the first day of spring

Well, it seems so promising, but.... right now it is snowing and the ground is white. I thought about just getting off the hill, but after a short drive I found it better to sit this one out. It should be better later today...

another war for oil...

be all you can be...

Seems that the military has a problem, it has been now revelaed that an Army 'Kill Team" took pictures of their victims and collected 'trophies' of their kills... seems that the United States military has a bigger problem....here is another article by the Guardian... is the culture of war that is executed by the video game generation the problem?
