Been a bit busy this past week – daytime job primary among the reasons. New organizations are interesting and engaging entities, but their demands can be nearly all consuming at times and when added to a three hour commute, well, the grey matter was more interested in vegetating than cogitating – or something like that….
If tw0’s company and three’s a conspiracy/mutiny – what about a bunch more? Call it Milblogger 2010 . . . Made it to the morning session before having to depart for other duties in the afternoon, but in the interim joined up with Mary (USNI), ‘Phib (CDR Salamander), Taco (Sandgram), Jim Dolbow (USNI); Sgt B…
Well the nominations are in and on the Navy side of the house there are five sites up for your voting consideration –USNI’s blog, CDR Salamander, Neptunus Lex, US Fleet Forces Command (ADM Harvey’s blog) and your humble scribe. The list provides a most interesting cross-section of the Navy’s milblogging community. There are active duty…
Trying to get something that presents a clean look, loads fast and provides quick access to more content. Thoughts? Comments? Brickbats?
Admittedly, there has been a bit of light posting around here of late – but with good cause. With the new year we shifted location and jobs, moving from the purple world back to Navy blue and gold. Still very much involved in the operational world and much more analytical work, but from a different…
Joining the milblogsphere through 18 Dec: On Wednesday 16 December 2009, many milblogs — including This Ain’t Hell, From My Position, Blackfive, Miss Ladybug, Boston Maggie, Grim’s Hall, and those participating in the Wednesday Hero program — are going silent for the day. Some are choosing to go silent for a longer period of time….
Just a quick note about a new feature – Table of Contents. On more than one occasion I know I have used a category search to find a particular post, only to have to wade through pages of hits. Well, this nifty new plugin for WP blogs generates a table of contents by Category type…
For the past few weeks this site’s attention has been focused on the Project VALOUR-IT 2009 fundraiser, and forgoing other topics in the interest of keeping it upfront. Now that the campaign is over, we’ll use this post to catch up on a couple of items put on ice during that time. I. Thanks and…
*Finally*Â After almost five weeks of “interfacing” with two (almost three) different internet service providers, untold numbers of hours on the phone with incompetent technicians and unhelpful customer “service” reps (don’t even get me started with the ‘survey’ requirements), we are finally back online and no longer wifi whoring a few minutes at a time…
Light posting for a bit over the next few days as we shift our pennant from the two bedroom apartment we have shared with SWMBO and two college-age kids to the new digs. In between, it’s another DITY move. Provided fortune smiles upon us (read: the internet provider doesn’t goober up the connection), we should…
