Last night was Eric's leaving dinner. Everyone met at Jeremiah's house and left from there. There was Eric, Myself, Chris Lerdahl, Jeremiah and Zoe, Zack Blake and his "Mrs", Brandon Everly and his "Mrs" and John. We had some great conversation right from the start, which is important for Me. We piled into three calls and drove out to Maastricht. ( Read more... )

last night I went over to Jeremiah's and Zoe's (where Eric is staying). They're back home now, and they made lasagna for us. Had a nice quiet evening. Tonight is Eric's going away get-together. Myself, Jeremiah and Zoe, Zack and his "mrs" and perhaps Brandon and his "mrs" will all be going to a sushi place in Maastricht. I don't think any of us ( Read more... )

Well, it's been SUCH a long time since I've been on here. So much has happened, and yet, so little. I'm still in NL; My phone is still down (for now). This country is the second most expensive on the planet to live in (after England) and it's noticeable. I don't know how I can get a plane ticket home when I'm trying to pay so many bills. Then again ( Read more... )

LAST one for the day; especially for someone in Florida!! ;) (I particularly like the "what to do" part) Enjoy ( Read more... )

ok, I rarely post twice a day, but this was on the same site, and it's a perfect summation of how I often feel about the American people.. or at least the ones I've met ( Read more... )

I found this on a joke website, and while it isn't terribly funny, it's quite illuminating. Everyone complains about tax cuts, but this puts it into language that anyone can understand.. or as the Army would say "They broke it down to Barney level". (The Army believes everything should be explained at a level that a purple dinosaur could word to ( Read more... )

Well, it's been a while since I last posted so I suppose I'm overdue. Thursday (15th) was my birthday. My good friends Eric and Angus had been planning a surprise for me for about two weeks, that I managed to ruin unknowingly the day before. Prior to this, they had talked about taking me out, getting me liquored up and all three of us getting ( Read more... )

Well, yesterday the flags went back up on camp. Today, when I went past the window, I saw the US flag is at half-mast, which I'm trying to figure out. I know they had it that way for Reagan, but I know I had noticed it back up after that. Our Independence day celebrations should be quite large at the US Base down the road. There's supposed to be ( Read more... )

Well I seem to have had a problem lately with sleeping in considerably later than I should, although as always I squeeze by. On Thursday we had gale-force winds here, and as a result every flagpole in front of the HQ building is broken.. actually where the cable attaches to it that enables them to raise and lower the flags.. Among other things NATO ( Read more... )
