I’m having a decent summer so far. The PNW has entered the post July 4th sunny and hot phase. Business is good, so far. People are reading my stories. What more could a guy ask for.
Looking around at the world and the news being reported can give a guy nightmares. Brandon lost, and I mean lost a debate with #45 and looked like Uncle Bad Touch when he was doing it. The Democrat faithful and party movers and shakers are having a running gun fight in the media on what to do about it. The DNC polling is showing the potential for a resounding loss in November, even if Brandon gets replaced on the ticket. Brandon and his family are refusing to step aside. This is going to get spicy the closer we get to November

My current project is describing how the world gets drug into WW3 by the actions of a few. Wars are easy to start, but it takes some finesse to make them go global. I keep researching weapons and advances in the arms and armor of the various countries that have the potential to be key players in the next big show. Even with all of the research, coming up with new stuff is still easy as ever. I can make things up and do not have to spend the tons of cash in R&D or contracting to get there.
The only thing that can really upset the apple cart now is if an alien race decides to make an appearance in DC or Moscow to demand that the people takes them to our leaders. That might be one heck of a confusing exercise. God help them if the little great men with big eyes land in rural Louisiana. Momma Boudroau will self publish a cook book on how to put these “foreigners” into a gumbo that will make you want to slap your momma.
This is an exercise in procrastination. I need to be writing and editing, or building the outline for the next project. So here is the title, BAE: Sideways and Pear Shaped. The title is a homage to how no perfect plan survives first contact with the enemy, and the easy way in the advance is leading into an ambush. I’m sure we all understand how CSM Murphy can screw up an operation, and see all of the testicle macerenia that goes on the pull the proverbial rabbit out of the hat.
Commanders plan and squads execute. Funny how success always gets placed on the backs of the guy with 6 years time in service, at least one divorce, and if he or she has been deployed multiple time, more kills than cancer. These poor bastards lead the fire teams that get shit done, and get more shit to do in combat. Cheers to the squad and team leaders, the tank commanders, and the ADA bois that will pull America’s fat out of the fire. It’s going to be a wild ride!
