Cherry Blossoms
April 29th, 2013
Since I live near D.C., cherry blossoms are a big deal every spring. But even though I live so close to the city, I rarely go downtown to see the famous cherry trees, because I can open my front door and see all this without even having to leave the front yard:
About a month ago I decided I should start reading other military blogs again. I do this every year or so in order to see what’s going on in Milblog World and to see if I’m missing any great writing or stories. But so far, once again, I’ve been disappointed. The blogs I find all [...]
I don’t like talking about the Marine Corps. I won’t lie to avoid it, but I rarely make an effort to bring it up. Talking to other Marines is usually fine, or to non-Marines who have half a clue about the Marine Corps. But most people ask irritating questions or say dumb stuff and I [...]
I just reread the post about my last Individual Ready Reserve muster and laughed, because I’d forgotten about the Supply women story and because last week on Facebook I NAILED the “free pens and chip clips” memory without having to look it up.
