It’s Been Fun
If the scheduler function functions the way it ought, you’re reading this as I begin the mind-numbing process of getting my ranty ass back to Afghanistan, or The Suck, as I call it with such shallow and unfelt affection.
I’m reminded from this experience that the task of a daily blurb of entertainment for all of you is a challenge, but as always, the crafting of the words is truly only half the fun. The comments, as always, provide the other fifty percent, and only you out there reading this can do that. Speaking of, you’ll understand if my comment replies are a bit delayed. I blame the Air Force.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, MR. LISTA DE EMAILS WOULD YOU JUST LET IT GO??? FUUUUUUUCK!
– – – End Paid Non-Political Rant – – –
Sorry, it’s a full-time job keeping up with Senor de Email and his hyperactive army of zombie bot computers. Of course, if the WordPress filters worked as advertised, you’d never hear me bitch. Hint. Nudge.
So I’ve re-included the funky little egg-timer thingy widget on my homepage to let you track when I arrive home, which is sometime in very early May. I’d love to tell you that I’ll take up the challenge of daily posts when I do, but alas I cannot make that promise. I’ll have some challenging things ahead of me upon return, and of course getting reintegrated back into my on-hold-for-a-year Army job.
Stay Ranty, my friends!

Stay safe, B.R., and hurry back super-soon from the suck-dome of the world. Hoping you have some time to stay in contact with us all while you’re over there helping the world while most of the world doesn’t want our help other than cash. Bet your looking forward to more pre-packaged meals, yum. 🙂

I have a couple posts that are sure to offend someone.
February 28, 2013 at 10:20
It will be good to see you whenever you turn up, Rants.
And remember folks, he doesn’t always rant, but when he does…Oh, who the hell am I kidding…
February 28, 2013 at 15:01
Yes I do!
February 28, 2013 at 10:43
Be safe! Just to piss off the masses…eat that ham hock thingie and fart your way back to grabassistan!
February 28, 2013 at 15:04
I’m working on that as I type…
February 28, 2013 at 18:29
Serve them proud!!! Actually, just blame it on the guy next to you!
March 2, 2013 at 00:30
That technique was supposed to be a secret.
February 28, 2013 at 11:22
WHAAAH!!!
February 28, 2013 at 15:04
Oh there’s still fun to be had!
February 28, 2013 at 16:13
Safe journeys, friend!
…and do check in “live” when ya get there, wherever “there” is supposed to be. (Saturday? Sunday? a week from next Tuesday? – Oh, I hope not) 🙂
March 2, 2013 at 00:29
Thanks!
February 28, 2013 at 16:28
It seems I never come a-visitin, but when you’re headed back out. Stay safe, and God bless.
March 2, 2013 at 00:29
Thank you, I will.
February 28, 2013 at 17:40
May the force of the bacon be with you!!
And may you keep from losing your ALL of what sanity you have while in transit back to The Suck.
All hail the final countdown and the safe return of Brainrants to full-time state-side rantiness…
March 2, 2013 at 00:30
Doing fine so far… in Kuwait…
February 28, 2013 at 18:31
I hope everything works out okay for you, Rants! (you KNOW you will be missed – a lot!) Please stay safe.
March 2, 2013 at 00:30
Oh I’ll be back.
February 28, 2013 at 19:52
I salute you, sir (raises her smoked ham hock). Stay safe.
March 2, 2013 at 00:31
Returns with a slab of bacon…
February 28, 2013 at 20:35
Well, look at it this way. You get to miss the BS of sequesters, a new Pope, and whatever other idiocies the next three months have to bring. (Yes, I realise you’ll have your OWN little sets of BS to deal with. 😉 )
Keep your powder dry, your head down, and your butt safe, not necessarily in that order. Don’t worry about the entertainment front, I’ll get off my fat ass and take up the slack. It’s the least I can do, sir. :p 😀
March 2, 2013 at 00:31
Thanks, John.
February 28, 2013 at 23:35
Oh Rants, I’ll miss you! I have loved your daily contributions to the blogosphere. Stay safe! Keep your feet dry & clean.
March 2, 2013 at 00:33
That is a challenge (feet), but I’ll try.
March 2, 2013 at 01:22
Well, I guess if you have to have super stinky feet, it’s better you do it in the Suck!
March 2, 2013 at 01:34
True ‘dat.
March 2, 2013 at 01:44
That was a quick reply – you must be on the net right now. On your way back to the Suck?
March 2, 2013 at 01:58
Yes, I’m in Kuwait. It’s day here. Ugh.
March 2, 2013 at 02:07
Are you stuck there for a while or do you move on to the Suck today?
March 2, 2013 at 19:32
In a few hours now.
March 1, 2013 at 01:22
Keep the Rants coming from your tour. Be well!
March 2, 2013 at 00:32
I will, and try to twitter.
March 2, 2013 at 15:09
Ugh…and here I thought the tour was over. Best wishes,stay well…as well as you can, anyways.
March 2, 2013 at 19:35
It’s damn near over.
March 4, 2013 at 09:16
So glad that you’ll be back stateside soon. We’ll keep the beer cold for your glorious return!
March 4, 2013 at 19:47
I’ll be happy with ‘return,’ sans ‘glorious.’
May 19, 2013 at 23:13
Howdy! I simply would like to give you a big thumbs up for the excellent information you’ve got right here on this post. I am coming back to your site for more soon.
May 20, 2013 at 05:16
Thanks, and I think you’re a spambot.
May 30, 2013 at 06:25
WOW just what I was looking for. Came here by searching for anthropomorphism
