Medal of Honor

I am an unapologetic fan of NCIS. When I was in the Navy, it was called NIS, or the Naval Investigative Service. Myself and friends were often concerned about any NIS agents sniffing around our world...they had large sniffers. In 1992, the NIS mission was again clarified and became a mostly civilian agency. Roy D. Nedrow, a former United States Secret Service (USSS) executive, was appointed as the first civilian director and the name changed from Naval Investigative Service to Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Nedrow oversaw the restructuring of NCIS into a Federal law enforcement agency with 14 field offices controlling field operations in 140 locations worldwide. And I have become a fan of the TV show. Early on, I was not a fan of Mark Harmon...he seemed full of himself and his fame. But he's grown into the role of Jethro Gibbs in a way unlike any other role he's played. And my favorite episode stars Charles Durning in what might be called his best performance as an aging Medal of Honor winning Marine trying to turn himself in for killing his best friend on Iwo Jima. I couldn't find the complete episode, but this taste is one of the best scenes...: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or5wIJ5eQCg 

When you get the opportunity...watch it.

Fall Oxymoron....

September sunlight bending gently, angular and white.
Darkness cut like a green bean...oblique, scattered...
Clouds...black then white...the light so bright - like
A white blackness! Almost GOOD then almost EVIL.

Last night a 3 year old with a bullet to the brain.

Fall Harvests human nature....  

The Voters Take a Dump....

Donald the Trump was out on the stump
Feeding his hairy ego.
He claims there's no one in the land
Better built to go where he go.

"Stupid is as stupid does,"
Everyone else is painted.
To all he'd yell his famous phrase
"You're fired! And I be sainted!"

But just in case he has a chance,
And voters have fooled me before,
Let's pass a law that asks the POTUS
If the thing on his head might roar!

Guns Don't Kill People, People Who Shouldn't Have Guns and Do...Kill People.

The NRA will say, very soon, that there's nothing we could have done to ensure that this hateful kid had no access to guns. Of course there are things we can do...but we don't do ANY of them. Gun advocates claim we are out to take away all their guns...we aren't. Why do they believe that a Federal Law to provide for reasonable background checks would be so unreasonable? THEY ARE TRYING TO PURCHASE A PRODUCT THAT KILLS. Who is unreasonable?
