Welcome back to the Scuttlebutt. Lexicon: the vocabulary of a person, language, or branch of knowledge. In short, “words”. Well, I really hadn’t planned on weighing in Trump’s “go back where you came from and fix it” tweet, but I don’t have a better target for the week, and this seems right…
Welcome back to the Scuttlebutt. Once again, I have a surplus of targets and limited time. First please let us have a moment of silence for the 14 Russian Submariners still on patrol. Their heroism may never come fully to light, the Russian Navy only grudgingly admitted which boat they were on.…
