OSHA

I’ve been sitting in an OSHA 30 Hour Course for General Construction. I cannot begin to tell you how laborious this week has been. I managed to complete 2 online courses, research flight schools, and balance my financial statements during my time here. The instructor is a very knowledgeable southern woman who has taught the class just as much about her family as OSHA standards. If you didn’t know, OSHA is Occupational Safety and Health Administration. http://www.osha.gov/ in case you can’t sleep tonight. I don’t think I could follow a career in safety, I’m not bossy enough. I did learn what can happen if a guy doesn't adjust a fall protection harness in the proper manor. There was a delightful story of how a guy fell from a building with his harness improperly adjusted. Before he hit the end of the safety line his testicle had worked it's way to the to the other side of the crotch strap. When the medics finally cut the guys pants off, low and behold, his testicle had shot straight out of the scrotal sack. That had to suck!

ENOUGH SAID

Field Day at the Airfield

So, today I was tasked with the opportunity to work out on the airfield with the air force. I noticed this big ass plane and decided to ask if I could take a photo.

The cool thing about this plane is that it actually looks like a movie theater inside.

Going Outside

Here's a photo of myself and our Security guy just before heading outside the base to visit the Regional Embassy Office. Going outside the wire, as it's called, isn't all that exciting for me. Good news is I don't have to do it very often.

Homeland Security

Ask the American Indians what happens when you don't control immigration.

$1.25 Million

That's right folks, tax payer money in action. 4 up armored SUV's coming in at $250,000 each. They don't drive too bad either.

Which Do You Think?

I'm leaning more towards the B&W but I may be just going thru a phase. By the way, this was taken on my last trip to Bangkok.
