Ho, Ho, Ho!

Happy Holidays To All!

 

OOP! ACK!
Another month has passed.
(almost)

Same old stuff this past month. Job search. Did a few side jobs for cash. Cash is good.

Going to the Nighthawks game Thursday.

Boring, huh?

Catch-22?

Trying to replace one of those teey-tiny screws in my eyeglasses when I need the eyeglasses to see things that teeny-tiny.

Tanj!

Call a rose a rose.

Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist."

I truly HATE politically correct crap!

August Weekend

There are times the world is wonderful.
Answering a gig on craigslist I met a cool guy and did some work setting up his home library.
Turns out he's veteran. Former Navy guy. Swimmer.
Cool weekend.

New Ventures

Wish me luck and stay tuned.
I'm on the hunt for a new venture.
Yeah, you can read that as a new job. 

This would be an interesting one.

Wow

The longest word in standard English dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis at 45 letters long. 

Weather

Well, I'm jumpin' on the bandwagon. Our weather in Omaha has been below the norm for the whole month so far. We're just having weather. We don't affect it. Much. Mother Nature is too big for that.  








Read something other than the mass media propaganda.

Temeraire Novels

Finished the Temeraire novels by Naomi Novik. Recommended by a my buddy Mark. Mighty fine reads. Take the Napoleonic Wars, a British naval officer, add dragons, and stir. Wonderful!


Throne of Jade (#4)


Victory of Eagles (#5)















I bet there are more to come.

April

Oop! Ack!

Haven't written anything here in way too long.

Hmm, still haven't.

Readin' Sidewinders by William W. Johnstone.  
Time for a western.
Really enjoying it. Quite different from my usual fare.
Seems to more in a series. I'll look for 'em.

snow up to my chin
chilled since then
when will spring begin

Getting Older

My Mom sent this to me. Hmmm.

Some people try to turn back their odometers.
Not me!
I want people to know 'why' I look this way.

I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

Army trivia?

If the generals and congress get rid of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" what will they call the map cases used in the Army?

Think about it.

LMAO,
Greg

The End is Here

Sadness.
The bookstore is closed. 
11 years, it was a good ride.
Time to move on.

The End is Near

My bookstore closes on the 26th.
Bummer.

Technokarma

Definition: How you and technology get along.

Lack of:
The state of being where anything I touch more advanced than a rock doesn't work.
Example: Windows has just given me a Blue Screen of Death, my cell phone battery is dead, the car won't start, the coffee maker won't heat, and I can't remember my PINs.

On the same day.

Don't ask.

Below Zero Today

And Gryphon knows it.
