Java Zen:Thinking Out Loud Tuesday, 2026.02.24 
Times of oppression and adversity cannot last forever. How is the transition
made to new and better situations? In the midst of great difficulty, a tiny
opportunity will open, if only by chance. You must be sharp enough to discern
it, quick enough to catch it, and determined enough to do something with it. If
you let it pass, you will be filled with regrets.

Voice In The Sand

Michael Yon emails he is headed back to Iraq for another year. His independent reporting on the war and the American efforts in that region is truly exceptional. If you’re unfamiliar with his work, start here: Little Girl / Strength and Compassion and The Hands of God.

Mr. Yon’s work is entirely reader funded – no legacy media meddling – so if you appreciate his work, you can go here and learn how to support his effort.

I sent along another $100 this morning.
