Today is April 25th 2010 I moved to West Chester PA about 2 months ago. I was studying for my SCJP examination for the past 3 months. Pretty much working 19hour days, 7 days a week. But I finished and passed the test on April 20th. So 5 days now I have gone from 19 hour days, down to 9 hour days. Today is Sunday, it is raining. I have opened a bottle of Champagne and am eating aged Gouda and watching 'No Direction Home" about Bob Dylan. I have one week left until I get my BASE gear, and have the opportunity to get my MOJO back.
Part Two - February “Shit!...SHIT! Right there! Right there! I see em!” Lance Corporal Felipe Rael was looking through the man pack thermal imager, which by 2009 no longer existed in the inventory and whose nomenclature had long since escaped me. He had seen a group of vehicles and human figures moving in the cold darkness of the Kuwaiti desert night. My blood turned to ice, and my stomach began to twist into knots. I couldn’t hide my fear – ever – and the guys made fun of me. Not because I freaked out or anything, but because when danger was eminent, I always got the shits. Just like that. I was powerless to prevent it. My Team Leader would always ...

"Yessir, the check is in the mail." then... Jack Burton: You know what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like this? Thunder: Who? Jack Burton: Jack Burton. *Me*! Jack Burton: ...
While I am on a roll....Yesterday, during a sunny 70 degree day, around 12:00pm (lunch time), I am driving home, then 40 mph through a GREEN fucking light.... and some lady, not even waving or anything, casually strolls through the intersection with her 6-9 year old daughter. Luckily, I am a very intelligent person that is paying attention to the world, as I still slammed on my brakes. could not have been more than 10 feet away from them both. i mean really, should we enforce a minimum IQ to have kids, and to tend to them? What an ignorant woman just carrying a child AGAINST the light! I am just appalled at the complete stupidity of many parents I see in society. Lets rag on the ...

Remembering times that past... I have not blogged her in a while. Well, it has been a long winter in Pittsburgh PA, and a roller coaster ride during this terrible economy. Even though, I must say, I am doing as well as ever. I have FedEx, Motorola, and JP Morgan Chase as clients, and I am completely booked with my time. More on that later. As I have been here, I have reflected on most everything in my life, as everything seems to be dramatic at this point. Then I started thinking....I am 38 now, an embarking upon another summer.
