On a whim, I decided to take a look at BP's analytics on spyfu.com. Apparently BP's #5 competitor is dannemiller.net, a family blog that was last updated in 2008. It tells the story of Gabby and Scott Dannemiller (AKA Scabby), self described purveyors of peace throughout the free world. This...

For background I am an active-duty officer in the Army. My boss is a full bird colonel. A civilian in my office is a bit intense. He gets loud and emotional when arguing. Today he said something about anti-vaxxers. Told him I refuse to vaccinate my children. This guy lost his mind...

Some people here know that when I first got out of the army in 1993 I intended to go to Ohio State. I was accepted and was ready to start the the following fall when my father was diagnosed with lymphoma. I decided to stay closer to home to help support the family. I wound up going to Kent...

BLUF: When having a difficult time figuring out how to explain things to your children search youtube to see how Mr Rogers did it. I grew up rough. I didn't really learn some of the critical lessons a child should learn. Crying was not tolerated, feeling were not discussed, etc. I don't...

I'm retiring from the Army in about 2 years. For about the last 7 years I've been an Acquisition officer. In plain language I've led teams that design, test, and buy systems for the military. Specifically, I've done software testing, prototyping, concept demonstration, organizational design...

Asking for a friend.

So the Army has told me I’m retiring on July 1st this year. To be quite frank it’s probably only the third time the Army has made the decision I wanted them to. The first time was when I was accepted to Officer Candidate School. The second time was when they accepted me into the Acquisition...

Does anyone have any experience with this? I've been on it for about 9 months. I started out with the gel. That didn't work so I switched over to injections. Overall I've had good results with injections. They were once every two weeks. I had issues with the first week feeling great but by the...

I wouldn't give a bean to be a fancy pants Marine, I'd rather be a dog faced Soldier like I am! Tomorrow is the 239th birthday of my beloved Army. What other organization on Earth could take a simple minded Quaker farmer and turn him into an unrepentant shill for the military industrial...

As a father of two girls I am an advocate of female equality. There are actual issues that we as Americans need to address. That being said, my work has taken me to some rather unpleasant parts of the world where females are actually being oppressed. Not by some sleepwalker who is unaware of...

For a multitude of sad reasons I need to purchase a refridgerator online sight unseen. Does anyone have a french door style refridgerator? If so what do you think of them? Also, does anyone have any brand recommendations? I'm looking to spend between 1 and 2 thousand. Below is the one I'm...

http://news.yahoo.com/apnewsbreak-sources-military-roles-women-003743068.html I am extremely fortunate to be serving at a time when the military is removing a lot of the old barriers. No longer are Soldiers required to hide their sexual orientation. Now there will be increased opportunity...

As some of you know I am currently deployed to Afghanistan getting ready to take a command soon. We are in a pretty isolated spot. The Soldiers here are working pretty much 20 hours a day. There isn't a lot of joy to be had here. We aren't on a super FOB. What I was hoping was that some of...

I live about an hour outside of France, about four hours outside of Paris (five hours if you're driving with two little girls). For the last month I've been to France on several excursions. The first, I spent several days in Paris for New Years. The second, I took my daughters to Disneyland...

This is a bet that is about a year and a half old. I made a bet with a scUMmer over the game. scUM wins he get to take a picture of me in his scUM gear. The good guys win I get a picture of him in my Buckeye gear. Obviously I win the bet and get my picture. It turns out he made the same bet...

Last night my wife was trying to get ahead of the housework and picked up my uniform and threw it in the wash while I was taking a shower. Unfortunately my iphone was still in one of the pockets. I figured it was dead and gone and I was screwed. However, I did some research and found some...

I just got back a few days ago from a 15 month deployment to Camp Bucca, Iraq. I had one of the most unusual missions possible. I was the XO for a unit doing detainee operations. We started out running a compound with 1,000 extremist detainees. 500 on one side were Takfiri, and 500 on...

I have recently liberated a red swingline stapler from my commander. Myself and several of my fellow lieutenants are planning on doing a traveling gnome type of thing with it. That is, we want to get pictures of it at different places throughout the world. I set up a myspace account to post the...
