Not really-but I do feel really tired. Plus-the current political cycle has me just plum tuckered out. I don’t think either side is winning anymore-its just the beginning of the long circular slide to utter stupidity. Obama gets voted out of office in 2012? It will be a complete jackass

Warning flags……
One of the harder lessons I learned in life was learning how to "hold fire". When I was much younger, I believed that the truth of ideas and a well thought out argument were sufficient unto itself. The problem is, the working world really does not work that way-especially in a

We got home yesterday-barely making the connection in Charlotte. The plane arrived late and we literally were the last ones on the plane. The S.O. was not amused. Flexibility does not come easy to her-especially when traveling. She does not suffer the serving class well. We boarded the plane and

More Pensacola pix: The Gulf beaches are white……… And the girls are out soaking up the sun: The S.O. wore her hat: And kids have a good time with their mothers.

Its been a busy week. I have been working against two deadlines-one at work and one for the course I am taking. Earned Value Metrics, ROI, ROS calculations, contract terminations. In other words, things that are total and complete bullshit. What I should have been studying- is a hands-on laboratory

I have seen the doctor….. And he has seen me. And for the moment at least-everything seems fine. Besides its always good to get that yearly reminder of why I really enjoy being heterosexual. He did remind me that my taste for beer is inching up my cholesterol numbers-not off

Looking for….Something. Have not had the time, energy or wherewithal to blog the last couple of days. Actually that’s not a 100% true-I could have blogged, but truth be told, I-JUST-DID-NOT-FEEL-LIKE-IT. Not sure why. Because there certainly was a heck of a lot of stupidity that deserved to be commented

Faith is, at one and the same time, absolutely necessary and altogether impossible.-Stanislaw Lem. I woke up early this morning and decided to go to the 7 AM Mass-the one I like to refer to as the “golfer’s mass”. ( Which isn’t really true-dedicated golfers either worship at our holy

I will never understand women. Not that understanding them has ever really been a goal-merely securing their daily cooperation will suffice for me. However, trying to understand how their twisted little minds work, is beyond any normal comprehension. Backing up. On Easter Sunday, the S.O. went to Mass with me.

Phil: I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster and drank pina coladas. At sunset we made love like sea otters. *That* was a pretty good day. Why couldn’t I get that day over and over and over…-From the movie Groundhog Day. Today I
