    Perhaps all is not lost?

    The fruitcakes and nitwits get all the ink (or bytes), but then there’s this. If you have Twitter, here’s the link.

    Thank you for that. That was something truly worth reading today.

    If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.

    Saw this on the company webpage. Watching it coincided with some fierce pollen or something because my eyes were all watery .......

    Yeah, me too. Pollen was fierce all over last night.

    It hit something pretty deep. For one thing, my own father died when I was 13. For another, the son is exactly my age, and when I was 5, at the time he was waving goodbye to his father, instead of writing a letter to my grandparents one week, I wrote a letter to the soldiers. My mom figured the newspaper would be able to get it to a platoon with soldiers from Philadelphia. They ended up publishing it and writing a story about it, and when I got lots of replies and patches they wrote another story. This brought all of that back.

    And now here’s one of the reply tweets:
