Word of the Day

Bankst - The feeling you get from resenting the bank charges that nickel and dime you to give banks record profits.

We didn't get any rain today...yet. It's looked on and off threatening but it's just been windy and cool. On occasion the sun peeks out but that's about as far as it goes.

I talked to my Devil Dog daughter today. She's only just arrived at Camp Geiger for her Marine Combat Training. She had to recuperate from a fractured hip after boot camp at Parris Island. She was thrilled when they "voted her off the island on Friday." She'll be starting her training on Tuesday. Cross your fingers folks. If all goes well...no more broken bones...she'll be on to MOS (schooling for her field in the Marines) in 22 days...or maybe RA (recruiter's assistance) in Omaha if her school isn't ready for her to start classes.

Murphyism of the Day

Edington's Theory

The number of different hypotheses erected to explain a given biological phenomenon is inversely proportional to the available knowledge.
