New jacket, worthwhile links

When I signed up for the Coleman Powersports newsletter a month ago, I was emailed a coupon good for 20% off any single in-stock accessory in the following 30 days. Since that would've expired in a couple days, I opted to use it today, and picked up a nice leather/textile summer-weight jacket--the Joe Rocket "Reactor" jacket, in black/blue/white. Fits well, looks good, and will be more comfortable in the summer than my solid jacket with just arm vents. :)

(Picked up my permanent license plate, too, to replace the expiring-tomorrow temp tag, as well as the title and new registration.)

Taking Chance Home
The following is Marine Lieutenant Colonel Strobl's account of escorting the remains of Lance Corporal Chance Phelps. It's long and beautifully written and it deserves to be read in it's entirety. It's about Valor, Honor and Respect.

And via the same, a rant about Kitchen Fresh Chicken By That Fancy Coffee Place

I agree--the photo doesn't show the mesh aspect of it well, though.
