And of course, it has to be the New Testament. Awesome Trijicon, just awesome! Send our soldiers into a radicalized country with biblical verses on the rifle sights! Perfect!!!

Trijicon "has a $660 million multi-year contract to provide up to 800,000 sights to the Marine Corps." The military has strict rules banning the proselytizing of any religion in Iraq and Afghanistan. Air Force Maj. John Redfield, a spokesman for U.S. Central Command, initially defended Trijicon, saying, ""This situation is not unlike the situation with US currency . Are we going to stop using money

I'm going back to work tomorrow, so naturally I can't help but reflect on the last two weeks. And, what awaits me. I'll be honest with you, 2010 fills me with a sense of euphoria. Just saying the year "Twenty Ten", sounds so futuristic and so chock full of potential, that a self professed comic book geek such as myself can't help but feel energized, awake, and alert to the prospect of flying cars and holodecks...but I digress! The last two weeks have been EXACTLY what I've needed. As my friends and co-workers will tell you, I very rarely take any vacation. Not because I don't need it, but because I always think about what's waiting for me when I get back to work. Negative, I know but that's just the way my mind works. I never really think about the positive outcome of anything. Just the negative; that way, I'm pleasantly surprised when things turn out well. Anywho, this particular vacation was nothing like I thought it would be; it

Happy New Year, everyone! A longer entry will follow, but for now I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year and I want to thank Chris, Lilly, Darius, Kyra and Liam Weathers of Brandon, Florida for allowing me to spend the holidays with them. I love you guys! -Remember, George: no man is a failure who has friends--Clarence (in book inscription). "It's a Wonderful Life". 2010 babe!
