Jack Aubrey

Did you hear about the poor guy in Hawaii who had his left side absolutely shredded by a tiger shark? He's all right now.

Batman: Killing Time & Batman & The Joker: Deadly Duo. 8/10 stars for both!

S by J. J. Abrams & Doug Derst. I love that it contains props like newspaper articles, research notes, & letters. Not to mention a lively conversation written in the margins. It's quite good so far. After that I'll be tackling House of Leaves. Before I started S, I read the Batman graphic novels Killing Time & Batman & The Joker: Deadly Duo & I'm happy to report they're very, very good!

Check out the shows Monarch and For All Mankind, both are most excellent. And definitely watch Severance as it's quite brilliant.

I like to write my name in cursive. It's my signature move.

Overcast & warm with light rain. It's officially yucky out there.

Wow! Your hair hair too, huh? We may be long-lost relatives.

I grew my hair out after leaving the military. My hair is very wavy & tended to bunch up instead of laying down, as I discovered with a bit of heartbreak. I walked around with it for about two weeks whereupon I was well & truly sick of it so I went to the barber & had it cut "as short as you can without shaving me bald" which left me with maybe an eighth of an inch overall & I immediately loved it. Over the following years ol' male-pattern baldness struck (and hard) so now I just shave my head. I do compensate by having a long beard, tho! :D

Nice! I carry a Klarus flashlight (the one with two tailcap switches for strobe or constant on), one of 15 folders that I rotate on a daily basis. Today it's my Zero Tolerance Hinderer and yesterday was my Hogue X5 with bright blue aluminum scales. Also I carry a Pendleton bandana, a Christy knife for small jobs in my shirt pocket, a Fisher Bullet space pen, a SOG Power Assist with a cord-wrapped firesteel sewn to the pouch. In my wallet are several tools including lockpicks, one of those Grimm Workshop survival cards and a fresnel lens. I also carry a Blackhawk water bottle. I also like those hats with Velcro on them for morale patches. Behind my patches I have secured a ceramic knife, a handcuff key, and 10 feet of kevlar cord.

I like those Body Armor drinks. Did you know that most headaches are caus d by mild dehydration? The next time you have a headache, drink a large glass of water or two just until you start feeling a little uncomfortable. Wait just a couple of mins or so til you burp. A burp is caused by the pyloric sphincter at the base of your stomach opening up & the water flushing into your intestines where it begins to be absorbed by your body's tissues. Your headache will either be gone or fading within roughly 15-20 mins.

Gorgeous! My main carry is an FNX .45.

I carry several tools whenever I go out because I like to be efficient as well as prepared. I always find interacting with others who dig it to be interesting as well as edifying. So if you happen to be into it, then drop a reply & let's talk. And maybe share a few pics of our loadouts should you be so inclined.

Retirement Plan with Nicolas Cage. It was pretty good.

Great guy, great videos! Rick Beato is the best music teacher I've ever seen.

Really good. His performance was of course the standout in the movie.

I enjoyed that movie a lot more than I thought I would, it was super fun.

Thank you for the review! I very much appreciate it.

Oppenheimer, it was pretty good. I've always loved Fat Man and Little Boy with Jon Cusak and Paul Newman and will always consider it a superior movie, but Oppenheimer was indeed watchable. Great special effects, too.

And to you as well, sir! Merry Christmas!

Batman, Green Lantern, & Aquaman. I even have a limited edition Green Lantern ring. I've wanted one since I was six.

The 1st 3 EPS of season 2 are now available on Prime. Watch it!

Manic Mechanic - ZZ Top.

T. H. White's The Once And Future King.

Just got my copy yesterday.
