What is wrong with you people! Haven’t the Vietnamese suffered enough?

Thudpucker and Boopsie are the only grownups that have kept their children’s eyes …

i wonder if Phred shows up in this timeline.. seems like he should!

I was a 1AO, but my big brother did a tour. I was best man at his wedding in 1969. I gave him my Swiss Army knife. He was, and is, a funny guy. When he was transferred to Hawaii all he had to say about my knife was the blade broke digging a bullet out of a tree. He tossed it. One blade broke? oh well

So B.D. isn’t a Beatles / Lennon fan?

my favorite song of all time.

That is so sad.

it’s like Germany with David Hasselhoff

My least favorite song of all time
