TAD

I just got designated for an assignment in California from 4 Jan thru 15 Jan. Well that's the plan so far. There are a few quirks but they're working them out right now. It might be even pushed back. I really do want to go though. I like traveling plus I've never been to Pasadena. I also have a couple of boys over in Pendleton and two-nine that I would like to see. Well I'll write more when I have the final scoop on things.

The Unit

You know what... I really don't care for this unit at all.

My Christmas Break

I think my Christmas was a rather pleasant one. On Xmas eve I dropped my little brother off at the airport. On the way home I stopped at the local movie store and picked up Hero with Jet Li. I was pretty impressed. I like those chinese movies that are set in ancient chinese times. I like how there is so much wisdom and moral guidence in them that it makes me feel like a scumbag when I can't accomplish simple acts of willpower. Speaking of lack of willpower, I decided that a few drinks wouldn't hurt but without realizing it I had drank a fifth of gin. I honestly don't feel there's anything wrong with that either. I mean, I'm alone on Xmas and I was bored. So I had a good time, watched a great movie, and I poured one for Baby G. How can you beat that????....Good movie...Good Drink...Me and Baby G....Damn Good Times... Couldn't Beat It With A Stick!

On the day after Christmas one of my really good friends came down to visit from Michigan. There's nothing better than sitting down with buddies from old units and just telling stories about new faces and new places that they've seen. My buddy just got back from Iraq not too long ago and we'll be going together this summer. So hopefully I'll bump into all of them out there. We also went to see that 'Meet the Fockers' movie. It was pretty good, I thought it was just as good as the first one. I want that RV that Rober DeNiro drives in that movie.

Today is the first day back at work for me but it's only a two day work week. We're off for another 5 days after that so that's all good. Hopefully it's as exciting as this last break. Actually I did a whole bunch more stuff than just this but I wouldn't publish it to my blogger. I don't know about your skeletons but my skeletons love closets...hahahahahahaha.

It's So Cold :(

This morning I had to put gas in before I went to work and it was so cold that by the time I made it to $5 the cold had defeated my efforts to fillup. I was like, 2 gallons will get me to work and that's all I need.

This is going to be a miserable winter.

Glove Compartment

Hey guess what I now have in my glove compartment that no one in the world has......give up???? I got a pair of gloves. I don't think that I've ever opened up a glove compartment and seen a pair of gloves. I've seen old gum, candy, handguns, ammunition, lube, toilet paper, watchbands, and porno magazines (lube). But never have I seen a pair of gloves. Except for my glove compartment. I'm the first one in the world.

I WORSHIP FRIENDS!!!

Almost 2 years ago when I first got to 4th Mar I remember that we were asked to update our SRB through the new MOL. I completely forgot but when it came to the part to choose religion, I noticed there was like 200 religions which is ridiculous when you really think about it (remember kids..Jesus is the only God). Anyways, I saw that FRIENDS was listed as a religion that the MC recognizes.

I think it's great that some people take religion as serious as I do......Haaaaaaaaaa!

Peterson is going to DIE...Hahahahahahaha.....Hahahahahaha

I saw it on TV last night. One down and about 10 million to go. The system is still too soft if you ask me though. I would have more respect if they had daily televised executions. Do you think that they could make enuf money to pay for the war if they put executions on pay-per-view? In this sick country....you goddamn right. I would be the first one to subscribe too.

Powershot A80

Here's my little dilema. I bought a Canon Powershot A80 in Japan. However I got it a little wet and it never worked again. The next day my 200 dollar waterproof case arrived in the mail (story of my life by the way). So I bought another one because getting it wet isn't included in the warranty. However, while I was on leave this summer my crack head cousin stole it out of my luggage and sold it for enuf to get high. I love my familly.

So now I took the old one to a cannon repair shop. The dilema is that if they can fix it the cost will be a flat 150 dollars. However if they can't I can pay 150 dollars or less and get a new more advanced Powershot. However, I would be stuck with a 200 dollar waterproof case that isn't worth anything. Thing about canon that I love is that all their Powershots are relatively the same. Except that they offset the buttons slightly so none of the waterproof cases can be used with another model. Isn't that great. They aren't even making the A80 anymore. God I love how the system works. It's like a giant web of poop and I'm a little fly caught in the middle.

Words of wisdom: Don't get caught in poop and don't ever ever ever poop your pants!

Burn Peterson At The Stake And Put It On T.V.!!!

You know I just don't get it. What is wrong with American justice nowadays??? Where did we go completely wrong and why are we so damn soft? I was on CNN just a few mins ago and I saw that Scott Peterson's (the one on trial for murdering his wife and unborn son) 8th grade junior high teacher took the stand and testified on his behalf with these words:

"He is a fine citizen"? WHAT THE FEEDUCK! By the way the trial is in the 5th day of the sentencing phase. They are deciding whether he should be put to death (sit on deathrow for 30 years) or spend life in prison.

