ILP– HI YO SILVER QUEEN AWAY

Posted on June 3, 2015 by asknod

HADIT.COM OPEN MIC ON VR&E’S IL PROGRAM

Posted on May 26, 2015 by asknod

I love going over to talk at John Basser’s and Jerrell Cook’s Hadit.com Talk Radio show. It’s also a bit of a rude awakening to have to get up at the crack of 5 to go feed the animals and … Continue reading →

ILP–10 DAYS IN MAY

Posted on May 17, 2015 by asknod

MAY 7TH, 2015-IT’S JUST A SPRING CLEAN FOR THE MAY QUEEN

Posted on May 9, 2015 by asknod

Actually, it’s the Silver Queen of Leigh Burch fame. The 7th is an auspicious day to plant corn according to the almanac. The fact that it was 74 degrees outside the greenhouse was another consideration. Living where we do, if … Continue reading →

BVA–TRAVEL BOARD HEARINGS

Posted on April 25, 2015 by asknod

I see much written both here and over at HADIT.com about BVA hearings. For the majority of you, in the interests of getting rated as soon as possible, waiting for a Travel Board hearing face-to-face with a Veterans Law Judge … Continue reading →

VARO 346– 40% MORE- HE’S HIGHLY OVERRATED

Posted on April 10, 2015 by asknod

In a never ending cascade of ratings, VA has now bequeathed upon me an additional 40% for cryoglobulinemia and fibromyalgia. As inane as this may sound, I don’t want or need the ratings. It’s not a prerequisite for any more money … Continue reading →

ILP–LZ GOLF HOTEL 1- SPRING

Posted on March 29, 2015 by asknod

Posted on March 22, 2015 by asknod

As some pointed out, going down for double can be a dicey enterprise. Splitting up the cards into two bets isn’t the best way to do it either. It also appears this is Judge Davis’ way of saying get lost. … Continue reading →
