Well sorry that I havent been able to post lately, but thats how it goes out here. Im on the good ol Abe Lincoln (CVN 72). Havent been down to the engine room, dont think they would let me touch that baby. We have an internet connection on the ship, mostly for getting email, but occasionally they open it up for getting on the internet. But it is so slow that its usually not worth it. A page like this could take 30 minutes to open up, and it usually times out and wont let open the page. Its not so bad so far, but the fun stuff is yet to come. Thanks for the encouragement, it goes a long way out here! Take it easy guys...
