Hearts, the Time Machine, and Horses

Sign right outside a Congressional meeting in DC.

Hearts
Do you want to know where a vast majority of the worldwide psychos, misfits, degenerates, brain dead, insecure, mongoloid, and midget brained, non-card playing perverts are on the web?  Try playing free hearts on the MSN network. You can chose a player name like groinescratch, or bigpoleman or hautvajeana and join a rousing game of hearts. It's difficult to get a game because people often quit before the game starts or right as the game starts, in an attempt to mess with other players. By the time you go through the eight steps or so to even get a match, you'll find out that most people actually believe it's a game of skill instead of a computer dealing the cards in a pre-chosen way. It's 90% cards and 10% playing skill, but people will act like you killed their mother if you give them the Queen of spades. They will call you every name in the book. Some people stall for as long as possible, believing they are tormenting other players. Some cuss constantly on the chat board. Some hold grudges if they have a match with someone who beat them before. Some just mumble. Many quit after the first hand. Most blame any loss on someone else. It's just like politicians in a government meeting. It could be, too, because you have no idea who you are really playing. It's bad during the week, but I swear that MSN must have a contract with every psycho ward and mental hospital in the world with computers because on Saturday and Sunday they are all online. If hearts online is any indicator of the current state of the human race, the world is doomed, and very soon.

The Time Machine
 Quote by someone named Jewdog on Pakistan today:
"To convert the current date to the calendar in Pakistan: Subtract 1300 years, so 2012 - 1300 = 712. If you vacation in Pakistan, you will not only be traveling through space, but back in time to a simpler age, when men were men, women knew their place and the earth was flat."

Horses
One of my relatives, a guest of the state in Henryville, Indiana, said that virtually the entire town had been destroyed by the tornadoes a few weeks or so back. He said they saw it heading toward them but it changed direction so the prison is the only place in town still standing. He is now on one of the cleanup crews. Here is something you won't hear on the news. He said they had horses running around down there with tree limbs sticking out of their bodies after being punctured by the wind. A tornado is a nightmare that spares nothing.

Vietnam: The Liberty Bridge

(This entry has had a lot of comments, and I'm glad it can help bring Nam vets together or to help find each other. If you have a comment, please attach your name to the comment or from this point forward it won't be published. I've received many comments that are phony and obviously made up, submitted by anonymous submission. I do screen all comments. Click the photo to enlarge. Semper Fi.) This is the Liberty Bridge (click to make larger) in Quang Nam Province in Vietnam during July of 1968. Of the 14,000 Marines killed in Vietnam, 10,000 were killed in Quang Nam Province. (Figures in comment section show a little under 7000 KIA in Quang Nam.) This was late in my tour on July 2. The bridge had been blown once again by the enemy to isolate the Marine base at An Hoa. I was a 50 caliber machine gunner on a convoy to resupply the An Hoa Firebase. I called this the River Styx because it had a ferry boat. Once you crossed the river you entered a nightmare hell on earth cal...

The Jesus Moth

Photo taken through a window screen. I had just gone over the first print copy of The Bad Season on July 22, 2006. I walked over to the window and saw this moth on my outside air conditioner unit. It was the most bizarre thing I had seen in a long time. I retrieved my digital camera and snapped a picture through the glass and the window screen before going outside in a failed to attempt to capture the moth. I contacted a moth expert. He told me what kind of moth it was, but added that he had never seen one with a cross on its back like this one. I call it the Jesus Moth, the Crusader Moth, or maybe the Infidel Moth. The syndicates wanted me to give it to them for free. They said they don't take pics from non-employees because "we would actually have to pay you for it."   Hmm, what a novel concept, getting paid for something. I offered to swap for a syndicated story about my book. They refused. So I copyrighted the entire pic (the one below is a fragment from that p...

The Old Corps: Marine Corps Boot Camp 1966

BLT 1/3 USMC 1967 Vietnam Boot Camp Hell I recently saw a video of what I assume was the current Marine Corps Boot Camp. It mentioned recruits reporting any abuse right away and the DI was trying to be tough (and he did sound tough to an extent), but underneath it all you could tell the old Corps was gone in the civilian desire (political desire by people who never served) to make things easier and less traumatic for the boots. They never mentioned abuse to us in 1966 because we were abused 24/7. I'm an old Corps Hollywood Marine (that's an inside Marine joke about the difference between boot camp in Parris Island or San Diego.) The boots in Parris Island claimed they had it rougher because they had swamps. The Hollywood Marines had mountains. I would rather walk in water than climb mountains so I disagree. I entered the Marine Corps on August 10, 1966. Marines had been in Vietnam for over a year. All of us would probably go to Nam. For some of us it woul...
