Soldier’s Magazine
Pretty happy - Soldiers Magazine used one of my photos for a two page layout dedicated to operations going on in Afghanistan. Too cool. While it’s not something you can easily pick up at the newsstand, the mag does have a circulation of around half a million. Too Cool.
The photo can be found in the January 2009 Soldiers Magazine Almanac. You can grab a digital copy of it HERE. Careful - it’s about 7 meg.
New Blogz
Hey folks - I’ve offended most of my regular readers with my “old people” post - so I thought I might let you know I’m working on a new project over HERE.
I think my WOW stuff will there and my IRL stuff will live here.

Man you fuckers are all old….
Chalk that up as the first thing I thought when people I remember from high-school started showing up on my Facebook site. I’m new to the whole non-blog social networking thing so I actually had to have one of the younger sergeants in my section sit down and explain it all to me. As he motored through the complexities of friend lists and walls and how to “poke” people, I kept dragging myself back to the veritable wave of these earnest and mature looking faces from my past that had shown up on my virtual doorstep.
Man…look how much they’ve changed - they’re so sober and stolid and …old…..
“Yeah - and have you looked at yourself lately Mr. Stand-in-model-for-male-pattern-baldness?”
Shut up - we’re talking about all of those *other* old people right now.
“Right…”
But srsly they’re *old* - they have crows feet, gray hair and are all wearing ties and shit.
“So do you, dummy….”
The hell you say - I wear no ties - and I know l33t h@xx0r sp3ak - I say srlsy for Christs-sake.
“And this is indicative of what - exactly?”
I have no idea - but it’s weird and it’s skrewing with that part of me that still thinks I’m a twenty-year old penis with legs.
“Nothing new there…”
I suppose - less hair going on now though.
“Checked your back lately?”
Keep it up - I’m going to stab you in the fucking eye.
“Do it - then you’ll need glasses too - or a *patch* - wouldn’t that be hawt on yer egg-head.”
I’m going to need a few days to sort out how I feel about all of this. Otherwise - Facebook is neat in a vouyeristic kinda way. That and it’s a great way for people to keep in touch - even if it’s an erratic twittering kind of touch. But that seems to be what people are after these days….
“Wow - didn’t you used to date her?”
/facepalm….
This is going to take some getting used to….
It was a Dark and Stormy Night
I woke with a start…a touch, cold, unexpected and filled with intent had traced its way down my collective subconscious. I twist about in my sleeping bag and look quickly around the inside of our troop-bay. My buddies are asleep - silent save for the gentle whalesong of their snores. What was it? We’re safe - there are no alert sirens, no incoming rockets. Then I see it, the spectral glow of my laptop’s lcd. I look closer - it’s a blog page - a WoW blog page….
Ah hah…
“Somebody is talking about me ON THE INTERNET!”
