What is the main stream media anyway?
Today was a beautiful day today. Weather was gorgeous, if just a TAD warm, work was….well it was work. However any day you can end your day shagging balls at the driving range, can’t be all bad…… Took a nap at lunch time, having gone back to my apartment, having

Don’t feel like saying much today. Work is busy and at the same time its pointless. As an old mentor of mine once said, the script never changes in the Navy, just the actors do. Have been going through a lot of issues at work, where the powers that be
