The Global War on Terror is indeed very Global

Looks like the government of Uganda deserves some kudos, apparently stopping a major Al-Qaeda attack during the Commonwealth meeting in Kampala.  As much time as I’ve spent in Uganda, I was worried whether the Ugandan security forces were up to protecting so many VIPs in the insanity that is Kampala.  Good thing they were.

Uganda, NF2, Second Amendment, Space, Oh My!

Starting a new blog is always difficult.  Interests ranging from my charity work in Uganda, to my son’s battle with Neurofibromatosis, Type 2 (NF2), to my politics as a constitutional anarchist, to my interest in Space exploration, to my recent 80 pound weight loss through willpower.  It’s hard to say where this all will lead, but we shall see. 

I guess I’ll start by posting my favorite picture of my Ugandan ‘daughter’ and me on my recent trip there:

Winnie and ‘Dad’
  I probably over-emphasize the work in Uganda, but it sure is productive and one makes real changes in people’s lives there with very little effort.  I may retire there someday.
