Tell the piper to sound "Don Armor", Ship's Sergeant!

We're one step closer to battledress. I'm impressed that guy drove for several hours wearing it, and is willing to stand in it and take live fire to demonstrate its ability to protect the wearer.

I'm still a bit sick, and today's 10-hour marathon did not help things. But, I am happy. Nay, I am actually giddy with glee! Because, sitting with arm's reach is The West Wing. Not Season 1, Not third-generation VHS copies recorded off a broadcast station in American Samoa, but the complete series on DVD. Thanks, [livejournal.com profile] jarlsberg71!

Now if I was only awake enough to watch them. Ah, well. Since [livejournal.com profile] kshandra will be at FurCon this weekend (and I've often maintained that I will only attend a furry event dressed as a Voyageur) I suspect I will spend large portions of the weekend in political-porn bliss. I'm still thinking about going to the Giants' fan-fest, but if the weather and I both remain crappy, I'll call it off.

It's not sealed, so not quite. But that's not too far down the line, i think.

True enough. Combat Environment Suit, maybe?

I live 20 minutes from Nathan Phillips Square. I'm almost tempted to wander down on Saturday and see the show.

... only it would have been last Saturday. Oops. Must think before pressing "send" next time.
