Facebook reverses on paid influencers after Bloomberg memes

Sounds reasonable, I’ll let you do the close in work, I’ll provide overwatch.

FRiend, I am too old and fat to be the tip of the spear any more. The militias in pre-revolution America, had three categories of members. In a nutshell. The young bucks (young, unmarried, and full of piss and vinegar) where the real minute men. They could respond at a moments notice with few, if any, consequences. The next group were a bit older, married and with a bit of military or frontiersman experience. These guys could respond quickly and gave the first group a bit of leadership and guidance. The last group were up there in age. They had the will and the knowledge, but were a bit long in the tooth. They were the original members of the "Old Man's Club*". They provided training and expertise, protected the homestead or village, and acted as backup to the younger guys. All three groups stood shoulder to shoulder at Concorde Bridge and Lexington Green

Much to my dismay, that's where I am. The knees are shot, arthritis is setting up in the hands, and I need a more powerful scope to see the same things I used to when hunting. Still, the will is there and I am preparing so that i am able to do what must be done; when the time comes. As cliched as it sounds, the oath I took back in the day still hold true. Foreign and domestic seems to have taken on a much clearer meaning in the past several years to me. As I've gotten older, my "Give A F*** Meter" doesn't seem to work the same way it did when the kids were younger and there seemed to be more time in the world. Finally, I plan on getting an "Old Man's Club" tee-shirt sometime in the near future. At this point in my life, I think that I've earned it :-)
