Well I started on Tuesday, and there have been some big headlines since. Probably the most important came out today with the naming of a new Pope. I have no comments to make on the man, as he hasn’t yet had a chance to take any action as Pope to be commented on or judged. And I am not the one for that job in the first place. I am not Catholic but I do realize there is real power in the Pope.

We’re done with that shit,” he said, adding “We’re focused on lethality, meritocracy, accountability, standards and readiness.”” (quote from Zerohedge)
