Morning Coffee (07)

Nothing much time to report today; really busy. Hate to let you all down, considering how much you look forward to the Morning Coffee and all.

Lots of news though. Rumsfeld steps down as SECDEF. We could speculate all day long as to whether or not it is a good thing. I leave that to you to discuss today.

Word of the Day: Congeries (noun): a collection; an aggregation.
On This Day in History: We're doing tomorrow early: 10 Nov 1775 - The Continental Congress passed a resolution creating two battalions of Continental Marines; the birth of my beloved United States Marine Corps. Two-hundred thirty-one years - that's a lot of history, and a lot to live up to for contemporary Marines. And they are up to the challenge and do so every day. No birthday ball for me this year, which sucked, but I was there in spirit. Semper Fi.

Will be out of town tomorrow through Sunday - we will resume our charade then.

Have a safe weekend and thank a vet and wish a Marine happy birthday.
