Appalachian Patria

Appalachian Intellectual. To me that means plain thinking. I am A Non Commissioned Officer in the Army Reserves. Let me say...My views expressed here are mine and not those of The U.S. Army, Army Reserve or my fellow brethren in The National Guard. This is entirely Sua Sponte. This is My Thinking. I'm single and in my mid 30's. Politicaly, I'm a Libertarian. (Again, Sua Sponte.I do not represent the Libertarian Party.)I love my native Appalachia, Rock n Roll and...I love God.

Name:
Location: Brevard, North Caroilina

I started blogging for two reasons. I was concerned about the changes to the area I live in, Southern Appalachia and I was about to go to the war. I was in Iraq in 06 and 07 and now Kuwait in 11 and 12. Blogging was a means of documenting my experiences and hoping it would help gain clarity. I don't feel that way about it any more. It's said people write blogs because they are frustrated, that's why people read them too. That makes us sound apocalyptic. Are we? Let it be said, what I say here is of my own thinking. This is entirely Sua Sponte and not an official representation of the U.S. Military or the U.S. Government as a whole.

It's Not A Big Post

Yesterday was a heck of a day. It used to be the over 40 physical, now it's the 39 and over physical. The Army sent me to the Sisters of Mercy for my physical. They were sympathetic. I had blood drawn from both arms, air blown in my eye, two women inform me they may have to shave my chest as they stuck probes to me, told I have a slow heart and that was good, turned my head and coughed, and a man stuck his finger up my ass and told me my prostrate felt good. The Army is giving me one whole days pay to do that. I shouldn't have to do it for another four years.

Turned Cold

It's been cooler the last couple of days. Squeaky's water had ice in it both days. Bells bowl is little deeper. Bosco drinks from the creek.

Political Dreaming
I had some strange things in dreams. I dreamed I was telling someone I wouldn't vote for whoever I was dreaming about if they were running Republicrat for dog catcher. I have no idea who. A couple of nights ago I dreamed that someone (I keep dreaming about this someone person)told me in ten years NC and SC would become one state. That's sadly political.

It ain't a big post. It didn't say a whole lot...But...
"I don’t want anything I done to be nobody’s fault
even if they got more money and mouth than they got balls.
That’s just how it went down, right or wrong, it’s just that way.
Just cause I don’t run my mouth don’t mean I got nothing to say....

Well, now this all reminds of a physical I had at Fort Jackson. The line for the DRE (Digital Rectal Exam) was long on one side of the hall. I wondered why, and someone told me it was because of the woman doctor. I wondered about that until the door opened on the other side of the hall. A man wearing a doctor's coat stepped out. He looked like Lurch on the Munsters (and old TV show). He was at least 6 feet 5 inches with hands like ham hochs. I ain't smart, but I got in the long line. Bend over, "Yes, Mamm." You can't win, but you can survive. Take care. Tonight will be cold too.

Hey, you can't beat that. Getting paid to take a physical. For most folks it's the other way around. :-)

And good prostate health? That's simple, just do a lot of lycopene.

I actually did have the DRE a few years ago by a lady PA (physicians assistant) and she told me my sphincter was smooth, no 'roids and prostate was normal size. She said for someone approaching 60 I had a very healthy rectum. I told her is was the salsa 3-4 times a week and a handful of blueberries in my daily yogurt that did it.

She said whatever works, keep doing it.

Bill, that sounds like a really bad dream. I think I would have got in the lady Dr's line too.

I will folow that advice, Gunner. I'll make a goal out of having a lady Dr tell me I have a nice rectum.

I used to live with a fellar that was a salsa eating machine. I've not kept it around in my second bachelorhood, my ex kept it in the house, I'd eat it. I went and bought a jar the otherday.

Sparkel, have a happy physical! Speaking for myself, I'll have a good Friday, I'll have a good Satruday too.

I don't know which is worse...having to shave through all that hair on the chest or being the one to stick a finger up your bum. :-)

It is important Mew. We could start the Blogger Association of Healthy Rectums. We don't need proof, We'll take your word for it. No annual meetings.

Murf, the Dr said he didn't like that part either.

That would be the Hillbilly Blogger Association of Healthy Rectums. No annual meetings and no anal people allowed.

Murf....As long as you are wearing a glove it's all right

Bears and Bums....what a blog:)

well, if NC and SC starts to merge, I'm going to move back home and kick some ass! But then, although there are a few good folks from SC, I've always looked at them as the lesser of the Carolinas... (and watching part of the SC/FL ballgame last night supported my theory--I assume FL continued to kick butt)

Was that a pun, Janie?

Sage, in some ways they are the lesser of the Carolinas. They don't have as good an educations system. I can attest to that. Yet, they are not taxed as bad as we are. And as far as Raleigh is concerned, the western part of the state makes for good tourism commercials. I don't know about Columbia.
