I wanted to give you all an update on the 13 day break. It’s been a good one so far and I’m looking forward to seeing her through. The title “The Eagle has landed” refers to our Roanoke Rampage Football team. We’ve landed in BEAUTIFUL Orlando Fla. to take on the Orlando Gaurdians tomorrow night. I don’t know, maybe I ...

YEA BABY!!! If I make to 0750 in the morning I am outta here for a 13 day break! WOOOO HOOOO! I’m like a kid on Christmas Eve today. I was thinking of going to bed right now so I don’t have to wait so long to wake up and get outa here. The break has both good and bad ...

Well, 4 day break is over and “C-shift” is back to duty. We had our 2nd football game of the season yesterday against the Washington DC Generals and lost 28-2. Yea .. I know but, as it’s been said several times;the fact that we are even on the field is a win for us. The rain held off just long ...

Ever heard the saying…”today’s NOT the day”? Or how about this is not a good week for that? I know… we all have em but it seems as though mine has carried through since January.

Well, the Roanoke Rampage had our first game this past Saturday and there’s good and bad news. The bad news?? We lost…9-0. The good news (and a lot of it) is that the game and entire day was a huge success. I’ll begin by saying this. Not many people got behind us. Most laughed. Others made the smart ass comments. ...

Well it’s Wednesday and the middle day of our cycle. Most of you have heard by now but we had a plane go down in the “Noke” yesterday.

We’re back and it’s Mon. Wed. Friday week…ugggggg! I HATE it! It seems as if you can never get anything done when working this cycle..at home that is. It’s rainy and cool anyway so I guess being here is as good as being anywhere else. It’s been a busy one too. We obviously haven’t had any fires but our brothers ...

Geesh.. I had a post darn near complete and had to come back and erase it. I should warn you though, this one will be a long one. Those of you who followed me here from the Misfit Blog know how long winded I can get. For our new readers, pull up a seat and relax…this may take me a ...

Uggg. We just got off a beautiful 4 day break. The weather was great and all of us made good use of the time. Today has been one of those days where you just wish you were anywhere…well anywhere but here that is. Rainy and cool, my back is out and I’m sick. I can think of a thousand places ...
