My new pad

This is my quarters for the next month or so. A stylish 10 x 10 room fitted with 2 double bunks, a couple of lockers and chipped paint peeling from the walls. A first class upgrade compared to the open bay WWII-era barracks I lived in last time. Luckily my roomate has a Sprint Internet card so a crossover cable allows me to leech his bandwidth.


No, I do not have to make my bed.

Justification for my bad play

As I said in game chat. My apologies in advance for all the gross suckouts I may inflict before I leave this weekend. As Smokkee put it, I have been running like Zeus.

There is never really justification for terrible play but I do have other things on my mind.

In a few days I will be back on active duty preparing for my second tour in Iraq.

I expect to be at Fort Dix NJ for about a month before going overseas. If I can somehow manage a weekend pass, I do plan on heading to AC, since I have never been there.

When I am over there I will try to post some updates within the boundaries of OPSEC.

Got a letter in the mail ...

Operation Iraqi Freedom tour of duty number two coming up.


This must be why I have been running like Zeus.
