Thank you Miki for giving me the honor of handing Swamp Thing his red hat.  It has been a great summer working with ST.  He has surpassed every challenge that he was given.  ST is an excellent instructor.  I can't wait to have him working for me.   ;D
From his first event in Fenton when I pulled him by the leg to get his "body parts" behind the firing line I knew he was one of us.
Sir, Welcome to the fraternity, I could not be more proud of you.
Congrats, Brother

Criticism is the only known antidote to error.  David Brin

What a nation has done, a nation can aspire to.
Dr. Jerry Pournelle

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."  one who has not qualified himself with the M-16 may not be considered to be a responsible citizen."
