"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil.
You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway.
So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them.
Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot.
It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you.
I like brawling."

Marine General James Mattis

Panel discussion in San Diego, California (1 February 2005) as quoted in "General: It's 'fun to shoot some people'" CNN (4 February 2005)(For a more contextualized explanation of General Mattis' remarks, see this essay by one of the Marines who served under Mattis: "Breaking the Warrior Code" The American Spectator (February 11, 2005) by John R. Guardiano

"For all the '4th Generation of War' intellectuals running around today saying that the nature of war has fundamentally changed, the tactics are wholly new, etc.,
I must respectfully say,

'Not really':

Alexander the Great would not be in the least bit perplexed by the enemy that we face right now in Iraq, and our leaders going into this fight do their troops a disservice by not studying- studying, vice just reading - the men who have gone before us. We have been fighting on this planet for 5,000 years and we should take advantage of their experience.

'Winging it' and filling body bags as we sort out what works reminds us of the moral dictates and the cost of competence in our profession."

Marine General James Mattis

Nov. 20, 2003, Addressing the detractors of untested Marine tactics in Iraq.

After over 1 year on the market, my house in Mississippi sold yesterday. However, I have changed my mind. I think I want to move back into it! I got my price and the woman even wants to buy several pieces of my furniture, but after considering everything, (including CA's politics) I think I'll be better off returning to Mississippi. I have not signed anything!
I have not slept since I agreed to sell. Thankfully, I made some demands in the counter offer so maybe that will kill the deal. The buyer wanted me to lease my house to them for 6 months while they "got their financing" ... I didn't like that at all, so I said the rent would be $3k per month, + lawyer fees to get them out, should any trouble occur.

I'll soon be running on vodka.

Praying that God will guide you in making whatever is the best decision for your future.

I'm with you on not liking the "Let us move in while we work on getting financing" idea. Sounds too iffy to me.

Hugs to you dear onyx.
