Day 99. 1. Began massive distraction from the needs of facing reality today, by beginning an online game, Kingdom of Loathing. Stick figure characters, no rules given, just jump right in. Link 2. Very weird, but funny. Oh yeah, and the currency seems to be meat. 3. Someday I will facedown the Naughty Sorceress. (probably about when I figure out all the rules.) An adventurer is me!

Day 102. 1. Watched Kingdom of Heaven. 2. Considered enlisting in the Crusades to retake Jerusalem under King Richard after ETSing from the army. Was disappointed to discover that Orlando Bloom would not be participating, and that the Crusade in question, had in fact been over for the last 800 years or so. Additionally, this may cause a conflict of intrest during my IRR time, and I would have to work for the French. C'est dommage. 3. Filed a resume for a position as a leper instead. ...

As day follows night, and as my cat follows me when I'm cooking fish, here follows the antithesis, the diametrical opposite to my I declare this Eeeevil article. Link Instead, here's a list of things I think are not just good, but make my life better in a significant way........... 1. Dr. Pepper 2. A heavy, hard-core reading habit, all inclusive, but especially heavy on the scifi fantasy stuff. 3. Mustangs 4. All muscle cars (except for the last few years of the Nova, when it started l...

Wallah! My new series of articles as I prepare to exit the army. Some will remember the League, and the zombie deer articles, and won't be terribly surprised. Day 104. 1. Asked for the return of my on post driving privileges. 2. Studied Charles Whitman online as preperatory research, just in case of further stoploss. Link 3. Sold my soul to rock and roll as my sergeant-major assures us we'll be desperate for money upon leaving the Army. To continue on day 103...........
