Far East Cynic

First, a funny post………..

I’m in a very down mood tonight. I’ve been down all day….one could almost say I’m depressed, but I don’t get depressed. I just get angry, horny then drunk. That way I pass out before depression………… Lots of reasons for this, mostly war, politics, and work related. However there are

Taking one for the team, part II-dodging the bullet……..

Back in February, I posted about Princess Kiko. Kiko-sama had patriotically become pregnant and so gave the royal family one more chance to get a male heir to the throne. Today she helped a whole host of people in the Imperial household breathe easier……she gave birth to a boy. Bottom

There is a story there……..

That’s what I used to say when I saw something that did not look quite right. Like when you see a totally gorgeous girl with an overweight older man. True love? Probably not. Currency exchange? Maybe. There is a story there. Yesterday went and had lunch at one of my

My brain is full………..

Lazy man’s post!

I got back early this evening. So after an hour of watching TV , I said, “screw it!” So I snuck out to my favorite little watering hole, to sit at the bar and admire the bartender and her strapless bra…..(beneath a revealing top). Now I’m back and off to

So why am I here?

According to the Donald: “U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld says he does not see North Korea as an immediate military threat to South Korea.” For the hours I am putting in I could be out playing golf if this is true. Subscribe in a reader

The surrender declaration…..

As I pointed out yesterday the Navy is making a huge push for diversity. Friend of mine showed me a brief the guys in the surface Navy put together. Its one of those “health of the community briefs” that talks about where the community is going. By the looks of
