2. Coincidentally, while meeting the NJ kids this evening, I'll be meeting the regular Saturday Lunch gang behind NJ at Greenwoods tomorrow; it should be a nice visit to a place I used to go to almost weekly during my stay in IP for Gelato study/chat sessions.
3. While at work yesterday I managed to read all 170 pages of Rites of Passage: An OCS Story, a history of OCS which, apparently, was given to Josh's batch during their commissioning dining-in. In its opening pages, readers are told that the foundational criteria for being selected to be trained as an Officer are "aptitude, interest and potential for developing military leadership competencies". While reading that it occurred to me that two words make that incongruous with my person. The first is 'interest', because when applied to everything in that sentence bar one, isn't any problem. That then brings me to the second troublesome term, 'military', for reasons probably obvious to anyone who has ever met me.
