Time for a new job.
Way back when, when I was stationed in Germany, there was a certain SFC that I had enough of. They sent my group out into the field living in tents in some woods somewhere. Gets awfully dark in those woods in Germany, and I knew that he was going to end up out with my group, and I had enough of him. Before we left garrison to head out, I took an .07 string off of one of my electric guitars and ran it through two good sized bolts (handles), and anticipated a dark woods, if you know what I mean. To make a long story short, JAG did this thing on how a POW could and couldn't be taken, and how they had to be treated as POWs. And, there were MPs there, and as a demonstration, they grabbed me and some other guys to take prisoners. Grabbed us. Didn't ask us. Grabbed us. While some MPs held us, literally, other MPs went through our pockets to demonstrate how its done. You should have seen the look on their faces when they pulled that gizmo out of one of my pockets. At first they had no idea what it was and jokingly questioned it, but after they unrolled it, they figured out what it was and what for, just not who for. While the other guys stayed there being made POW examples of in front of the Brigade, I got escorted in front of the Brigade commander by some MPs, MP commander, some JAG types, and interregated. Ultimately I admitted to nothing, they kept the gizmo, took me back to my Company. If none of that had happened, I fully expected it to get real dark in that woods later that night. I don't know if those guys did me a favor or not.

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
