    No problem, it is not a secret.

    Dismantle drug dealing gangs in the central region of the Amazon Forest, and get non-indian out of indian territory. As a note, I don't like dealing with indians, but...

    No way to get anything more than my laptop, kindle and some clothes there, I could trade some ammo or food space for a game, but I don't think this would be wise

    But aside from staying away from family (She who sees all, included) it is not that bad. It is just that I am getting old for this kind of work

    I tend to think of it like an adventure

    And as I missed the KS Project, I already arranged the SoG to be shipped to my friends house in my absence

    Not a venomous one, but lots of bacteria in its mouth, so, no playing with it

    I have enjoyed every snake meal I have had. The best was cobra soup.

    This one got away because we were at the beggining of the mission, it would rot before we could cook it :)
