So we have 11 days. In the next 11 days I will be wrapping up a lot of details at my current job, and preparing for my new one. After that time I’ll be joining the quote “Big Leagues” and will be changing some of my habits.

After much discussion, folks input, and E-mails as well as commentary, the decision has been made to keep the doors open here at Registered Evil, and see how it goes.

If we attract no H&I fire, we’ll keep it operation.

If we start taking rounds, I pull the plug.
Sorry folks but family welfare takes priority over much beloved hobbies.

I, personally, will be cutting back not only on when I blog, but what I blog. Sports, Military and History will probably become my forte. Look for more stories like this, to give you an example.

V00d3w will be picking up the slack on political commentary, as well as anyone else who wants to sign up.

We have only a few rules: no pr0n, no Boonie Rat speak*, always consider OPSEC** and keep it civil***. That’s it. Any subject is a go, and nothing else is taboo.

So you want to be a blogger? Want to be a MilBlogger?
Consider this your recruiting call.

Drop us a line here, on Twitter or on Facebook.

No April Fools here. Totally Dead Serious, and is the wrap of events culminating that I alluded to both here and here.

400 feet up...and still going...

During the course of my career I received the minor reputation as a bit of a madman.

Long hours were my hallmark. The ability to sleep under ones desk and work at a computer station for over 48 hours can not be under rated when talking about project support. The ability to subside purely on coffee, nicotine, and finger nails is a survival ability needed in very few occupations, but practically second nature when on a IT Roll out spanning the entire country.

Back in the states from Venezuela...also known as How I spent my 10 yr High School Reunion

I have worked almost every position that can be had on a roll out. Field Tech, Help Desk, Help Desk manager, Project coordinator, Project Manager, Logistics, SME, QA Inspector even Safety and Field trainer. I have worked in 38 states. 4 countries. Thats not even including the places I went in the service. Over 1,000 projects, and who knows what the monetary value of all the projects I have worked on would be if I even tried to add them up. I wouldn’t mind having 1% of that, heh.

The Cingular expansion team in St. Louis

Now I have been given one step below my dream job: Roll out Specialist. However it’s not just the job, but with who. The number one company on the Fortune 500 list. No other company has more roll outs, and does it on less money than they do. No one. period. You can’t find a bigger, or better, challenge than that.

It’s a corner stone for me, a turning point, and as pilots refer to it: Bingo.

Got some changes coming round here.

We are in the last week of our Irish dedication, and I hope you have enjoyed our stories of Ireland, as well as the music and quotes from the country as well.

The big change is up in the air. We ask that you cross your fingers. It is something I, at least, have been striving for a very long time to gain a footing within. Because of this, there is a high possibility that our blogging may experience a transition in the near future. Some things are happening in my career that may make blogging either more common, or regular. Currently I try to have posts up by no later than 9 am. That time may shift to extremely early, or conversely extremely late.

However while the transition takes place we may go a few days without a post. We are not quitting. Careers just take precedence you know?

Otherwise continue to expect your College Sports coverage, political analysis, cigar reviews and other material of eclectic interest you have come to know and love.

Thanks to the wonders of Twitter I was able to reestablish contact with a blogger whom I had not “spoken” with in quite some time.

Venomous Kate of Electric Venom is indeed still at her venomous best

Given the large amount of bloggers whom have vanished in to the folds of Facebook for instant gratification, it’s nice to find another blogger who survived the BlogBoom of the mid 2000′s.

Drop in and say Hi will ya? Tell her I sent you.

Jim of the sunken New Dawn has returned to the Blog World. A New dawn of a different kind has peeked it’s head in to his world, drawing him back in to the fray.

Welcome back Jim. The blogosphere needs more with words such as yours.

I’ve had a theory for quite some time. A recent discussion with Boraz via Twitter reminded me of it once again.

My Microwave Burrito Theory

I’ve used this analogy quite a bit lately. In a recent paper regarding human interaction with technology I referenced it for college. I’ve mentioned it in comments countless times on other blogs.

I’ve never really put it in to a perspective that others could follow for posterity.

After having the Buddy Press system on here for almost a year, I’m going to remove it from the site. No one has used it quite frankly but spammers.

Our handful of regular commenter’s utilize the stock comment system, so the only thing the Buddy Press system has been so far is a distraction.

So unless someone out there actually has a use for it (feel free to comment) I’m going to remove it by the end of the week.

The Mechanic is deployed yet again. So I have again been asked to assist in keeping some regular content at his website Frozen in Drum, a Fort Drum, and 10th Mountain focused MilBlog.

Drop in over there sometime, say Hi. Wander around.

Just make sure we don’t let the dog out unsupervised all right?

Lex is dealing with a hole in his families heart currently.

A long time member of the family who helped raise his children, and pass the long hours has gone on.

Do me a favor after you dry your eyes at his tale.

Leave him a message will you?

Remember our post on this guy?

Welp he’s been arrested.

Thats right…he was arrested by the FBI.

Bouhammer and This Ain’t hell has the gory details but this blight was finally brought to justice, and a lot of it thanks to you readers help.

Lets hope this next moron isn’t quite so quick about giving themselves a list of medals that even General MacArthur couldn’t earn on his DD-214
