Flame Throwers Are Passé

Flame thrower
Now, right about here is where your complaints & feedback overriding collide

Zero folks torched Captain!

I don’t think this kind of report is provided anymore.

Nope, modern commanders receive a comprehensive battle activity summary illuminating all manner of carpets and the shite load of items begging to be swept under them.

And jeepers, these disclosures can go on and on and on.

For the most part these dossiers are jam-packed with aromatic crapola like:

Of course, that’s just today’s tip of the iceberg news. Tomorrow is a whole different debriefing so really, you MUST stay tuned.

Thank you, friend.

Barry out.

Easy as one, two, three, forever. Sheeoot.

Ballad of the Green Beret

by Staff Sergeant Barry Sadler and Robin Moore, copyright 1966

Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America’s best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret

Trained to live off nature’s land
Trained in combat, hand-to-hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage peak from the Green Berets

Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America’s best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret

Back at home a young wife waits
Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her his last request

Put silver wings on my son’s chest
Make him one of America’s best
He’ll be a man they’ll test one day
Have him win the Green Beret.

Much of what I write will be quite understandable to insane folks.

The rest will be, uh, less understandable...

    Similar to the way The Powers That Be run the world, I had hoped to produce a story that was a little fucked up.

    I believe I’ve done that.

    Of course, when one is as majorly fucked up as I am, its a challenge getting anything even just close to a little fucked up.

    I hope you can tell how upset I am by my plethora of cursing.
