This is it. I'm starting a blog. I just can't keep my mouth shut any longer.
I've been talking about doing this for the last 3 months. I guess I finally got off my ass and did it. Who knows if anyone will read it, or even gives a flying fuck about what I have to say, but I am going to put it out there and see what happens.
In the future you will see much on this blog. I've got friends in Iraq. I just might end up there (or the Big Stan again). If that happens, I'll give you all the up to date info on what it means to be in the shit. For now, you will be relegated to hearing my war stories, rants and occasional essays on shit I like to bitch about.
Where did the title of my blog originate?
A USMC recruiting poster.
I picked up the title because I feel that many Americans think they are entitled to a rose garden, despite the fact that they live amongst the roses every single day.
This country is, in my humble opinion, a utopia.
I hope you enjoy reading my future posts.
However, if you are offended by my prose and are looking for sympathy, look up it up in the dictionary; you can find it between shit and syphilis.
Semper Fidelis.
