Kat, over at The Middle Ground notes it's... Easter. And has some observations of Halliburton's ditching Kellogg, Brown and Root.
Princess Crabby, AKA Boston Maggie, has a Borescope and Pullover. Those who know, know.
I get all the military death notices via email, and when you see one that comes through of a soldier that died of wounds months after he was wounded, well, I wonder what the story is. One such of those last week was Specialist Curtis Spivey. And Fuzzybear Lioness of Fuzzilicious Thinking has the backstory on Specialist Spivey, and there is a Valour-IT connection. What's Valour-IT you say? I'm glad you asked - just click that link.
If you haven't visited the Castle Adjutant Brab of Righty in a Left State lately (understandable, she has been in the dungeon for a while) you've missed a wonderful error message and a jaundiced view of the Pacific Northwest.
Over at My Side of the Puddle, Denizen Were-kitty has stirred herself, providing some video entertainment. She's also a rare Denizen who *likes* her Representative, and has her own words for the MC's who voted for the "Surrender Bill."
The Snarkatron of Snark Patrol, aka Bad Cat Robot, has been busy. She reviewed 300, then spanked an eco-poseur. and applauds a little stick-in-the-eye action from the President.
SWWBO has a message for you. For some, you might perceive a digit waving proudly in the air, so to speak.
Just This Guy is just toying with Google. Careful dude, if they erase you from their databases... you cease to exist, y'know. One thing's for sure - I can use JTG's blogging schedule as an offset for the Castle's impact on the planet.
Trias really *did* pull the plug.
Cassandra of Villainous Company asks some questions, gets mostly snark in return... perhaps it's the karma-balance thing, since she's dishing some snark herself. Then she points out one of the reasons why, even if they *do* allow ownership of machineguns, the Castle is not located in Missouri.
Alan of GenX@40 has his own roundup of bits and pieces.
Over at Random Fate, we find we're with Jack on this. We *are* having bandwidth issues from it - which manifests itself in things like double-posting comments and other annoyances.
1SG Keith of My Army Life and Times, well, he's just been busy. Personally, I blame undead felines. Just sayin'.
Heh. Here's Alan again, this time on A Good Beer Blog. It appears that the lawyer in him is perplexipated by that Great American Experiment in Social Engineering, Prohibition. I use the term "great" advisedly. Now we would call it the War on Alcohol. Heh. Like the War on Drugs, back in the day, the War on Alcohol was responsible for a lot of gun deaths, which dropped when the government surrendered to the people on the issue. Hmmmm. Naw, it's completely different.
We'll conclude this bit by sending you to Murray at Hitting Metal with a Hammer. I see he noticed the same thing I did about the repatriated Brits, and he has an interesting comment on his Labour-led government.
