We always worry about offending or hurting one another’s feelings. Appearance means so much. Observing another’s customs seems to be paramount these days. God forbid you should offend another’s sensibilities about religion. Cupcake sent me these to share with you. … Continue reading
CONGRESSIONAL FACEBOOK POLL
This is rich. Humorous rich. Laugh so hard it makes your head hurt rich. Congress is asking Vets for their opinion on whether VA is disciplining their employees commensurately with their poor performance. Hellooooooooooooooooooooooooooo? What discipline? The idea that if … Continue reading

BVA– TEXAS FREQUENT FILER PROGRAM
FROM THE TALL TALES REGIONAL OFFICE IN HOUSTON, TEXAS I write occasionally of the VA Backlog. I write sometimes about “frivolous filings”. Rarely do I come unglued and blow an ass gasket over Vets who legitimately (although mistakenly) attribute their … Continue reading
CHILDREN OF THE FUKUSHIMA CORN
