It took me 30 minutes to get to work today. I’m all in favor of caution during bad weather, but I really think that the SUV in front of my little Kia Rio could’ve managed a full 30 miles an hour. I finally got upgraded to DSL last night; turns out the previous owners of …

I have completed a profile at http://www.shelfari.com/ to replace my “reading list.” I seem to be having difficulty setting up the widget on my blog, here, but hopefully I’ll get it done soon.

Next month I will have my first drill for Phase 0, and I should graduate next August.College also starts next month, so I will be attending traditional National Guard OCS, part-time college, full-time work, and my martial arts training.

From Neo-Neocon’s Blog
My apologies for the length of the post; I am combining several short replies to items that came in while I was away. This is what I’m getting at – this is either meant seriously, which indicates a really messed-up view of people who disagree with you politically, or its a really bad joke that…well, …

End of November
Well, it’s month’s end again, and drill is this weekend. No specific progress has been made on any front (I’ve gotten the paperwork on my land; I’ve also requested a review of the FMV for it), but everything IS moving forward.
