isn't the sea usually involved *at some point* when it comes to the Navy?

[asimplechord]

I wanted to see the extended Meet the Press interview with Adm. Mike Mullen (military/press tension is supposed to be addressed), so I clicked through the links on the website instead of listening to the segment that included Bloomberg's bullshit about continuing the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy. The video wasn't up yet (it is now), but the site led me to the JCS bio for Mullen.

His rise in the Navy started at sea.

Really, Navy/JCS PR people? Someone on your staff actually wrote and posted that line, seriously?

Yeah, Cliff started outside Chicago & then went to San Antonio, and Josh started in Indiana. I didn't understand the San Antonio thing either.

Maybe they wanted to be sure whoever was reading understands that the Navy is related to the sea?

(It's totally cool. I have more Belle story to send you. Also, it took me forever to write this comment b/c Illy has learned how to make grabby hands that mean "pick me up" and I can't resist her chubby little self.)
