Some of you actually use the links to the right so I thought I'd give you and update. Corrigan decided to start his own blog. He's an very smart albeit interesting character with an interesting perspective on life and war. The views posted on his page, Helmand: 911, are not necessarily the views of this author, or him for that matter. Anyway, he's become a good friend of mine I promise it'll be interesting reading as he develops his page. Corrigan is serving his third tour, 2 in Iraq and now here. He volunteered for the last two. For me, that speaks enough on his behalf, despite his quirks.
For a softer look at life, check out the Malone's webpage, featuring Karli, their beautiful new daughter. I can't be held responsible for any content there as well, the parents are a little odd!!
Below, holding the beloved Maisel's is one of my best friends and college roomy, Scotty. He's a professor of Sports Medicine. One of his concentrations is researching head concussion and he probably got the interest in it by how many times we bumped heads drinking what he's holding.

"Fear breads a deadening caution, a holding back, a stagnant waiting until people no longer can recall what they are waiting for or saving themselves for. When we fear failure more than we love life; when we are dominated by thoughts of what we might have been rather than by thoughts of what we might become; when we are haunted by the disparity between our ideal self and our real self; when we are tormented by guilt, shame, remorse, and self-condemnation, we deny our faith in the God of love."
