So I'm watching Woody Allen's "Everything you wanted to know about sex* (but were afraid to ask)" and my wife starts laughing....more than normal. Apparently Doctor Doug Ross, the character played by Gene Wilder, who falls in love/lust with a sheep from the hills of Armenia, is the exact same name used by George Clooney's character on ER. Being straight, I of course wouldn't know. (said the man who knits.....) Just coincidence??? Hmmmmm................ Oh yes, Regis also makes a cameo i...

Okay, I'm not that clever, I stole it from a cartoon I saw at the bookstore. I'm home on leave for a couple of weeks, so I'm kinda sorta blogging again. So I can get it all out of the way at once, Iraq. You wanna know what it's like? Go outside (you'll need a friend.) Find an overfilled portajohn and stand next to it. Get your friend to put a blowdrier in your face on high. Have him throw sand in your face occasionally. Periodically pick up 80 lb weights and put them down after a whi...

Write no more, I'm off to war!!! I ain't gone yet, but it's close enough I'm stopping now to keep the timeline fuzzy for opsec type reasons. Ain't saying where or when I'm goin' or what I'm doin', but it oughta be fun! Plus, I'll finally be ought of the #$%%@!!! rain! Woot. Maybe I'll get the chance to check in once in awhile, but in the meantime, don't expect anything for at least seven or eight months. Maybe not for the full tour. I can't break opsec there, 'cause nobody knows how lon...

O Media, which me protects, Tell me what to be scared of next. A dozen people killed by SARS, West Nile Virus, faulty cars, with airbag lights that catch on fire, or ride upon a firestone tire. Bovine hormones give you breasts, or positives on gaydar tests, and nationwide postal anthrax too, (how many died, did I? did you?) O Media, which me protects, Tell me what to be scared of next. Make me frightened with filmstock grainy, E coli lettuce and "richard" cheney, I heard he...

It's life, Jim But not as we know it. Tantalizing green women, Night after night. (mr. sulu, take the helm) If I give 'er any more she'll blow, indeed. No, I can't diagnose that sore on the end of your.......well, after all, Dammit, I'm a television actor, not a doctor, Jim. You boldly went where no man did before, on a five year mission. Seeking out new life........and lonely, single civilizations. Set phasers to kill, indeed. Don't look now, "kling-ons" on your.........

Alright, sports fans. So you've had a rough day of protesting the Iraq war by blocking Seattle rush-hour traffic. (thanks a lot by the way.........damn it.) No? You're the biggest pro-Bush fan since his Scottie dogs? America is divided politcally over the war in Iraq. Everybody's got an opinion about it. I'm sure you're forming your opinion based on sound judgement stemming from long hours of research and well informed decision making. Maybe not. I was reminded tonight of a Daily Show ...

Washington - March 6, 2007 In a surprise move by acting Secretary of the Army Peter Green, the Department of the Army has decided on the ninth major change to the Kevlar body armor in the past three years. Although unorthodox, the doctors at Walter Reed have announced a new surgical technique that will allow soldiers to be tattooed, head to foot with liquid Kevlar. Critics of the program call it ludicrous, insane, and immoral. Others wonder why the Army hasn't thought of it sooner. Says...

As promised, here's some pictures. Except I haven't figured out how my wife got around the evil, all invasive "Easy Share" (Ha!!!) software for our digital camera, so I can't post any pictures of my trebuchet yet. Enjoy. The beautiful, warm, inviting housing in which I live on Ft. Lewis... Me, trying on the hat I knit for dharma a couple of months back. I took it a little bit further before I sent it. Really........ My wife's face. EXTREME CLOSEUP!!!!!!! My demonic ...
