It’s a struggle to stay occupied on the weekends when the rest of the time zone is sleeping. I have a few things that I would like to do but I need the freedom to make as much noise as I want and I really need the warming glow of the sun above me. [...] Well, after 130 some odd days my time in dodge is finally over and I am getting the heck out of here. I’ve got more time to kill before my plane gets here but I don’t have to sleep another night (or day in my case) in Iraq. The most baffling thing about my [...] I’ve been having a difficult time dealing with other people during my last few weeks here. My behavior to their actions remains the same but I have been unable to contain my frustration lately. Yesterday I drug a 6500 pound trailer 200 yards – by myself. I probably could have pulled it a half [...] To save you some of your valuable time I’ll paraphrase – I’m incredibly bored. The rest of this post will consist solely of me griping about it. Ok, get on your bike and go on your way. I rely on work to make me feel happy. When we have weather that keeps the planes [...] The current situation in Iraq has been under intense scrutiny and debate for some time. We find it ever more in the spotlight as the democrats and republicans use it against each other for political gain.

I haven’t [...] BlueCoat, the web filter ran by the USAF, has caused me much aggravation since my arrival at Balad.

Techically, I’m accessing [...] I woke yesterday and found not blue skies as I was used to but something much more sinister and disgusting. It was like the whole world was in a sepia filter and it had a strange color wash – we were in a brown world. The sky was being choked out by the dust [...] I made the changes to the code so now it should appear in a new light. I’ve got to download the latest and greatest version (with some more bug fixes) when I get a chance so it should only get better. Let me know what you think. Oh – got a few pictures of [...] John McCain is the guy leading the republican side of the race and Obama is in the lead on the other front. I’ve been watching McCain for years and I’ve gotta say that I like him more than any of the other candidates. He has been under fire from conservatives because he isn’t conservative [...] The did it in Abu Ghraib prison to people that didn’t deserve the treatment. I do it to myself on a daily basis. Why in the world would somebody beat the ever living crap out of their body? Why would someone push themselves until they were in so much pain that they thought they [...] |
