Just a quick bump for the forums. For those of you that have followed The Abominable Charles Christopher, and even more for those of you that see this and have not checked it out, the story has advanced quite a bit and has gripped me even more. I hope you'll check it out.
[quote]Since the blogrolls on the old site weren't stored in any uniform way (you could put just about anything in that section, folks had videos and photos in there) they couldn't be imported to the new site. You'll have to recreate the list via the dashboard. Glad you like the changes! [/quote] Thanks! Yeah, I was one of the people that had a pic in the sidebar previously, so I guess I'm partly responsible. HAHA!
I don't really have the right to be surprised at the changes to JU. I haven't regularly blogged here in FOREVER and rarely stop by to check in on anything. But I was pleasantly surprised by the changes to JU. It looks great and all the new tools are awesome. I don't know that this will be enough to bring me back regularly but it is nice to see the improvements! One question that I didn't search very hard for an answer - is there a way to import your old
Well, it looks like I spoke too soon. HAHA! Turns out the roster for the trip to Korea was locked a couple days before we tried to make the change. So now, my boss is going to have to skip out of the training that conflicts with this trip and he'll get to go to Korea anyway. Oh, well. I did plan to take leave before the trip and have decided to take it anyways. Now, my wife and I are thinking about her taking a little time off and doing
Well, my boss stopped by today to let me know that he was looking at me for the next immersion trip to Korea. He was actually slated to go but some scheduling conflict has come up and it looks like I'll be getting the nod! This will be similar to last year's trip. I'll take a group of students from our school over to Korea and study with them at a Korean un
Still working my way through LICD. Really funny but I've still got over four years of strips to catch up on. New TACC went up after I got home from work last night. Another pricelessly funny strip! Sissy Skunk is awesome!
I made it through about half of the LFG archive and was entertained. Richard is a very funny character. I didn't make it through nearly as many Least I Could Do comics since that archive goes so much farther back. But, I agree, it is very funny. I'll be spending more time there in the near future reading the archive. Also, don't forget! Today is the weekly update for The Abominable Charles Christopher!
Thanks. Good to be back. I'll probably try to leave my webcomic post at the top of my blog a little while longer and maybe post something new later today or tomorrow. I really hope people go check that comic out. It really is a good one.
I think I've seen those before but never bookmarked them. I checked out the newest comic on each and now have them all here in the comments section so I can go back when I have some time and check them out some more. Thanks!
I've always enjoyed reading comics, whether they were the funny pages in the newspaper or the monthly Superman comic books. That hasn't changed with my discovery of webcomics. I mostly read "gaming" webcomics and check them on their normal update days, like Penny Arcade , <a href="http://www.
A starter comment to get this on the forums. Might as well get this circulating! Also, I deleted about 100 old posts a couple days ago to clean up my blog. Figured if anyone wanted to go back and check out older stuff, they shouldn't have to wade through Korean vocabulary quizzes and fantasy sports updates.
Well, it's been a while. Last time I posted anything, I was in Korea. Since I've been back, I've had funeral detail twice and I've gone down to NTC to serve as an augmentee O/C twice. It's been pretty hectic and busy, but I'd be lying if I claimed that was the reason for my absence. Mostly, I've just not had the blogging bug in me at all, really. I still don't re
Well, the third week of our trip has come and gone. We have less than a week left before we return to California. This last week, we'll be taking one more weekly quiz, finishing up our interview projects, taking an end of course test, and then having our closing ceremony on Friday. One night this week, we'll likely go out with our instructors for dinner and maybe s
Okidoki, we had another field trip today. And a visit to a Korean company yesterday. On Fridays, we do task based activities. Last week, we went to the museums and had to get pictures of certain things and be able to explain in Korean what they were when we got back to class to the other team. Yesterday, we went to two Korean companies and got a guided t
Okidoki. Looks like I got the main post fixed. Woohoo!
HAHA! I couldn't proof this post after I posted it. Joeuser was loading slowly from my connection this morning and I had to go to school but apparently, I didn't post it so that the pictures would load up. I'll try to fix that.
OK, now that I've found a few places I can go to connect with my laptop, I can upload and show some pics from the trip so far. Last Friday, we had an assignment to go to two museums and find some things. One group went to the War Memorial and my group went to the Korean National Museum. I really wanted to go to the War Memorial, but that's mostly because I've been there a number of times before and figured the assignment would be easy for me to complete. HAHA! The National Museum wa
Can I have a cooler title than Military Language Instructor? I feel so left out with a title that is spot on with what I do...
Are they sending KP linguists who are slated to go to Korea on their first assignment to Korea for language immersion? The students still don't know where they are going at this point. Some of them are air, though, and will be headed Okinawa, at best. The ground linguists will likely end up at Osan, t
Hmmmm... pics, I'll have to see what I can do about that. Maybe I'll hit Starbucks tomorrow and ask about their wireless there. When I went the other day, they had a sign up about wifi, but I couldn't connect. I wasn't staying long, so I didn't ask if I needed a log in or anything though.
Just a quick note. I am in Korea. I'm living in probably the least wireless accessable area of the capital of one of the most wired nations in the world. HAHA! Oh well, I'm having fun with all the studies and the other students that came with me. I'll update more later when I can jack a signal and I have more time. Just working on some coffee and watching the pa
The impetus for the article was from a loved one getting this ridiculous "advice" from a chiropractor abusing their perceived authority as a health care professional. It scares the hell out of me that a family member is being cared for by someone with these beliefs. That was actually my first guess. Bu
Wow! Nice read. Sometimes, I get a laugh thinking of you surfing the net looking for something to seet you off. HAHA! Or did you recently visit a chiropractor and get a talking to for having a smallpox scar on your arm? HAHA!
Why bother going then? Well the phrasing was that we could drink if we were in a situation where not drinking would be considered rude... and we are cautioned to sip. The main point is not to send a bunch of TRADOC governed trainees to Korea to get ripped on kettles. As for me, I'm failry c
HAHA! Welcome back to my world. I'm probably testing the waters to be taken off your side bar! I've actually been playing around with the idea of putting together a book. I'll be heading to Korea in a couple of weeks for a month to attend a school while herding nine cats, I mean students, and with the very restrictive rules (no alcohal, being one of them) I have to live by and enforce, I'll have plenty of time to bang out some writing on a
