Wow, it's been what.....over 4 months or so I have not posted anything on this site, and I must say it was not by my choice. To make a long story short, I was a U.S. Naval reservist that got called up to finish my last remaining few months in my 8 year service commitment as an active service member. I just got back 4 days ago from a surprise trip somewhere in the south Atlantic ocean onboard a certain naval ship I am not at liberty to identify or it's purpose of it's mission. Sorry, but that's the extent of what I can say without going to a military brig. Now, what I can say is that it was one of my most boring 3 months of my life. I was not allowed to have my cell phone and laptop with me, so no phone calls or internet for all that time. Normally it is not like this on a Navy ship, but due to the specific nature of my deployment, maximum restrictions were put in place for the ship's crew. All that is behind me now, my military commitment is done both in active and reserves modes. I am back home with my family and that's all I care for. So, been looking around all the new postings in TWHL and I see there are a lot of neat things being talked about, so I can't wait to engage in some of them, especially the ones by satchmo and Penguinboy.
