Wonder Woman 1984 was a fun movie. No, I’ll say it was a very good movie. I was worried because many sequels simply cannot fulfill on their promises. The exception being Aliens or Terminator 2. And yes. I am miffed at the lousy work with military uniforms also lack of bearing and all things tactical. […]
Read More Wonder Woman 1984A year ago, in August, I was out enjoying some Oregon outside. I was soon to deploy to Somalia and I wanted to soak up some Pacific Northwest. I’d been hiking a lot and on this particular night I had a spotting scope and an adapter for my iPhone and was attempting to take a […]
Read More Taking pictures of Nighthawks before/after deploymentSpring of 2019 I went to a TAG match with some soldiers from my company. It is a three day event where soldiers compete in shooting. When I got there and met a friend of mine who was running it, I found out that he was a bit short of staff in running it. I […]

I was responding to an email from my Sweetheart about the move, stating that I’ve been pondering a move to a couple of different locations for a while now.

Read More Learning to fightYour time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.

Read More Dogooder is born (or what am I going to do when I return home?)I’ve hovered at 195 for months. Eating army chow hall food isn’t conducive to health. Even trying half-assed (eating only 1 corndog) does nothing. The chow hall, like all chow halls, is generally lacking in vegetables. I’ve eaten more zucchini these past couple of months than anything have my entire life before meow. But no […]
