A Fake Captain
No, no, no… that that *kind* of captain. This is a *real* fake captain. Internet sensation ‘Big Balls’ has nothing on this guy. He steals both a ship and the *entire* crew, although they did turn him in when they sensed something was suspicious… you know, as in he wasn’t their regular captain. Fake captain […]
FrankenSAMs getting to Ukraine
Quite a little cottage industry now, repackaging existing missiles as Surface to Air Missiles (SAMs) to make them more portable and/or more available to Ukraine. The battlefield is a lot different now – the airspace is an “if it flies, it dies” zone occupied by multiple drones and counterdrone equipment. We now have our first […]
Rodney King’s Attorney Gets Prison Time
“Can We All Get Along?” Those were the famous words uttered by Rodney King after the riots broke out following the aquittal of the police officers that beat him – the beatdown captured on video for all to see. Well, King’s lawyer Milton C. Grimes was sentenced to serve time in prison – 18 months […]

The group believed in artifical intelligence theories, ethical reasoning and veganism, the outlet […]
Failed Marine program
Military Times did an item about a Marines program introduced in 2013. Apparently the results have been – well, underwhelming. In 2013, the Marine Corps released an administrative message with an intriguing offer: Through a special pilot program, troops could hit pause on their active-duty career and transition to the Individual Ready Reserve for up […]
Saturday silliness
I remember Dave King, the lead singer for Irish punk band Flogging Molly, thanking the Pope for all the song inspirations he had given them. Looking at some of the ideas floated by our newly elected President-redux, it looks like the next four years should be interesting. If anything, it’s hard to decide where to […]
Chuckie Pinocchio
Well, we always knew we could trust Chuck Schumer, right? Sorta reminds me of a book I once saw when I was younger, an anti-Communism screed named “You Can Trust the Russians” (whose subtitle was something like “to do what they always do whether you like it or not!” Have never seen another copy since.)
