We have a lot of funny guys in our company and their isn't anything worse for them to have then ; spare time. A few came together to help the commander with his decision making process and made this little fella. Basically it's a little glass jar and on the jar reads the following instructions. I'll attach a few different ones also throughout the day.

Instructions:

When confronted with a deeply ponderous predicament. Shake viforously, open container, allow contents to spill onto the marching surface, read, and execute as indicated.

Update as of March 7, 2010

Hello all, hope this finds that all is well in your little part of the world. I've moved successfully to my new location in JAF and have seemed to fit in with the guys. If you haven't already figured it out I'm on days and am flying almost everyday which i don't mind. The days go by quickly and seem as if you wake up to just fall asleep again. The weather is starting to warm up and before we know it were going to be in the 120-140 from what I'm told. The missions here are more demanding on the pilots but also more satisfying once completed giving you the feeling of making a difference. I thank everyone for the continued support that has been given and as always if you have a question don't hesitate to ask. I really don't know what to say other then put pictures on here and talk about what seems to be interesting.

Here are a few pictures that we've taken throughout the week; enjoy
