The Rise And Fall of the Nigerian Space Program
Before Cheryl sent me this hilarious story about a childhood experiment with gun powder, I had never heard of The LawDog Files. The stories he writes are hilarious and it's been addded it to my wish-I-had-more-time-to-comb-through collection of RSS feeds.

Glad you are enjoying his stories as much as I am. I stumbled on his blog last week after stumbling on another blog that linked his (http://www.decrepitoldfool.com/). The comparison was made to Patrick McManus and so I had to check it out for myself. Very true. I sent his link to Patrick (who used to live near my parents in Idaho). Anyways, I laughed so hard I had to stop reading less I wet my pants. (Childbirth is wonderful, but I do so miss bladder control...).Anyhoo--I guess he is an officer by career. By the sounds of it, pretty darned well read as well. Definately one of those sorts I'd like to meet someday.
Jake said on 04/29/06 @ 08:32 AM: Yes, he does read a lot like Pat McManus (who I grew up reading his books -- they were hilarious). I really need to go check out the few books of his I haven't read.
Cheryl Howard said on 04/29/06 @ 09:22 AM: Chances are, I have them. They smell like olives, but are totally readable. Drop by sometime and I'll hand them off to you.
