There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

If you think I'm going to provide evidence regarding activities that involve links and playing music with the feet, you are in great need of another think.

I'm not sure if I should be pleading the fifth or drinking a fifth regarding this topic, but in any case you can't prove it was me, so there!

stay safe.

As an experienced law student, I can say that I undoubtedly qualify for certification as an expert in the restorative effects of drinking the fifth.  If it contains Tequila, that is. Cheesy

(Disclaimer: ianal.  Obviously.  Huh, the disclaimer kind of kills the humor.  Oh well, CMA.)
