Why listen to the officers? They get the entire unit lost when they are given the map.

There was a US Army paratrooper demonstration. A Sergeant said that he had made over 50 jumps. An older gentleman said that he was a paratrooper too. The Sergeant asked him how many jumps he had made. The old man said "Five. North Africa, Sicily, Salerno, Normandy, Holland . . . " I guess that he figured that those were the only ones that counted!

This social isolation lockdown stuff is hard work with two small children. It's like having a pair of demented parrots who have learned to talk about Pok�mon at a volume I have only experienced whilst working with jet engines. It's a good job they've already been born, else this past week would have put me right off the idea of having children, the pair of them are stuck on transmit.

My wife and I are home with just us and the two cats. No children here, but we do say there is no adult supervision in our home.

Good afternoon. Staying in my new apartment now even though I still have some stuff in the old one. The kittens spent a few hours exploring but have decided that since the phat man has settled in that it is now their nap time.

Thank you. The stress is/was getting to me. It is hard to move when you don't own a vehicle.

Too bad off physically to even try and rent a vehicle and move what little I have in one day.

I laid down for a bit, then the leg cramps started. It is a good thing that I have some muscle relaxants!

There is a saying that if the parachute dies not open then skydiving is not for you. Well, that is not always the case:

There was a man in parachute training who "Was the last one out and the first one down" since his parachute did not open. He fell 3500 feet, did a commando roll, walked away with minor injuries, then jumped again two weeks later. He was about 31 years old then, when he was 17 he grabbed a couple of hand grenades of which at least one exploded under him. He started high school wearing a blue ribbon with stars on it with a medal attached to the ribbon. He also had a wife who tried to kill him.
