Argghhh! (no, it's not "talk like a pirate" day)

    By Jack Grant

John of Argghhh! has posted some quotes from the circles of military staff Hell in celebration of his "blogiversary". Go visit and help him celebrate!

My favorites from his list are:

Cynicism is the smoke that rises from the ashes of burned out dreams.

His knowledge on that topic is only power point deep...

You can get drunk enough to do most anything, but you have to realize going in that there are some things that, once you sober up and realize what you have done, will lead you to either grab a 12-gauge or stay drunk for the rest of your life

Once you accept that a dog is a dog, you can't get upset when it barks.

Vision without funding is hallucination.


It's amazing the wisdom that is spoken during high stress situations...

Random Fate - latest posts


We don't handle randomness well.
   -Dr. Lucy Jones



Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.


What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)


Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
   -Dandemis


Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
-John Donovan, 12 May 2004
