was a tough day. seems to transfix me every time the footage is shown on television. a good friend of ours was on flight 11, he was a great guy and i usually wait and watch the reading of the names until his comes on...a lot of people lost a lot of friends on that day, good people, they came by a few times for a swim in the pool, he was on a business related trip to LA... his kids and and three of mine were friends from the martial arts studio. my oldest....a 6"4" black belt competitve martial artist and MANY of his friends joined the marines...including two nephews of mine. these were americans not content to sit and whine or pussy about over political pap.......but willing to put their lives on the line defending the constitution and the rights and lives of the people of the greatest country yet on earth
here he is with the little dahhlins of afghanistan a couple years back
and again, on the left, before going out to search for some terrorists to kill ........
we've lost a lot of really REALLY good kids over there...and i'm pround to know a bunch of them
so next time some high schooler wants to bitch and whine about how tough her life is here in america
coffee's on me
