    Child in danger signal

    Came across something I wasn’t aware of. Do you know the “I’m in trouble and need help” signal? It may be used when the victim is too frightened or unable to speak aloud. The thumb is folded into the palm and the fingers repeatedly and rapidly close and open over the fingers. The victim may try...

    West Point cheating

    Turns out 51 of the cadets caught cheating will be allowed to remain at the academy, make up the work, and graduate. When and where will the lowering of standards end? This is disgusting.

    To All Our Vets...

    VP-28 and VP-4 out of Barbers Point. Watched and interesting video yesterday about the ditching of a Charlie in '78 (?). Heard about the event back then but never the details. Until then it was the only successful ditching of a P-3 - in 20 foot seas and 40 knot winds no less. Faulty maintenance...

    To All Our Vets...

    Met a fellow VP aircrewman at a restaurant last evening. He. served a few years before me in one of the squadrons based on Oahu. We got to swapping experiences, places, events to a small group that had gathered around. Guess we might have closed the place down if those we were with hadn't...

    To All Our Vets...

    Everyone have an outstanding day. Get up. Get out. Wear your colors with pride. Be recognized and accept the appreciation many will offer. A bit slow, myself, just coming out of spinal surgery, but will still don my ‘running through the jungle’ hat and a new shirt I’ve just purchased showing...

    Rats

    Our Alaska cruise in August has been cancelled by the cruise line. Now seeking alternatives. Thinking maybe the long awaited visit to DC. Anyone aware of how the virus thing is affecting that?

    It's time

    Having to put my buddy down this afternoon. Had the fur ball for 15 years after rescuing him from an apartment complex. Kidney failure. It's killing me.

    It's time.

    Unfortunately, my riding and probably any motor vehicle operation, days are coming to an end, and much sooner than I would like. Suffered retina detachment in one eye, twice, which has left that eye essentially blind. Then the other eye began experiencing blurring problems to the extent I...

    a question I probaly should not ask

    First, let me make it clear that I have never used illegal drugs, nor ever smoked marijuana. Having had to deal with a hypocondirac (maybe I spelled that right) mother put me off most pills. I have to be forced. But seven years ago I suffered an injury resulting in pain that has never stopped in...

    To All Our Vets...

    Possibly earlier than that. Burns, in his Vietnam documentary, states that Ho Chi Mein wrote a letter to Truman asking for aid which was never delivered by the CIA. This was at the height of the Red Scare and McCarthy. My opinion is the whole damn mess could have been avoided.

    Thailand

    Wife and I are trying to recover from a visit to Thailand. Visited there myself for R&R back during 'The War'. Stayed in Bangkok and Phuket. Bangkok has changed tremendously and now has around seven million people. Out of that seven million there has to be four million riding the small Chinese...

    Bluebonnets and other wildflowers

    Just reading the 2019 bloom report. In the Texas hill country this year looks to be the best bloom in ten years. Early, too. Looking at late March into early April. Already packing. Bloom line has reached San Antonio, and read another report saying Marble Falls had blooms. The pear trees here...
