Today is technically the last day of my work contract. I am done. Maybe I do not rise to the level of this, but it certainly seems appropriate. Last couple of weeks have been a bit hectic and strange, but the astrological projections for the next few days look good as Mars will start to [...]

Today was one of those days that was remarkable, but yet very subtle; passing without fanfare or little notice other than platitudinous comments of, “oh, that’s interesting … ” Today was in fact the day that I replaced my passport. My previous passport was issued in February of 2000 and I still remember the day [...]

A special friend visiting from the other side of the Atlantic comes bearing gifts and a wave of excitement for coming plans.
Productivity, Lack There Of

This has been a terrible week in terms of productivity. It is rather disturbing and I am not entirely sure what the issue is. Well, that’s a lie. I know exactly what the issue is. I’m stuck between two worlds and to fully cross over to the new, fun I want to be in I [...]

So Monday was a wash in terms of getting any significant after action report done. Sunday was a lot more physically taxing than I expected so Monday was relegated to a recovery day. Take home message: if you want to run with the Big Dogs, you need to get off the d*mn porch more often! [...]

Called it a night just about 9pm (that’s only 12 hours on our feet). Cops get an A- and the demonstrators get a D+ for the day. Will give a full recap tomorrow, suffice to say that the cops sliced and diced like a brand new Ginsu. Hot sheet gallery for the afternoon and evening [...]

Just a quick post. Taking a break to refresh and try and get some pics up. Weather is wet wet wet. Started at the National Museum where there was a really nice stage show. Left the Museum just in time attach to a small band of radicals marching down the street. Hooked on to them [...]

Sunday the 15th of March is National Day, celebrating the failed attempt of the Hungarian 1848 revolution against the Hapsburgs. It is also National Riot Day. I will be in the mix, twittering and shooting pics.
Abduction

I was in the living room, my Coach was in the kitchen. I head the buzzer ring and Coach going to open the door. There were sounds of a scuffle and then a dull, wet thud. I jumped up from my desk and ran to the door just in time to see two masked figures [...]
