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."

My sister and I went to see Eat Pray Love on Saturday. It was alright, and I was glad to go with my sister, but I would not care about seeing it again. Once was fine.

My son loves KickAss. I watched it with him when we saw him in July.
Comment by Kris, Stevens mom on August 17, 2010 at 6:51pm
We rented KickAss (gory but ok) and Invictus (very good) the other night, both enjoyable movies for us, really want to go see The Expendables, Inception and Scott Pilgrim vs the world.
Comment by carols_kitchen on August 6, 2010 at 11:50am
Sounds like INception is a movie that has to be watched 2 or 3 times to catch it all. Movie that requires thought--think that will be good some time this winter when I have cabin fever.
Comment by Dodie on July 19, 2010 at 10:22pm
Carol - Inception has Leonardo DiCaprio. While I don't swoon over him, I think he is an excellent actor. Love his movies. The Departed was excellent. Inception was really good. I'm going to have to watch it again when it comes out on BluRay so I can catch anything I missed the first time.

@JLS--I was surprised our newspaper gave Sorcerer's Apprentice such a good review. Thanks for confirming it.
@dodieg--who is in Inception?
Comment by Dodie on July 19, 2010 at 4:26pm
Hubby & I went to see Inception last Friday. Very good special effects. Interesting story line, but don't take any bathroom breaks or you'll miss something. The movie is almost 2 1/2 hrs long.

I loved Homefront! It was such a well done television series and am glad to know you can buy it.
Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on July 15, 2010 at 10:28am
You're right JLS, the pink sub was in 'Operation Petticoat,' good Googling! :) 'Father Goose' also starred Cary Grant along with Leslie Caron.
Comment by carol on July 11, 2010 at 1:35am
Shoot, I can't think of the title, but didn't it have Cary Grant and they had to take women aboard, and one of the women was a clutz, and he married her in the end?
It's not Father Goose, is it?
