Dear Jonn…
Jonn Lilyea passed 5 years ago today. A recent photo of his marker is above. His last post to the blog read: “I’ll admit that I have “mumbly peg” scars on my feet, but none in my chest.” Where does one even begin to write about the man? He was eloquent: This is the same […]

From time to time I have to respond to an inquiry about “who we are”. Usually, it is some smarmy and unctuous malcontent pretending to give a rats ass about what we do here. I generally just ignore them. On rare occasion I feel compelled to respond if it is coming from someone that has […]
Annual Fundraiser -Here All Week(end)!
What, already? It’s time to shamelessly rattle the cup, and I’m your huckleberry. I recall Jonn’s reticence to ask for help, and I thought it pretty humorous the tuff paratrooper Platoon Sergeant gladly handed the chore off to me. See, I have no such qualms.

Regarding Those Idiot-Stick Mandates….
This should really piss off the mumblegum birdbrains in the general area of The Swamp: https://www.route-fifty.com/public-safety/2022/02/dem-mask-mandate/361730/ As the omicron variant of Covid-19 fades, at least five states with Democratic governors this week moved to roll back mask mandates.
