May 30th - In Remembrance

Posted by Bill Bickford on Monday, May 30, 2016,
Today is a special day.  While many people see it only as a 3 day weekend or a time for sales, there is a much deeper and profound reason for this day.  While only a small percentage of the population of this great country have even signed up to protect and serve this country, even if that meant giving the ultimate sacrifice, there are inspiring people who have done so and in the face of the harshest realities, laid down their lives for, most of the time, total strangers who they never knew. ...

May 22nd - Another week

Posted by Bill Bickford on Monday, May 23, 2016,
Greetings foolish mortals.  Another weekend is pretty much over here and it's been a relaxing, recouping weekend for for the BBP.  After a very long and arduous week, it was nice to just go low key and enjoy some down time.  Had a crazy busy week with work and studying.  Took a lot out of me and also needed the break.  Weather has been beautiful here.  Of course it is, it's SoCal so we got that going for us...which is nice.  Another week starts but it should be a little bit easier.  Still hav...

May 15th - Farewell weekend

Posted by Bill Bickford on Monday, May 16, 2016,
Well, here we are again on a Sunday night and the weekend has flown by and it's Monday eve.  I'm ready for Friday to get here so I can be done with this testing I've been studying for and start getting out and doing more again.  My free time has been spent refreshing something I already had but need to update and more importantly, I need for my job.  It's not easy being The Man but someone has to do it and I accept it and strive to be the best.  And yes, if that includes being a little arroga...

May 10th - A New Look

Posted by Bill Bickford on Wednesday, May 11, 2016,
Well how does it look?  I accidentally changed the format of the website and I actually like this look.  It's easier to navigate through the site and looks to be more user friendly.  This whole new look has a lot of symbology with what's going on with life too, for the better.  Life is good. 

Until next time...

May 9th - Back to the grind

Posted by Bill Bickford on Tuesday, May 10, 2016,
Hello foolish mortals.  Here we are, back on the west coast, the best coast, after an interesting trip back east to Florida.  While I didn't get everything done that I had hoped or planned, I did get a few things accomplished and am happy about that.  I really enjoyed the trip back and seeing all my family and the friends I did manage to see.  However, I have learned I am not a fan of flying.  Such a pain in the ass.  We seriously need a rail system like they have in Europe.  I'd do that all ...

May 1 - Hello May...goodbye April

Posted by Bill Bickford on Sunday, May 1, 2016,
Hello there.  What a perfect start to the month.  April was finished up with an awesome trip to San Diego.  Toured the U.S.S. Midway and relived a few memories.  Was actually "stuck" on her for a couple days during the Persian Gulf War in 1991.  Saw quite a bit of stuff, many wonderful aircraft with my favorite jet the F-14 Tomcat and of course my all time favorite, the SH-60 Seahawk.  The Seahawk and I go way back and have a lot of fond memories and still have some nightmares with it but the...
