Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Something with satellites and nuclear weapons. I'd have to kill you if I say more.
ABOUT ME
Moved to Berga not very long ago & started using CS again. Looking forward to seeing how this community evolved during my (5-5?) year absence!
PHILOSOPHY
Happiness is not a destination, it is a way of life. Future and past don't exist anywhere but in our minds; it's our present moment attitude that decides our well being right here, right now.
