    Just a Howdy. Been a while.

    So, the missus and I parted amicably. Still friends and talk. Had 20 years and a great son. Just grew apart. Retired officially on the 27th of this month. On terminal leave. 90% disability. VA will up the last 10% once I'm out and can file all the med claims. Selling house. Moving home to Texas...

    Dude, I should have replied. I'm sorry I didn't. You and your ladies are awesome friends and mean a lot. Thanks, brother. I'm always here for you, no matter what. Give Violet a non-creepy hug from me and fist bump. She won't remember, of course, but I do.

    Sorry gang. Been TDY one last time to Eglin AFB for the wounded warrior CARE event. Home now and wheels down and chocked. Odd feeling. I keep looking at my watch like I need to be somewhere. I miss it. As most of you know, the Mrs. and I split. We're still amicable, but...yeah. Both my Labs are...

    Officially 27 June, but, yes. Uniform today for last time. Mix of elation/sadness/what the hell do I do now? Sleep in is first! :p I've got a ton of other options lined up. Ridiculously high security clearance, search and rescue with my dog, EMT/Paramedic, NRA Instructor license. But, for the...

    12 hours. 12 hours 'till I'm on Terminal. 12 hours 'till I wake for the AF for the last time at o'Dark Thirty. 12 hours 'till I get to start a new chapter. 12 hours 'till I stop putting on combat boots as daily all day wear. 12 hours 'till I get to look back with pride and satisfaction of a job...

    Worst Commercial

    Saw a quick blurb that Bud made 1.6 MILLION after Manning made those comments. No clue as to the veracity, but sounds possible. -Trey Edit to spell "blurb" correctly! Ha!

    Personal sharing with my CP Family

    Yep! 18 and out and about. Now, I sit back as Dad and hope to God I gave him what he needs to know to survive and thrive. Plus, I expect him to make untold riches so I can retire! :P

    Personal sharing with my CP Family

    Well hell, thanks, Bother! For the first time in 20 years I suddenly have all my spastic, eclectic passions back and am free to learn whatever I want to be good at! I have all the degrees I want..(admittedly...a Doctorate would be cool so people have to call me Doctor, but I digress). I hadn't...

    Personal sharing with my CP Family

    Heyo Gents. After much deliberation, after my last relapse, I put myself through another inpatient, only this time geared toward PTSD with the alcohol as a secondary topic. I can't even begin to tell you how dramatic some of the stuff I got out of it was. Good folks, all military, all with the...

    hi all...sorry for the delays and confusion. Went to San Antonio for a month and missed all this. Got back just in time for the holidays. All is well and my original wish was to try a Monte Double Edmundo. Since I was incommunicado for so long, no worries if we kick this back to CigSid. Hope...
