Eeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwww........

Or at least, that's what my friend said when she saw what I had for dinner last night. This was my first time having sushi in the traditional manner. I went with the two guys from my unit who went to class with me. One of then had never had sushi before, and the other is a connoisseur. So Potter, having the experience ordered for all of us, trying to get a good range of stuff to try. I liked everything we had, it was really good.

By far the strangest thing was the two rolls in the upper right- salmon roe. Which is really just a fancy way to say caviar(which, in turn, is a fancy way to say eggs). It had a very strange texture, but was very good. It had a very strong salmon(not fishy, but actual salmon) flavor, was pretty salty, but I would recommend you try it if given the chance.

Fires of War

Art from Halo 3: ODST, manipulated by me.

Those of you who've known me for a while know that I enjoy photomanipulation as a hobby, so expect to see more of these here.

To infinity and beyond!

Ok, so this post will probably be pretty short, as I'm posting it from my phone. A rather inauspicious way to start a blog, but it's a start. First, attached is a picture of a VSAT, or Very Small Aperture Terminal. It's a satellite system the Army uses, and which I learned how to set up this week. Yeah. I connected to space. How awesome is that?

Okay, now I'd like to give a basic idea of what you can expect to see here. I've created two blows to run for 2012(and possibly beyond). This is the public one. The other is somewhat more personal and will have a more limited audience. But anyway! This blog here will be host to just about everything. My thoughts, my forays into cooking for my friends at school, highlights of our shenanigans, pictures, links, all of it. No holds barred. I hope you're ready!
