Tanker tours the mother-in-law





I've been struggling a bit of late. There really don't seem to be many folks who share my principles, and that's quite bothersome.

Only a couple of possibilities of course. Either my principles are correct, or they are not.

Taking a page from the Socratic playbook, I've been examining my life under the brightest lights I can bring to bear. It's a process.

The fellow who made these videos is an Army tanker who was born and raised in Ireland and served for a time in the Irish armed forces. He seems to have an interesting story. You might enjoy visiting his youtube channel, particularly if you like tanks. And who doesn't like tanks?
