Its Wednesday morning and still raining. Hopefully today will be the last day of rain, at least for a while.

I originally thought when I started this blog that i would use it to recount my experiences while in the Navy. After further thought I decided that it would be better to use it to record my impressions of world and local news.
Go Navy, It's about time the Powers that be let loose the SEALS to free the skipper of the Alabama.

Interesting note in NYT Thursday Apr. 16, third world cook fires are becoming a major contributor to global warming, due to what is called black carbon. I don't think there is anyway to get them to stop cooking so the problem is problematic. I however think that the socalled civilized countries(civilization isn't all its cracked up to be) are the real problem. Until they come up with an alternative to burning fossil fuels the world is going to slip farther and farther into a global meltdown until mother nature says enough is enough and kills us all off.
