Low key, and half the time I don't have much energy for more when I get home.
That is hiliarious about you being the one to get the call. Given the number of people I'm guessing you were on the carrier over there. Was it the Indie that was there before the Kitty Hawk?
Crypto guy, makes sense.

That's funny I have Call Of Duty 3, obviously don't play it came with the box.

No not a bird farm. I really think CVN's have more people then 1300. I was on a AD- Destroyer Tender. Repair ship, we spent months in Yokosuka working on the Kitty Hawk- AKA the "Shitty Kitty." That was the one WestPac I was on we didn't hit 10+ ports. That was the nice thing about my ship, our job couldn't be done at sea. So we bee lined it from one port to the next. Fours years and the longest time at sea was 23 days- Diego Garica to Indonesia. On that float the only movie we left Diego with was "The Man From Snowy River." After a little over a week of it playing nightly on the mess deck they assigned different roles to folks and the crew provided the words, line by line. I had Kirk Douglas' part for a couple nights. When I got home my parents had my wife and I over, they rented that video. I told my wife I've seen it. But I sat and watched all while thinking "God I'm sick of this freaking movie!" I told them I'd return the video. When I got home I put it in the VCR, turn off the sound and showed my wife "see I've not only seen it, I can repeat every freaking word."
