Beck at least apologized for the lost hour of your life:
"America, I have to shoot straight with you, I think I have wasted your time."
Jonah Goldberg - the Blogfather:
Just wondering if any of the Navy vets and career Navy men out there are starting to get peeved with Massa's explanation that his inappropriate tickle-fights and other gay(ish) hijinks stemmed from his inability to transition from Navy to civilian life. Tickle fights? I think even most gay men become a helicopter of fists when a fifty year old dude starts a "tickle fight."
Yours truly, in a note to some Navy buddies:
Beck's interview with Massa can be used as a recruiting tool by the other services. "Lookit this man, kid. He was a Captain in the US Navy. Sure you wouldn't rather join the Army/Marines/Coast Guard/Peace Corps/ACORN?"
Justin Hart at Right-o-Sphere: Tickle Me Massa
Cap'n Lex, old sailor, old buddy, old pal? Help a brother out - instead of doing a haka or something down there in the ready room prior to taking off for a strike, didja all really have tickle fights? Heh. Lex kinda took some of the fun out of the hate-fest with this post. Damn high road.
Update: Michael Scherer of TIME takes a moment to beat up on Beck... I include that to be all fair and balanced and all.

You know, CAPT Massa is the kind of officer who gives buggery such a bad name.
Sigh.......
Keel-hauling. He did reveal that health-care didn't go far enough, but to go on the show and out himself is sick; Beck should have gone to black and the network put up a rerun of something.
Massa wanted to go on the show to name names; the second he changed the subject, he had control and Beck should gone to a commercial and brought on a backup.
Now the interesting part: Photographs? Too raunchy or explicit to be shown on television? I bet every person that thinks he could be in one of those photos is going to be hounding Massa...so maybe there is justice after all.
@Tim, Whatyathink? I saw the Kitty Hawk being built in Camden, NJ back in the 50's. I saw her screws, just maybe, he might even begin to feel them.
Please, don't talk about Wesley Clark and Merrill McPeak that way. LOL
Yeah, we don't want me to open up my Prince of Darkness archives... or get Dusty started on McPeak.
Just the other day, my neighbors wanted to talk about something; fine. Once they lost their focus, I walked away. The accusation was that my children called her 'fat.' I know for a fact my kids have never called her fat. I called her on the lie. She started ranting about other things, which led me to believe it wasn't about my children, but about her need to punish someone or something for some really stupid choices she has made.
She calmed down and said she might have been mistaken (yeah, you were) and went into her house.
I will be so glad when either they or I move.
As it is, there is a peaceful coexistence...and there will not be next time.

And his other columns as well. Lonsberry is a great writer, and has hit many subjects of interest to castle visitors. He is philosophically much like us, but with a microphone, and does occasional stints on the NRA broadcasts as well.
