Feel free to pull out your trusty fly swatter and comment on what is posted here, realizing that this odd collection of writers may prove as difficult to kill as houseflies and are presumably just as pesky. “Desperate Houseflies” is a magazine that intends to publish weekly articles on subjects such as politics, literature, history, sports, photography, religion, and no telling what else. We’ll see what happens.
It is supposed to be the coldest night of the year tonight in Ocean Springs, though that only means lows in the upper 20s. Still, it has me dreaming of blue skies & baseball.
This picture is from Ameriquest field in Arlington on a hot summer's day in 2004.

Here’s a shameless plug…
I met a good friend while deployed to Kyrgyzstan. He’s an impressive young fellow. His family owns a fancy little steak joint in Seattle, and collaborated with a not-so-small coffee joint for the best cup of joe I’ve ever had.
Anyhoo … My friend is striking out on his own outside of his family business. He chose pictures over steaks.
I’m especially proud of his work on our deployment—lots of good memories.

How cool!!!
(And glad to see everyone clothed during the poker game.)
Capt M -- I really enjoyed my deployed time. I was the PA Bubba, and my buddy's photo talent came in quite handy. (Our resident contractors responsible for photography had an "interesting" work ethic. Most of Brian's K-stan pics were taken for our public affairs effort as a favor.)
The a/c you spotted summed up our purpose for being. 135s gassed up the dudes killing Taliban, the MD-11's brought them in from the states and C-130s (and 17s) took them the rest of the way.
Our wing king was a C-130 dude. You don't know Brad Pray do you?
All the best,
