I foresee a discussion of the "right way, wrong way, military way" concept.

Re: I’m Bored 2015-10-12
Boy this brings back memories of the Supply Sgt on the other end of the duplex giving me copies of PM Magazine when i was in 1st grade. That was the year I field stripped and reassembled an M60 at Armed Forces Day at Schofield Barracks and got my picture in the Army Times. Quite a coup for a Navy Brat.

Then, might I recommend The Lone Gladio?oldmanmickey wrote:Well since i was one of those USAF Techs (ICBM"S) i can tell you if she has her hands on a copy like one i umm forgot to turn in yea, lets go with that, then it reads like a cross between the boy scout manual and the poor mans james bond.
It's a “fictitious" spy novel about Operation Gladio's plan B written by a former CIA analyst.
Here's the blurb:
Assassinations. Drug running. False flag ops. A shadow paramilitary global network. Synthetic wars. CIA-NATO: A darker truth. Operation Gladio Plan B: Murder.

Parents should never send their bored child to find a book on their personal shelves without supervision. I discovered some...interesting...reading as a child that way.
That said, I'm intrigued by where this might go.

I wonder what books are in Castela's collection? I'd suggest Gerald McDermott's books like "Arrow To The Sun", "The Magic Tree". I've always loved Daniel Pinkwater's "The Big Orange Splot."

I learned about the birds and the bees before my parents were ready for me to learn that way...and then some. Lol...I guess that's what happens when you store the educational book you bought to share with your daughter in the same place as your raunchy romances.AnotherFairportfan wrote:I found Doc Smith and the Saint that way.Julie wrote:Parents should never send their bored child to find a book on their personal shelves without supervision.

So where do you think she's going to settle? There's so many age-inappropriate books a precocious child with the potty mouth of a salty sailor can settle on!
