Yup, I thought something must be wrong when all of a sudden I stopped getting any comments at all. Even the SPAM stopped
The more I thought about it the more I realized that I had to have screwed something up worse than usual. A bit of testing and I found that [...]

Sorry for not posting lately, but I can’t seem to find the energy. Life has lots of stuff going on behind the scenes, but I expect to be back up and running right soon.

I haven’t been exactly the picture of perfection when it comes to sleeping lately. Sure, there’s several reasons for this, but the outcome was that I sat down on the couch tonight at about 2000 hours (that’s 8:00 PM civilian) and was out like a light for several hours. The computer was still [...]

OK, the part about the rifle will come in a later post, but this part is getting to me. I finally dug out my .22 rifle and figured out how to clean the action :thumb: !
What I didn’t know was that the Break Free CLP spray cleaner that was soaked into a [...]

So yeah, I like to use smilies - got a problem with that ? There’s a whole bunch I use on F-16.net that I didn’t have on my blog and wanted, so I finally figured out how to use ‘em over here .
Below the fold is a list of all the smilies [...]

OK, I’ve been a bit slow in posting - and I apologize to the loyal readers I’m sure are out there ! Aviation Nation took a whole lot out of me and I’ve been working on getting the images from the digital camera tweaked just right (rotate to level, crop to make it [...]

My apologies for the slow posting of late. I have been working on a series of posts which are taking much more time than I had thought along with attending a reunion for a group of guys of which I am an associate member. I’ve been having a great time and I appreciate [...]

After much consideration, I have decided to decommission the forum. While the idea sounded great and I love the forum on F-16.net, it didn’t work out. There were entirely too many spam posts and registrations. I simply do not have the time right now to add forum administration to the list of [...]

Work will likely be busy today and there are errands to run at lunch, so I very well may not be able to post before I get home. Once home, there’s a camcorder to look forward to !!!

It appears that I needed to keep closer tabs on the forum. I thought I’d be notified of some things, but was not. I would like to extend my apologies to anyone who was offended by the spam posted there.
The forum has now been cleaned up and “users” (brings a whole new meaning) [...]

Very few, if any, will notice that I haven’t posted anything in the past few days. I do have an excuse. No, I wasn’t harassing the Cammo Dudes at Area 51. No, I wasn’t geocaching my way from here to Brazil. No, I wasn’t out at Nellis for an incentive ride with the Thunderbirds, nor [...]

Yet another new feature has been added to Parrothead Jeff.
Some say that I am an encyclopedia of (mostly) useless knowledge. Some say that I share entirely too much of this information. Some even go so far as to say that I have a tendency to share this information in verbose mode as it were.
They say [...]

Yep, they keep turning up. This one was reviews and I never really kept it going. I’m moving the best two posts over to this blog and who knows - I might even post some more reviews.

OK, so all the posts from my first two blogs have now been incorporated into this one. Those didn’t fare so well, but here’s hoping this one does better.

OK, like I’ve said before, I’ve tried this before. It’ll take some time, but I’ll be in the process of moving the posts from the other blogs over to this new one, including the correct date and time so you probably won’t even notice on the main page, but you’ll see it in the [...]