Am I the only one who thinks that this testimony is completely retarded. Not only that but his highschool principal Marvin Threatt also took the stand with this emmy award winning line:

"Many students would not come back to school on time. The thing I recall mostly about Scott is that he did always come back on time. He was never late."

Gee Marv thanks for the info. I think that he should definately be allowed to live. I mean he showed up on time for class....WOW!!

I've come to the conclusion that I should run for office. I really mean that. I think that we should clean up alot of society starting with some of our most outstanding citizens who somehow wrongly end up in our state and federal prisons. I'm tired of all this shit about serial rapist and serial murderers and child molesters and just flat out sick bastards who go to prison for the rest of their life. I know prison isn't a walk in the park or anything but look at this way you get clothes, three hots, and a cot. Offer that to some of these people who live on the streets of New York, L.A., Chicago, or Detroit. Try keeping warm with grocery bags duct taped to your feet. I bet they would rather live in prison where they would have a gauranteed 3 squares and a cot and a blanket every day.

Call me sick in the head if you want but this is the core of my beliefs. If you murder, rape, molest or cruely violate someone else's rights. Then you deserve to have your rights as a human stripped from you and have someone else cruely violate you. I'm not talking about this sorry ass deathrow crap we have now. I'm talking about nailing somebody to a wall, painting a dartboard on their chest and throwing steel darts at them so they can bleed to death slowly. All the while I'll be kickin back listening to them scream and having a beer. I have a million great ideas. I really do. Here's one. How about tearing out a perfectly healthy strong tooth with a pair of vice grips...or how bout this one....Build a rink similar to a hockey rink but instead of ice it will be a giant frying pan. You have the sides made of crystal clear bullet proof glass 20 feet high so no one gets out but everyone else on the outside can enjoy all the fun on the inside. You throw 50 of our most deserving inmates in the ring barefooted.....You let them get to know each other for about an hour....Then you turn up the heat to about.....(what does chicken cook at hmmm)....oh yeah....375...and you just watch. One guy will kill another with his bare hands just to stand on his back. Then another guy will do it...then another...ooooh it would be great. Just to see the look of despairon their faces...You know that look someone gets when their whole entire world collapses all around them and they realize the end of their life is going to be horrid. God I think I got a hard-on just thinking about it all. Don't worry I got so many more ideas. Just ask and I'll share them with you.

OH YEAH....VOTE FOR CAT...HAHAHAHAHA

Still Sick

I've been sick for 9 days now. I finally broke down after 7 days and went to see a doctor. He asks me what's wrong and I tell him that I've been coughing up ugly things and that my nose has been bleeding for a whole week. He gives me some sudafed, cough syrup, and some asprin to take away the headaches that the cough is giving me. Wow, and people ask me why I don't like going to the doctor. Military doctors are worth about as much as dirt most of the time.

Good news is that I am going to the hospital in a few hours so they can take a look at me. If I'm lucky they'll tell me that I have 12 sec to live, then I can just die and get this whole being sick thing over with.

Couldn't Help It

Am I sick in the head for noticing this or does this sound really wrong to everyone else. Maybe I'm wrong for simply bringing it to everyones attention. I was on CNN and there was this article about this young girl that was killed by accident. The papers interviewed the uncle and asked for a comment.

This is what he said: "She never had a chance to enjoy life or spread the love that I know she was going to spread to everyone."

I know he meant well but it just doesn't sound right. For some reason it made me chuckle though, but then I felt guilty. Which made me chuckle some more because let's face it, I'm not the one who said it.

Flying First Class

This is how funny my dad is. It cracks me up when he tells the stories that he does. I booked him a plane ticket for Sunday the 28th through priceline for a couple hundred bucks. When he showed up at the airport they told him that he has a first class ticket. First of all I know that I didn't book him a first class ticket. Second, I don't think you can even fly first class for only a couple hundred dollars.

So he calls me up and he's like "why the hell did you fly me first class"? I'm sitting there wondering to myself why he's even complaining. He tells me that they put him in first class with all theses businessmen who are wearing suits and trench coat and reading the Wall Street Journal while my dad's sitting there in his Harley Davidson t-shirt with cutoff sleeves. He tells me that he felt all embarassed because the stuartist came around every five minutes for drinks and everyone was ordering fancy smancy teas but he had no idea what the hell they were. So when the stuartist came to him he said tea as well because he didn't know what else to say.

The stuartist asks him what kind and my dad says "tea with sugar". The stuartist looked lost so my dad says just water would be fine. Anyways, the funniest part is the stuartist kept coming by every couple of minutes and asking what else he wanted and he got all self conscious so he faked being asleep for the rest of the flight so she would quit asking him questions. My dad rocks. He does the funniest things. I just had to write that down cuz it's the funniest thing I've heard in a while.
