In a rare moment of not-being-fucked, one of my sergeants got me off the detail today because I was on CQ last night.
Whew, feels good to not be fucked over.
Finished Mass Effect 2, with 0 casualties on the "suicide mission". Fuck suicide mission, that was a homicide mission.

Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyYeah, that was a bummer. I thought it was going to be one of those name-with-most-votes things. I noticed I was completely out of ideas once I'd exhausted all the science fiction ship names I could recall. Limited reference pool.

Here: have a list of some
from The Culture. None of which, I believe, Goodyear would find worthy.
We were really close with the ISS module, until Stephen Colbert started campaigning to have it named after him.
It was one of the only times I've ever been angry at the man.
If you meet me have some courtesy, have some sympathy, have some taste. Use all your well-learned politesse or I'll lay your soul to waste.Hey you want those callouses. They protect your foot. Its your socks and overly stiff foot wear that are largely responsible for blisters. Use a little saddle soap on the leather to improve the foot wears pliability and help break it in faster. Until then wear thicker then usual socks.
Who watches the watchmen?Thanks for the tip. Double-socked today, so the pain's bearable, but I still need to wait for the existing blisters to heal. Wish I could develop calluses in a week, though. Don't exactly have the luxury of time.

Not a substitute for a formal medical consultation.Make sure you pad the blisters with mole skin if you can. If you have to, use a broken in pair of boots until the blisters heal. Once they heal the areas should be tougher and less prone to problems from the blisters. Work the leather by hand flexing what parts you need and squeezing the leather and pushing out from the inside for about 15 minutes. It might help you out. It worked on some of my foot wear.

I suspect they find each other because they can easily hear each other over everyone else.
Fresh-eyed movie blogI have had my puppy for less than a week and already she listens and behaves better than my son...
I named her Vasquez. She knocked down the puppy gate the first day. So I reinforced it. She figured out how to make the gate lean on the tension rods I put in front of it to pop a corner out and free herself. I am impressed.
Housebreaking is coming along well. She's getting there. Mostly it's just trying to accommodate her still developing system. But that's not bad either. Teething is not too bad of an issue now but I am watching her like a hawk lest she tire of her toys and teething sticks and go for cables and fruiniture. She's quiet, comes on command, and is learning her name well.
I got pretty lucky. We're getting a good foundation laid.

Though I wouldn't have given her that name.

@Tuefel:You just nailed the problem my job has right on the head. Everybody wants the quality but nobody wants to pay for it. We're going nuts trying to satisfy that difference.
