Cellos were playing what????

I found a pretty good radio station here, better than anything I could find in NC or in FL. “The River” plays a nice variety of newer rock music (Audioslave, Beck, Flogging Molly) with some “classics” mixed in (I heard some R.E.M. from Document, U2 from War, and old Offspring today).

You’ve heard me talk about the awesome-awesomeness of getting to shop at commissaries, so I won’t go through all that again. Incidentally, the Offutt AFB commissary just … Read more
