I'm told the engines are running, and the ship is making steady progress to port. For some reason, I can't hear the hum of the engines. The reality of the situation is that I can't see the horizon and have no reference point. Hopefully, my ship will arrive in port on time - the final date hasn't been confirmed. I think in the distance we just passed the rock of Gibraltar. Needless to say, time is moving painfully slow. The satellite TV has been out for two days. We're being told that it is due to "sun spots" that are consistent with this time of year in the desert. Who has heard of such things? Can't you just see COMCAST issuing that sort of press release? How long do you think that Americans would put up with that? It is all the same, because I cannot stomach watching the MLB playoffs - some things are just too painful. It doesn't help that all the Marines are harassing me ... So how are the North Carolina MLB teams doing? Oh yeah, the Braves didn't make the playoffs. The good news is that NL West teams are playing well and just might make some progress toward proving that the left coast is better than they get credit for.
On a positive note, the good fight continues to rage on. The Marines in al Anbar are just straight dominating - nothing else I can say about it.

Thanks for letting us know the Braves didn't make the playoffs!
Not only are the Braves not in the playoffs, the Saints are using the "How to Lose" playbook this year. Too bad they didn't bury it with last years news clippings! The coach wanted a new year and he's getting it.
Just returned home from seeing Sean play football at KP. He had a great game.........in a losing effort. Sean had many tackles, recovered a fumble, and put a whopper of a hit on the QB. KP just can overcome LOFT.
