More inspiration that maybe even I could learn to fly.

I have any money next year, looking at signing up for lessons.

Various -ist types of the medical and dental persuasions are doing a good job nickel and diming to death.

When I was playing pickup sandlot baseball with some other grade school kids at Ft. Benning, there was this civilian kid with no arms OR legs who rolled in and wanted to play.

Some other kid was pushing him around in a wheelbarrow.

We let him play home plate.

Who says Army brats don’t have a heart?
