. . . and all the same I've lost myself and walked along the land. These steady steps, I fear them so, as I long for leaping decks and the ocean's unholy hands. Where one horison leads to another, and the end you can not tell. But alas, it's here I sit amognst the trees, and from my dreams dispelled.
In my work at CNAS, I spend a lot of my day catching up on international and defense news. Having enjoyed the reportings of the completely non-news focused website FailBlog.org, for some time now, I've since adopted terming dissatisfying outcomes as "fails." Thus very often, when something humourusly wrong happens in defense, diplomacy or development news, I often find myself refering to it as a "fail."
Having a few momments to myself each day, I thought it best to jam them full of extra activities, and decided I would throw together a blog of my own. After mulling over which topics to cover, I landed on the idea of having a Fail Blog for international issues. The resulting idea, Defcon: Fail. I got really jazzed about the idea, and found I could purchase defconfail.com for only $7.50 a year, so needless to say, I now own it, for the next year at least.
I don't have a host for the site, and not enough time to really start anything with it, but hey, it's there.

Considering the news we've been inundated with, "defconfail(dot)com will be a full-time job! You sure won't have a lack of subjects! And yeah, it's a little bit nerdy, but totally cool.
