the other day

leathery woman on the beach over at guerrillas in the midst wrote a posting on autism. i just read this one about an 18 year old autistic young man (who was recruited and joined the army) over at skippy
who read it in bring it on based on this story:

Two words: messed up. It's pretty clear that the guy didn't know what he was getting into. Cretins.

Congrats on your "new" son! Jeez, your life must be vewy scawy. I didn't realize Christ was striped. I figured he wasn't spotted because he wasn't Irish.

I'd like to quote a verse from Bubba 3:15:

"Today, my brethren, thou hast heard of the second coming. Thou shalt know me by my plaid flesh, which has been given up for you.

When I return, I shall dance hither and thither in a Protean fashion and thou shalt call me MR. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE! POPCORN! UH! yEEEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!"

mr in the midst; don't be jealous because i have a new son! you had EVERY opportunity to try to sleaze your way into my life and defraud me of my fortune. and yes, it's DISGUSTING about him being recruited. the GOOD news is (i just read it somewhere but i've lost it now) they have let him out of the contract (or whatever it is you do when you enlist)
AND i love to dance with or without bubba!

p o p - recruiters are in big big big trouble these days. they'll take just about anyone
