Thread: Travel not advised by Department of States

It's kind of funny. Around some 25 years ago or so, I would welcome that kind of danger. Going to hotspots, shipping out at sea, ship full of explosives in foreign countries, including Desert Storm. Didn't think nothing of it. I liked it. I embraced the unknown and dangers. We joked about it. Even before that while in the service. Young and dumb. Invincable. Everything will turn out all right as it always has. If my ship hits a mine in the Persian Gulf, who cares, I go up in one huge bang, don't feel a thing, and just get erased. No big deal.

Fast foward now to my present time. Say what? Was I crazy or what? Probably so, not any crazier than I am now, but I wouldn't do those crazy things anymore, cuz if I go and get myself killed in these hotspots, my wife would KILL ME even more!!!!
