Morons

(following inspired by this )

   My mother HATED that my brother and I joined the services (she was a bit overprotective in some ways, but she still let us grow into men, as evidenced by our service and her pride in our service, though “her boys” were better than that and all that) we served, and invited mom, sometimes payed for mom to come visit us at appropriate times.

  We spent most of our christmas’ and summers in FLA with my brother who was AF, during Shuttle Launches (my brother was a volunteer for . . . I forget the title, 443rd rescue squadron? who flew the rescue missions if the shuttle exploded)  I was in the Marine Corps, my mother was present for my graduation (as was a friends aunt, and a number of other friends and parents of friends) and she changed her attitude.  2 years later my mother was my “date” at the MC ball.

  I can understand why SF doesn’t want anyone to see this, because then their derision wouldn’t be as meaningful.

  You can’t not, not be proud of someone who is part of something so brilliantly disciplined, beautiful and noble, when you see something like the blue angels, the thunderbirds, or the golden knights.  SF is affraid that “the children” will see something worthwile executed in a way that shows absolute perfection, discipline and faith.   All of which are counter to the SF concept of supremacy. 

One Hitter

That has absolutely GOT to suck!  Bottom of the ninth, 2 outs, and it’s a shot between second and first, losing the no hitter.  I blame ESPN for mentioning it so much, and pre-empting PTI.

YOU DON’T TALK ABOUT THE STREAK!

YOU DON’T MENTION THE NO HITTER!

Blasphemers! 

Update: His june 2nd post, shows why I think this guy rocks.

Let’s see, I sucked, we still won. That about cover it?

That takes some nuts, specially for a first round hall of famer.

But it doesn’t end there.

Seriously, I did suck

Now he is probably the only guarantee’d first balloter on his team right now, but he says that?  Thats a Man who knows.  But it’s not over.

He’s swinging the bat as well as I have ever seen him.

He’s talking about Posada, the opponent, he isn’t saying HE screwed up, he’s praising his opponent, THATS nobility.

OH! WAIT!!!!  IT continues.

I was fortunate enough to start the fifth with a clean slate whereas Mike had to com e back out to 2^nd and third no outs. We get two out of it and are now up 3-1.

I will leave it there, read his blog.

I bet tomorrows posting will be the best yet.

A good man, even though I hate the whole “SAWKS” “YANKEETHS” thing, I chi, but Curt is a good man, and is honest.
