Prague is really beautiful!
And it looks like a good time could be had-if I was free to explore it…………. There are indications of some really primo nightlife it seems. Not that I am going to see any of it. Have seen plenty of...

Time for this one to go home! Albeit-more than a little sadly. One of the things I marvel about, in an age of jet air travel, is how I can wake up in a vibrant city like Munich, and then 18 hours later...

I thought it was going to be like sliding down a greased rope to go home. I was wrong. Actually getting out of Munich worked fine. The hotel we had chosen was right above the S-bahn stop of S-8, the...

Food post
I did more eating than I should have this trip. (Also consumed copious amounts of my favorite food group-beer). Dinners on these trips with the S.O. are always an event I kind of dread-not because I...

While I was gone, my Amazon order came! (It was supposed to have been here before we left). Besides buying this book: Which I have been meaning to read for a while now-and has applicability to the...

Prague
While I thoroughly loved Vienna and am ready to go back-Prague had to be the highlight of the trip. It started with dinner the night we arrived: Our hotel had a wine restaurant in the basement-some...

Oh why not?
Look at babes. I’m rooting for Navy too! Maybe watch the game on a big TV with one of these on the end table? And at half time-compare notes with a new friend:

All is right with the world
Navy won and Alabama lost. Life is good-and it will be especially fun to see the chagrined faces on Monday morning at work. Where I live, it is considered a sacrilege not to worship at the altar of SEC...

December 7, 1941
Can’t forget this day. Especially when December 7 2008 is also a Sunday. Plenty of words to describe it-I’d prefer to let one picture talk: We honor their memory!

I mean, my dues to the association are paid up. The dues to the US Naval Institute are paid up, that it is. Yet, once again yours truly gets slighted-so that they can promote the work of some other...

For the most part, I have been impressed with the cabinet appointments President Elect Obama has made. His more liberal supporters are disappointed he did not appoint Kool-aid drinkers, but by seeking...

The appointment of Gen Shinseki to be VA Secretary that is. I have no doubt that he will do a good job as VA Secretary, but I’m not reading into it the same kind of political vindictiveness that most...

Some different pictures from our trip. Suffice it to say I kept my eye out for something more than a little out of the ordinary. For example I stumbled across this dog, taking a drink from a fountain:...
