... spent a lot of time in the air and always gobsmacked when over the Alps, and Niagara Falls, and there was this one time coming into SeaTac that was one of the most beautiful moments I can recall. But of course it was fleeting as the entire point is about getting to work.

It is at work in snow swept Kansas where I'm on site with a programmer. It's he who tells me of this Navy - Marine thing. Exactly the story he told me is how he played the game called "Let's You and Him Fight". This involves getting a Marine and a Navy guy into a fight, and tipping off the MPs at the door as he exits.

January 30 is the day The Beatles held their rooftop concert.


That's truly difficult to tell for me with any precision. My older (older by 11 years) sister is likely involved. She was keen on going to record parties. She wrote her name on her Beatles album, I suppose so she would know which was hers at the party. She gave me that album when she got bored with it. Which was, like, immediately.

Yet impossible to place, really, because it feels now like the Beatles were everywhere. Absolutely everyone, love The Beatles or hate The Beatles, were talking about them. My sister had already taught me The Twist. By 63, the radio and I were fast friends. "... and a Japanese transistor radio ..."

I lost mine down a hole in, oh I can't tell you that, with my mini bottle of tobascco sauce. Wish I had them back. Sauce was great with the C-Rats chocolate disc!

When I was an active Marine, fifty years ago, the only way I would get mad at a Corpsman was if he stole my C-Rat peaches. Other than that, Doc always got a pass. That of course, applies to grunt docs. Some of the ones at Balboa were total clavicles.

Mmmm... peaches!



Once cannot invoke peaches AND rats and not expect this!
