What's up everyone???
It seems like ages since I've been able to socialize w/all
of you crazy fools

Well, I've been here since January and "should" be home
in about 3 weeks... I can't freakin' wait!
Surprisingly this trip has gone by pretty quick though and,
while it should be my last trip to THIS country, I am already
slated for a Summer 2010 trip to that OTHER country. Great, eh?

But it's been fun. I got to watch my Steelers win #6!
And I am LOVING the NHL Playoffs, Go Pens of course!

Doesn't seem like much going on on the Journey front and,
as usual, JSS seems to playing and singing anywhere he can

He just needs to book a date in Utah sometime this summer!!!

I guess one of the highlights of the trip was a visit and show
from Richard Patrick and Filter!!! They came out to our ramp
and hung out and then put on a pretty fucking incredible 2hr
show... I was truly blown away. And if you haven't got the latest
Filter album, give it a spin... I'd say it sounds like Filter doing songs
written by U2 back in the early 80's; It is pretty impressive.
I even got a nice pic w/the band...
Or should I say THEY got a nice pic w/Combat Carl!!!

Well, I hope everyone is doing well and that I will be able to be home soon
so I can get back to bullshittin' with y'all on a more regular basis; I truly miss
this place!

Take care...

As for Filter, I had NO idea they were still around. I'll have to check that out.

Great to hear from you Carl, was wondering how you were the other day.

God bless!

Hey man,

Great to hear from you. I'm glad you're doing well. I just can't believe how frequently the damn Active Army is deploying people! I know of a guy who's gone 5 times since 9/11. That's a bunch of shit! At least in the National Guard, our guys only go out once every 3 or 4 years. Well that's the norm anyway. Some units never get deployed from here in SC at all. Anyway, have fun on your trip home, and Godspeed to you and your family. I really appreciate all of your sacrifices, and thank you for what you do. :wink:

Thank you for serving our great country. You and the rest of the troops are heroes in every sense of the word.

Mad props C. You are a stud.

Now, feel free as a Penguins fan, to slightly turn a tomahawk towards Ovechkins hometown. That fucker is killing you guys!

Come out to LA and we'll get Soto to play somewhere.
