DAY 72 / JAN 10

DAY 72 / JAN 10

A perfectly dreary morning.  The sun barely shone through the low haze over the horizon little a white disc in the sky.   The chill in the air was not overwhelming, but did complement the desolation of another day.  I meandered to another meeting and organized my day.

 

Hungry this morning… can't wait 'til lunch.  Then I have to get some counselings done before the day ends.

 

Yeah, well, I blew off the counselings, so I guess they'll wait til tomorrow. 

 

I keep hearing and reading about this crazy Muslim Cartoon situation going on around the world.  I find it very disturbing that a single cartoon depicting Mohammed with a bomb could incite such fury as to have people killed, buildings torched, and general mayhem across the globe.   I mean really, it was a cartoon, it's not like he burned the Koran or beheaded muslims or anything like that.  Sometimes, it seems like some people just want to start a fight over the littlest issue.   And no matter what you do to appease them (fire the cartoonist, the editor, etc), they still go on burning down embassies and rioting – even rioting against people and places that had NOTHING to do with the cartoon!   Now that I've expressed my displeasure at their actions, I had better watch my back to make sure I don't get mortared or bombed while at work!

 

About Websense.  I just noticed that one of the sites I tried to go to was blocked because it might contain "adult content."   Don't get the wrong idea, I wasn't going to any porn place or any of that stuff… sheesh.  But anyway, it looks like the military has deemed (through websense) that its Soldiers are not "adults."   Curious isn't it?

 

Going to try to do some PT in the morning... we'll see how that goes.
