Frequent visitors will probably recognize the
posting-handle Saker, recently elevated from the status of "Lurker-In-The-Drapes" to "Demi-Denizenne and Designated Gopher for the SugarButtons Brigade."
I now move that she be elevated to full Denizenne, with all rights and privileges pertaining thereunto*.
Tomorrow, Saker
gets dragged kicking and screaming like a cheerleader on helium departs for a Well-Known Military Installation down in Cricket's neck of the woods to participate in the Rite Of Passage known as Basic Combat Training.
She's already been briefed about refraining from
remarking aloud on the attractiveness of her Drill Sergeant's butt speaking unless spoken to and turning her "Army Combatives" partner into human origami.
Party Time!

*okay, they're nonexistent except for the bragging rights, but one of her Drills may be impressed.
Although I doubt it.
But you do post good posts Bill.
While still OCONUS, the Forward Deployable Dance Pole may be requisitioned for Saker to practice with. Ever since the nuptials, the Castle's Dance Pole at the Great Hall has collected a thick layer of dust and cobwebs.
Welcome to the family Saker.
that slackeryer mentor a note and ping 'im to post more often, wouldja? I've tried cutting his pay, and doubling his pay, and nuthin' seems to work, but he's a sucker for a smart chick, especially one that's a troop-larva. Excites his mothering instincts. He's pretty much immune to seniority.Oh, right. Posting pix of counterclockwise-knurled needlegun bolts from the Franco-Prussian War is *your* milieu -- throwing the age card is *mine*...
Maybe I can bribe him? No more peanut brittle unless he posts on some defined schedule??
Technically, Miss L, that's extortion, rather than bribery. Ummmm -- look for a post in the immediate future...
Is that so she won't run into it? I don't think that's gonna get ya the peanut brittle, Mr. DeBille.

Way to go!!!!
I'd say "Have fun", but we know that's not really gonna happen, so I'll just say "KICK SOME BOOTY!!!"
Way to go, indeed! Give 'em hell, Saker :-)
