Thanks, @Crease. You all would do well to follow Crease’ lead and give me unambiguous compliments more. Stop saying I’m old, that’s rude, beneath your dignity.
@trudymcd, the recumbent peep in the original post? I don’t know but that is a frog after my own heart.
P. Peep, long time resident of Frog Flats, found squashed this morning beneath the dignity of a very old Navy Man. Donations to Amphibian Widows Fund suggested in lieu of flowers.
Great when you are in charge and have friends (Superiors) in very high (top of the line) places and you are the only one that can get the job done. The Chief of Naval Operations, The Naval Inspector General and the Chief of Naval Personnel don’t just call up any mid-grade Mustang Officers like me every day, but they all called me three times to go do some difficult task ( which means they were screwing me over) I worked for them all when they were young officers and I was an enlisted member and they never forgot me saving their A$$es and their jobs.
I basically got to do things my way (any damn way I pleased) to be successful and get the task done.
