Last night I had a dream I was slow dancing with Raisa Gorbachev and then she smiled and grab my well-toned, masculine buttocks (well, one buttock really).

That really came out of the blue. Only thing I can think of are the peppers I sprinkled on my pizza last night or the red IPA from Escondido I had with the pizza.

I promise I never had a thing for Raisa Gorbachev. Anyone got any ideas what it means?

It's your fascination with Bebe.

[:D][:D]

Well, you have to admit the young Bebe was quite a handsome fellow. [:)] Even, so I don't see even the slightest resemblance between Bebe Rebozo and Raisa Gorbachev so I think you are not very good at dream analysis. [:)]


It was the damndest thing. I go to a hole in the wall steakhouse where they cut off your tie and nail it to the wall and there is a big picture of Rebozo and Nixon sitting on the same side of the table (not that there is anything wrong with that) having drinks. Then, 5 days later, I'm at El Adobe in San Juan Capistrano and there is Nixon again, but this time with Pat and, of course, she is drinking. Odd, very odd. Clearly there was some force at work to cause me to question my previous assumptions. Things like that just don't happen. That is the same place where that 3 year old clobbered me in the cajones.

Did your pizza have any unusual mushrooms on it?

No, that's the usual level of discourse around here. Sometimes we post about a game we made up.

Got offered a job in Pompey on Tuesday. How can I resist moving so close to all that naval history?

You should take it! You could look at all the tile mosaics on your lunch break.

Well, it does save on toilet paper.

I have been trying to cut down on parentheses, I really have.

No turn yet. Perhaps Rord Admirar Nerson is out collecting Raisa Gorbachev mushrooms with the Havasupai elders?

Even in his dream, he was just praying that she wasn't a 'girl' with big hands...

Just to clarify, that dream with Raisa was not remotely erotic. [:D]

P-47 squadron partially outfitted at Batan Is. We try a sweep over Takao today with its 145 fighters. We order some annoying night raids by B-17's over Takao just to be....well...annoying, I guess.

The pace quickens in Burma. One gets the feeling of a house of cards.

That was Mr. Berle's biggest laugh line at Haha-jima. You are just culturally insular.

***********May 17, 1943(c)***********


Karenko (the town in Formosa, not the guard at the re-education camp in Omsk): Bad, baaaaaaad die roll. It's like we rolled 3 "1's" with dodecahedral dice. It's part of Scenario 2, I think. A guy named Stewart from down under is in charge. He has a naval rating of 83. I'm thinking he had someone take the test for him. He skipped the "Radar is your firend" lecture as well. We just get our Arried asses kicked! Even so, the landing craft are unperturbed.

Night Time Surface Combat, near Karenko at 87,64, Range 5,000 Yards

Japanese Ships
DD Murasame, Shell hits 2
