Now I may be an idiot, but there is one thing I am not, sir, and that, sir, is an idiot.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Sorry chief.

I was flying in this morning, listening to music, and Stapleton's "Daddy doesn't pray anymore" song came on. I found myself tearing up on the plane thinking of not having my dad around. Felt like an idiot sitting on the plane with tears running down my cheeks.

Praying for you guys.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.'

I think I misspoke now I re-read my post. My dad is still alive...I got teary eyed thinking of him not being around. I don't like to think about that day. As I get older, the realization that he won't be around forever is here. It was just weird that happened this morning and then read this post.

Sorry for the confusion!

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Take my advice. Spend as much time as you can with him and tell him how much you love him.

Thank you all. I appreciate your kind words. We laid him to rest this evening. It was a beautiful and uplifting service. I heard so many great stories about my dad and my heart swells with pride that he was my dad.

I gave the eulogy and I was able to make it through with only 2 near choke ups. Standing there at the pulpit and telling everyone about my dad was the most gratifying and difficult thing I've ever done.

Keep us in your thoughts and prayers. We're going to need them as we move forward into life without him here.

I'm praying for you PCT. I'm sorry to hear of your father and Navy buddy's passing and extend my condolences to you and them. Time heals all things.
