to wine and dine the S.O. last night, stay away from computer, and… Continue reading 100,000 whores………..
Quantas strikes again!
Well, I’m back. I had to change my flight info and depart a couple of days early. Getting that done was like pulling teeth. Had to drive out to the airport and like their American counterparts looked at my ticket like it was tainted. So it took me almost 24 hours to get back to… Continue reading Quantas strikes again!
