I never saw such a place! Uncle Cho’s entreaty to come inside for a taste of his sausage was ignored however…
So here are some random photos from my so-called life this week…
Attended the Change of Command ceremony for the Korean Service Corps commander…
I’d worked closely with the outgoing commander on a couple of cases this year. He was appreciative enough to call out our office as having done a “fine job” during his speech…
I’m a sucker for pomp and circumstance…
My fellow office mates who attended the event…
My commie friend Choonae. Not surprisingly, there is next to nothing we agree on politically. She is vehemently opposed to THAAD deployment and posted on facebook that she “hates the U.S. Army”. I took some offense to that, noting that over 54,000 young Americans had sacrificed their lives to give her the freedom to hate the U.S. Army. She did reassure that it was the Army she hated not the people who work there. When I pressed her as to why she was opposed to a purely defensive anti-ballistic missile deployment, she said it makes China angry and that China is more important to Korea than the USA. I laughed and told her that that makes sense. Korea has been China’s bitch throughout history…
Not sure why I even bother to stay engaged…
I guess I just can’t help caring…
Thank God for chemistry though…
Thursday night we did a farewell event for my Army buddy Steve who will be departing Korea for his next assignment soon. We drank, we ate, and then we drank a little more. Got him back on base before the 0100 curfew so it’s all good. I was floored when I got home.
Fortunately I had the foresight to take Friday off. Despite the stifling heat, I spent some time on Namsan…
Objects in the photo are more distant than they appear…
One step at a time gets the job done…
And I came back for more today…
Tonight I’ll be changing things up by attending a dinner party at the Cassady’s house. The Randolph’s and Rago’s will also be there. It’s been quite some time since I’ve received such an invite to a couple’s centric event. I guess the failure of my marriage makes folks uncomfortable. Hell, it makes ME uncomfortable! Anyway, I’m bringing banana pudding.
And now you know everything I do.
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb.
“korea has been china’s bitch throughout history” china owns 30% of the united states debt. who’s the bitch now? peace out.
Yeah, but if China starts fucking around we can just say…fuck you, we ain’t paying you that money we owe…
if miss liberty doesn’t pay her pimp(china)then said pimp will bitch slap miss liberty. peace out.
Since u mention marriage ending in Korea do you have any experience or knowledge about divorce in Guam for Americans overseas?
Billy, no I don’t anything about Guam divorce. Sorry.
