No way! I am cracking up at that too, but I thought I was the only one with *that* kind of humor!

Porky's is a classic!

What did he say?

Basically: "Hey Congress, get off yer @$$. Appropriate the funding. Then sit down and shut up."

Of course, that's not an exact quote...

Finally have a day off to get caught up. Trying to get my body adjusted to the new work schedule. This is the first time I have ever had to work 2nd shift.

a GI blanket party

Uh, do we want to know what that is?

It's a form of "negative popularity contest". Make yourself a big enough pain to your fellow troops, and ignore the friendly warnings. Then one night, someone drops a blanket over your head, and a whole bunch of guys kick the crap out of you. At the hospital, your injuries are described as "fell down the steps (several times)".

I can't speak for now, but back in the 1970s, this was considered a humane way of exerting "peer pressure" on a wayward individual to straighten him out. It was certainly better than waiting until he got to Vietnam, and killing him there before he got good soldiers killed. "Friendly fire" really sometimes can be your friend.

We can hope and pray there is no need, but I'd like to be able to help if there is. I'll call the hospital later today and see if I can connect with someone.

That would be great, Corin! If your VA receives some of the casualties of this war, they'll probably be young men, not that much older than Jr. Could be a very good experience for him.

If you see a need for these guys that we can help fill, pass the word along. No reason we can't do a little of both!

You know Hair, that little monster may have been put in your path to help you with losing Logan. You had no idea he would go that fast, but you can't take much time to dwell on it because of 'Niner'.
Who knows?

Yeah, falling out of those high bunks can be dangerous! I pretty much thought that's what it was! LOL!
