Retired USN (Aviation), still in the biz. Husband & dad, trying to do right and have some fun through it all.
Hmmm, game 5 of the World Series or The Outlaw Josey Wales?

Made another run at ChatGPT. You know: lofty, intellectual, serious learning stuff.

Vax’d & boosted (x3). Think I might be done. Recent DX of prostate cancer; doc says at my age there’s men who die *from it & those who die *with it. Trick is finding out where on the risk scale one is. Feeling a bit of the same about COVID now. Ofc I’d isolate if/when I get it. Made it 2y9m to 1st.
Yep, I’m having the worst of my booster side-effects today, but it’s 1000% worth-it, protecting me and others! They’re predicting only 25% of the USA will get this booster; let’s help beat that number! 🦠💉💪
Urrrrrrrgh. Went thru the labors of Hercules to get my covid booster -- @walgreens is such shit, esp in Black neighborhoods -- but I got it, and flu vax too. Today is fun: fever, body aches, random soreness. Still better than brain damage. Get your booster, if you can!

If there's one thing wrong with this site, it's this: It is very difficult on a Monday morning to login and easily identify what I'm supposed to be outraged about.

This meal just cost me $78 at Newark Airport. This is why Americans think the economy is terrible.

Some great offerings available via stream to the public from this year’s Naval History Symposium. Pity to miss “Rickover: In His Own Words” by Claude Berube. Sure to be a great peek into what promises to be a terrific forthcoming book.
