Ma!!!!

I am exercising while walking to the clubs and restaurants. Plus I LIVE on the second floor, and several classes are on the FIFTH floor, so many stair-stepper sorta things going on.

The statue of Lenin outside my window has no more snow at his feet like he did, so the warm (maybe 37) temps have taken their toll. Supposedly rain in the next few days (poop) but no snow.

How is school coming along? Still learning all sorts of good stuff? Absorbing it all?

School is kick-butt! I've been avionics-specific my whole career, except for general maintenance control and quality assurance as a manager dude. Learning actual engine operation and more in-depth hydraulic systems has been a real kick in the pants.

I can truly say (no matter what my compatriots in Kabul say) that this has been a very productive time.

Plus! they have pretty college aged girls running around. Can't swing a cat to beat that with a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

Or something like that, I may be mixing metaphors. Or hyperbolies...I can't remember.

Well....as long as you are getting your studies done before playing, and you are getting your exercise. LOL!!

Sounds like you may be experiencing some of those, “oh, now I see how that works”, moments.

Have you heard anything about your helos at the fat farm? Will you both get home about the same time?

Sounds like you are learning things trhat used to be donew as part of the AIMD process. Most of the US Navy has gone to an “O” to OEM Depot for repairs.
