OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Ramblings From Your Admin… 4/8/2008
(Really.)
And though I am wondering if my gmail account can handle all the rss feeds… It’s something I have to do tonight.
(And it may or may not be to mourn that the Tigers are working through their 7th straight loss… or it may or may not be to spend some much needed time with my hubby and to enjoy this spring day).
I have so many things that I know I need to do tomorrow… publicly talk about this RDC issue… start a political/hot topic category and lay down some ground rules along with it… etc… Oh! Any why the heck you see a poll on the front page now.
So I need your help… Please keep it civil!! Help me greet new members… and keep being the wonderful supporters, and advice givers you are.
Sincerely,
Catherine

Awww thanks ladies :) Yes, I feel refreshed... and ready to start today with my Aveda Tea.
LOL - Steve's mom... football? Tigers = baseball
Ann- I think all these big talents need to "mush" together... and I think when they do they will be unstoppable! As for Detroit’s mayor... errr. I live in the suburbs... ;) and yeah... I don't know how much I can really comment on that.
Okay- off to approve photos- and read up on the RSS feeds :)
Sincerely, Catherine
