''"Now back in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, 'I' am once again at work in the factory, probably dreaming of my exploits among the stars. Meanwhile, here I am slogging through a swamp on Acey-Two with a 15-kilo pack on my back, looking for monsters (and not really wanting to find them). I don't know whether to curse 'me ' or bless 'me.'
