Butterbar no more

just a quick shout out to our sole 2nd lt who just got promoted a couple of days ago. the lowest ranking officer has one gold bar on his collar and so it's called a butterbar and now we don't have one anymore. poor kid was the squadron bitch and got assigned all the mini taskers that other officers did not really want to do. things like designing tshirts and fundraising and all that jazz. but he's a sport and took it all in stride. not too much changed, though, since now he's still the junior ranking officer. at least he gets a pay raise. here's to you, sculls, or should i say, 1st lt scully.

we had a fairly nasty sand storm the other day and i took some pics so hopefully they turned out ok and i'll post as soon as i can start downloading. nice new camera from home, but they forgot the cable...heheheh...oh well...it'll come soon enough! about to start giving another round of shots so this time i'm getting the straws ready so that i can tell these guys to suck it up once they start crying and whining again. bunch of wimps.

oops, bus to work is about to leave so i'm out. stupid slow internet. pops, thanks for the answering machine and the alarm clock! you are awesome!
