Gosh…

I thought I had made the wrong decision. Now I know I did. I left everything that was my life, and came back to sunny Orange Park, Florida; and for what? I came looking for support, and family; but that’s not what I found. I found a bunch of people who care, but...

I have a phone!!!

Finally, after a week with no phone service and tons of wasted minutes on my mom’s cell trying to find resolution, I finally have a landline, and can connect to the ‘net. It was seriously obnoxious not having one. —– Well, I am still here....

At home, and homesick… huh?

It makes no sense, and does a lot. I got home to Florida on Thursday night, around 8pm EDT. It is now Satuday around 9:30 pm EDT. I have barely been here for 2 days and I just want to leave. I miss Chicago, though not all of it. I miss something, someone. I miss my...

Teeth of the Tiger by Tom Clancy

Well, I must give him some credit. He did do a great job with most of this one. Unfortunately, there are three new character, two of whom have never been presented before. The remaining character is the new generation, but we haven’t really heard about him since...

Red Rabbit by Tom Clancy

Definitely not his best. As a matter of fact, pretty bad. He kept using the same phrases again and again, as if he were cutting and pasting from chapter to chapter. The research was not good enough either. Clancy tries to show the USSR, and specifically Russia, as a...
