Stealth Bomber Lays Waste…

Bomber

Stealth Bomber For one year, I had the absolute pleasure of serving the U.S. Air Force at R.A.F. Lakenheath in England. Not as an Airman though, I was a contracted barber. Making sure the Airmen and government service workers looked good and keeping their hair up to regulations was one of the best jobs I’ve …

Flipping My Lid

Lid

Flipping my Lid Describing me as a high strung individual, is a fairly accurate description. I tend to move about pretty quickly. Most of the time, I run around in what you might call, a state of panic. Unless I sit down, then I instantly pass out. During the day, I often feel as if the …

Burning Desire

Burning

Burning Desire I’m not sure who thought wood-burning would make a good class in middle school but I sure jumped at the chance. It beat sitting through another one of those other classes, like math. Yuck! Besides, what preteen boy would pass up essentially turning wood into charcoal? What to Create? Before the teacher allowed us …

Shift Gears in a Sticky Situation

Shift

Shift Gears in a Sticky Situation I’ve heard that you have to shift gears when something goes wrong. But this was ridiculous. Before enlisting in the Army, I lived in Germany.

An Arresting Adventure

Adventure

An Arresting Adventure My wife and I dated for a very short period of time before we tied the knot. During this courting period, we tried to spend as much time together as possible. It was an adventure for sure. Yes, it was that kind of love that makes everyone sick. You know, because we still …

Crappy Day in the Library

Library

Crappy Day in the Library Grade school had its challenges for most people, but for me, it was especially difficult. My level of awkwardness out-shown all of the other students. It seemed as if there were only two or three kids at a time that were willing to associate themselves with me or call me …

Bike vs Boy

Bike

Bike vs Boy Walking to and from school was always an adventure. My family lived in a military housing neighborhood that was quite a distance from the school. In order to get to there, we had to walk through our area as well as another entire neighborhood. If I were to go back to that …

Surviving the First Year of Marriage

Marriage

Surviving the First Year of Marriage They say that the first year of marriage is the hardest. If you can make it through, it’s all downhill from there. This statement might be true, because we definitely had some issues during our first year. It probably didn’t help that we only knew each other for about …
