Merry Christmas to you guys and to all the southsiders of yesteryear and the north and westsiders and all the guys that didn't come back whole and are forever 19 and 20 years old. And Old Comiskey and Ollie Matson and Gale and, all of it. And Buck and Shoeless and all the kindred spirits on this site and all the guys and gals who locked and loaded or sent a brother or dad or husband or someone they loved off to say:" no one's gonna hurt you tonight, not on my watch." God bless you all, God love America.

Agreed but rather a strange post.

Feeling a little maudlin?

Throw Gil and James into the list and I’m with you. Really missed those guys in my twenties - not so much now. Absolutely no fun watching the country we loved slowly turn to crap.

Just think, when Jesus rules the world will be better than America.
