(Vapor, Splash and Vic preparing to provide water to Richmond). There was good news flying around that made everybody laugh. There’s a new child coming into this world just starting where many of us are getting ready to leave. So there was that and there was a lot to talk about. Each one could have […]

“Yike! The State Department Counter Foreign Information Manipulation & Interference Hub, or “R/FIMI,” is still open!” There was pandemonium near the Black Rifle Coffee urn in the Galley.
