You may recognize me from such places as #NOLAtwitter.
You may address me as Sir El Spotto, as befits my status as a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Sealand (OMS), or you can just call me El Spotto. It ain’t that big a deal.

We know from too much weight on services buried in formerly swampy ground.
Waiting for the first report that a tank broke through and is blocking the Blue Line.

And furthermore, he wouldn’t even honor our D-Day dead because of the rain. So if he shows up today in the rain, it sure as hell is not to honor the birthday of my branch.

Yes, Anna, I have been putting off painting the trim in my house. I just don’t want to do all the prep.

We also have a bluegrass pickin on the town square. Two great ways the community is completely ignoring the Tonka truck parade.
Now, time to chat with the old Marines and hear their stories. Again.

I saw a post demeaning Simone B for not having to compete against men. I assure you as a guy who was friends with many gymnasts in college that Mr Iron Cross fell off the uneven bars and admitted he could never compete on them.

I am glad there is someone else in this planet that does things like that! I have an umbrella, I have appropriate footwear, I can skip the crowd. 😁

They are about to learn what every cadet and freshly made LT learns: they aren’t in charge. When they ignore their NCOs who say “hey sir maybe you should…” it won’t go well. For them. An LTC would already know this. These yutzes? Not so much.

I read that one. I don’t why people don’t look at context here. Someone called me out for not including a particular rep in my “I’m not mad at them” comment without looking to see that right before that I had replied to this rep with “keep it up but please do more in this moment”.

I am going to be dealing with the fallout of my actions yesterday for a while. My block muscles are getting cramps.

We had tons and tons of eucalyptus in the Bay Area. Also pretty, but not jacaranda pretty.

Oooh. Yes, it is powered by coal and you can smell it three cities away, but now I want to go find pictures it.
There was a narrow gauge steam train in the redwoods near where I grew up that gave rides. That was always a fun day.

I was in a building full of nerds. Wouldn’t rule out being phasered or light sabered as a hazing method.

I recently acquired a bonsai starter kit. One of the envelopes of seeds was this gorgeous tree. It’s the only way I will be able to have one in North Carolina.

First customer first day as a tech for Apple I handed him a computer we had moved his data to. I thought I was being phased until I walked out the door to the floor.

I used to tell tourists in colonial Williamsburg (I was not an employee at the time) that a particular oak was the fabled Tree of Liberty. I was never once questioned.
Yes, for those keeping track that means I was cosplaying as a tour guide. 🤣

Bottom left. She is the Secretary but not an officer. Any other time in history impersonating a federal officer would be arrestable. It is customary to remove the identifying words/symbols when a civilian is loaned equipment.
