“May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.”


"This report is maybe 12-years-old. Parliament buried it, and it stayed buried till River dug it up. This is what they feared she knew. And they were right to fear because there's a whole universe of folk who are gonna know it, too. They're gonna see it. Somebody has to speak for these people. You all got on this boat for different reasons, but you all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything I know this, they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, 10, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people . . . better. And I do not hold to that. So no more running. I aim to misbehave." ~ Captain Malcom Reynolds

Still breathing

Sorry for the absence - it's been a long week. Busy with normal work stuff, plus dealing with spending some grant money coming our way (though buying work stuff that costs more than my house IS fun...) plus trying to actually spend time with my family and get ready for Jacob's birthday tomorrow after work. So, stories are on hold...

(Oh, and by "getting ready for Jacob's birthday" I mean my wife has done all this incredible stuff, and I mowed the yard and said yes I'd have the grill ready for s'more's....)

Nothing is here yet - still in the purchasing stage, but getting to upgrade a lot of our bomb squad capabilities - obviously not going into specifics, but it is some very nice and needed improvements!
