laughs at you as he shows off his latest pictures :twisted:

I'd make a joke about Shep's time of the month, the huge amount of pics, and heavy flow, but nah...

It's great to see that the memorial was finally built, a bit late, but it was built. That relief of the Soviets meeting the Americans was beautiful, and a bit tear jerking...

My Folks went to the dedication this weekend.

As for the OP, I assure you, the Lonestar Album: Gang Of Bastards Edition will be superior!

Yeah, see, the thing is, the Navy doesn't like me uploading files onto the 'net from any of their servers. MWR included. Who knew?

I'm going home on leave in a few weeks, I'll do it then.
