STOLEN!!! Temporary set back!

STOLEN-THE CAPTAIN’S PHONE WAS STOLEN AT THE RAT FINK CAR SHOW ON JUNE 4TH.

THERE ARE BAD PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. I KNOW AFTER SERVING AS AN FBI AGENT FOR 25 YEARS THIS IS A SAD REALITY.

I’M SICK ABOUT THE LOSS OF MY PHONE FOR THE BIGGEST REASON THAT BEING THAT I HAD OVER 40 PHOTOS OF VETERANS WITH MYSELF FROM THE CAR SHOW INTENDING TO PUT THEM ALL ON MY WEBSITE. THOSE PHOTOS HAVE NOW BEEN LOST. MY SINCERE APOLOGIES TO MY FELLOW VETERANS. I HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL AGAIN AT OTHER EVENTS SO THAT WE MAY TAKE THOSE PHOTOS AGAIN.

I WILL NOT LET THE BAD ACTORS IN THIS WORLD SLOW ME DOWN. WE SHALL GET A NEW PHONE AND CARRY ON!

THERE IS GOOD IN EVERYTHING SO LET US FIND THE GOOD IN THIS SAD STORY….THE CAPTAIN WILL NOW FINALLY GET A NEW PHONE, FOR THE STOLEN 4S MODEL WAS PROBABLY NOT THE BEST PHONE FOR THE CAPTAIN AND ALL I AM DOING.

GOD BLESS AMERICA AND MAY THE PERSON WHO STOLE MY PHONE TURN THEIR LIVES AROUND SOMEDAY. I FORGIVE YOU WHOEVER YOU ARE.
