I hope every one had a great Christmas and that Santa brought each of you something you wanted. I got what I wanted mainly because I had to pick it out myself. Some of the spirit of the occasion came rushing out of my sails when the S.O. asked if

The reason for the season.
I did something very uncharacteristic last night. I left the S.O. to go to bed, while I went to Midnight Mass. That’s remarkable for me because: a) I’m not Catholic and b) the last time I was in this church was for a memorial service some 10 months ago. Amazingly,

Merry Christmas everyone! It’s Christmas eve here, evening time to be exact. In true procrastinators form, I did the last of my Christmas shopping today, 24 December, probably paying more than I should have for the S.O.’s big gift ( A Yamashita 9.75mm pearl pendant…..).

Can anyone tell me what is going on with the American Stock Market? Every time I turn on my computer lately, the market has dropped by another 50-100 points. Wasn’t the Dow supposed be over 11,000 by now? It matters because one of the biggest joys that the S.O. has

This week has been amazing. Very , very busy and also frustrating trying to convince idiots who should know better to do what they should have been doing all along. Today thankfully is the last day and then tonight I can get on a plane to Hong Kong and have

Don’t feel like saying much today. Work is busy and at the same time its pointless. As an old mentor of mine once said, the script never changes in the Navy, just the actors do. Have been going through a lot of issues at work, where the powers that be
