When I come back like Jordan wearing the 45, it ain't to play games with you.


Greetings,

Nearly two years after my last post, I feel ready to try again. Why now? I am motivated and finally ready to start expressing myself again. I am inspired by others (see Mike Taylor in action) and I know I am selling myself short by not relaying and reflecting on my surreal life.

The irony is that I stopped on account of that same surrealism. Mostly, I didn't feel like writing after most Iraq experiences. A blog didn't feel right and I couldn't summon the words. But I'm willing to try again. I leave in three weeks and want to remember as much as I can aside from the most impressing images.

Fantastic weekend just had, consisting of Company Golf Tournament and the First Annual Dan Feehan Pentathlon. Video attached is a Sergeant of mine in Happy Gilmore Mockery on the golf course. Pic attached is the final event of the pentathlon, Texas Hold 'Em, in its most heated throws.

While I remember,

Check out this article re: NOLA and the NBA All-star Weekend

I love Bill Simmons and find him the only decent ESPN writer, but what I love more is how this article re-affirms an old belief of mine: The National Basketball Association will unite the world through sport. It is the definition of globalization done right, of maximizing product, and of continuing innovation without drastic change. LeBron=World Peace.



A modest renewal of this forum, but I promise more to come.

Peace, and much love to you.

Danimal! Glad to see you are back on the blog circuit. At last I can refresh this page hourly in hopes of an update.

That article was excellent, and I totally agree about the NBA and its positivity. I think the NHL should sponsor the 2009 Don Cherry and Barry Melrose New Orleans All Star Charity Weekend. It would be heartwarming, hilarious, and up to 1,000 people outside of New Orleans would take notice and appreciate the positive impact of hockey on America.

Back to work.
