"Bullet, meet foot"

[wombat_socho]

The Army goes overboard with new OPSEC restrictions that apply to milblogs, e-mail, IMs and in theory, pretty much any way a soldier might want to communicate with people on the home front. Great move, guys. We're already getting our asses kicked in the propaganda war, and you're trying to shut the mouths of the only people actually trying to fight it. WTF is wrong with these people? Professor Death has links to reactions by Blackfive and Dadmanly, who are both justifiably pissed about this.

In order to maintain the few remaining shreds of plausible deniability I have left on here, I'm not going to give a direct answer to that question. We do indeed know each other, but we haven't moved in the same circles in years.

Depends how you look at it. While you probably haven't thought of me in years, I was a friend of your ex's before your marriage and she went on to marry one of our Godparents, so you are an implied presence for me everytime I see your kids.

...so you are an implied presence for me everytime I see your kids.

Interesting way of putting it - and mind you, I'm not a Minnesotan, so "interesting" doesn't carry the negative connotation it normally does in these parts. ;)
