The Gods are just Messing with us now (bastards)

Mrs. Stroock, who is not yet cleared to drive, sent us to the grocery store to pick up a few things. It will surprise some readers that in New Jersey, one can purchase fireworks at one's local Shoprite. 

Mrs. Stroock not pleased. 

Remember, there are half a million Hindus in this state. Diwali, which is like Christmas and Guy Fawkes Day rolled into one, is now a school holiday here in Bridgewater. You say fireworks. We say, 1st Amendment. Actually, the Bridgewater police department is very accommodating about fireworks and lists what's legal and not before telling residents to be careful and have fun.

For the love of Kek would you people call me Will and look me up on FB  and or Gab? A valued reader suggested a book in the comments. The book looks great and at some point we will pick it up, thanks. But one must needs be careful with these situations. One of the many reasons we don't read fiction anymore is that we don't want other people's ideas creeping into our own. That being said, we're gonna get this one so as to improve our own work's realism.

Tucker Carlson tells us that the NSA has been spying on him. This blog assumes the Feds are reading its communications. So when we message a buddy of ours, 'Hey did you see that sideline NFL cheerleader? Nice tits,' we figure an FBI agent is logging it. We're not kidding. We write for Inforos after all. Right now we're working on a piece for our commie handler on budget reconciliation and the filibuster. Real subversive stuff. We suspect the Feds would argue that by writing legit news, we're providing cover for Soviet disinformation. In fact, the media has made that argument before. 

[Do you really think you could be in some sort of legal trouble?-Ed]

We'll put it this way. We cannot 100% rule out the possibility that the Feds will concoct something against us. Look at what they did to General Flynn, Roger Stone, etc etc. We have a plan.  More likely is some coordinated press campaign. They hit Inforos last summer and even quoted one of our articles, without attribution, mind you. Assuming Amazon didn't cancel us, getting the media spotlight would be a great way to sell books.

Anywhoo...Sometimes one writes a thing without really knowing what it's about. We've been doing that with the 8th Infantry Division's counterattack. But then we had that flash of inspiration, that lightening across the sky. The point of the chapter, the theme, is that the 8th finally has a chance to bring about a battle on its terms. When the moment comes, can marshal all it's resources at the decisive point. Hello arty, MLRS and Apaches. 

We got back to The Great Nuclear War of 1975 yesterday; Argentine chapter. So far, we like what we. Pressing onward. Ever onward. And we did so during the late afternoon in a Mavis Tire waiting room. You see, we got in the car to take the girls to the pool, and noticed we had a tire air pressure problem. That's when we saw the screw in the tire. And so Kek laughed...
