We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
Something tells me that these young men are more fortunate than many of the millions of bored, jaded, medicated, overweight college students we have in this country...These young men are getting a crash course in the school of life, leadership, sacrifice, accomplishment, and yes death that indespensible part of life. They will be the better for their efforts...
I loved this and smiled all the way through it. American spirit of fun. I also love watching these guys playing with the Iraqi children. What a sight that is!
