Was just thinking today that I don't ever recall a single instance of a congressman reporting, "This guy tried to bribe me". I find that odd, because it certainly happens all the time. There are all sorts of politicians that get charged with accepting bribes, including US congressmen but I can't recall of anyone ever convicted of trying to bribe a congressman because the congressman reported it to the authorities.

Why is that? 

We know for certain it happens, as a senator and VP biden made himself rich selling out this country, so do we just not have any honest politicians who would report that crime? It would be super easy to do as well, yet it never happens that they report it happening. You can't honestly think it doesn't happen and cannot easily be connected to those in congress amassing wealth far in excess of what their salary provides.

Hmmmm.

I just finished reviewing 6 different spirits and I have to admit that I'm feeling a little happy. This both surprises me and dismays me. Even though some were a higher proof than I usually review it both surprises me and dismays me. It used to take a whole lot more than this to even make me feel it. I remember when I was a fresh E3 and the E6s in the barracks tried to drink me under the table. They were the ones that ended up under that table. My metabolism at that time was measured in super speed. Normally, the amount I consume when doing my spirits reviews is not enough for me to even notice. Age has caught up with me. This time I noticed.  I'm no where near drunk, just a little happy. It still takes a lot more to get me drunk and I've not been drunk for the last 30 years. I miss the days when I could drink all I wanted and clear it out of my system at super speed.

I wanted to let people that knew him from the Armory that Flesh Wound passed away yesterday.

He had a heart attack on July 3rd and was in hospitals and care facilities trying to get well enough to go home, but his heart was just too damaged and he just kept getting worse.  Yesterday his wife (his two year anniversary was in November) made the difficult decision to let him go.

He will be missed.
