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."

Well...DARN! Thanks Drama!
We LOVE Slapshot!
I was going to post clip with the Hanson Brothers but there are TOO many F-Bombs! Oh my, just the one clip where they fight BEFORE the game starts and then the National Anthem is being played...the ref is fuming and can't stand it and starts reading one of them the riot act...and the response he gets is: "I'm LISTENING TO THE *bleeping* SONG!"
Ditto B... Thanks for the update. Keeping young man in prayers and glad to hear how your sons are doing. Brrrr..ND!

There was a lot of "soft porn" in other groups. It's not what I am here for. If others want it, that fine. But if that becomes the predominant theme here, I am gone. I have hear about Magic Mike. Haven't seen it. Hubby and I will watch it when it comes out on DVD.
We have sports on morning, noon and night and Fox and CNN. Then it's THE VOICE. NCIS (reg and LA). We flip stations often.
Still haven't heard from my old classmate's son. My former sailor is settling in nicely to civilian life. Taking care of a house and working full time is more time consuming than he had expected. LOL. Younger son still in ND, getting ready for the winter.

Of course if you like hockey you could watch 'Slapshot'.
-

Nah...hockey is locked out. Cancelled until November the last I heard. Looks like basketball preseason, football and the World Series is the current sports activities. Don't know about curling and cycling doesn't start until the Tour Down Under early part of next year.

Eww, I agree Drama, no Magic Mike.
Hey, did Hockey start? I like hockey.

Now THAT I would object to!! Any of you checked out Dan Patrick's man cave? You wanna talk about the first game of the World Series?

Geez! One stinkin' dad's board and you all litter it with Helen Reddy and Steel Magnolias. Might as well put a trailer for Magic Mike up there.
So much for a man cave.
-
-
I'm really not the"feminist type" or anything...just funnin'.
Steel Magnolias is about the only Chick Flick I have and those women are tough! LOL.
The rest are all mostly stupid humor, Sci/Fi, and action/adventure...does Kill Bill count as a chick flick?

We need something to talk about...
