5 points to those who guessed where this picture was taken. Send me an e-mail to ralphlion2002@yahoo.com to see if you're right. I'll answer each e-mail I receive.

I guess the question to ask is "Where's Dave"? I can honestly say I don't know. We haven't been in contact for some time now. He's been busy growing a business while I have been busy growing a new "post-military" skill set. That is one in which I am not pursuing a career using the skills that I learned in the military. I think there will be plenty average-ness to fill the ranks of the Government personnel system without adding my attitude to the pile. Besides, no one "axed" me to join that "supposibly" lofty institution. Just kidding. When I'm ready to milk the system I'll jump in with both feet. Until then I'm okay with the morons weeding themselves out of the real work force along with our politicians...neither of whom have a real job. It's the falibility of people that requires them to be led because at heart we vacillate about being couch potatoes or genius businessmen. (I owe that thought to Alan Greenspan, b-t-w). Anyway, Dave - if you get this, shoot me an e-mail. All the rest, send me some ideas to chat about.
