    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      I was in the cub scouts. I always thought it was a bit bizarre. I'm not sure how they were in the US, but the old English guy who ran the scouts proper lived down the road from us and there was more than a hint of Lord Kitchener about him, which even at that tender age I found a bit weird. There was a lot of time spent polishing these brass things and marching up and down towards the WW1 cenotaph. I abandoned the woggle when I broke my leg rock climbing.

      I was only joking

        For us, cub scouts was playing games, arts and crafts, community service, earning merit badges.

          I briefly joined the Scouts when I was in elementary school but for logistical reasons had to stop after a short stint. I was pretty upset over it for a while but promptly found other things to do after I got to middle school. :man-shrugging:

            I was asked to leave the Cub Scouts because I never went to the meetings.

            I continued that behavior throughout my professional career.

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              I got kicked out for eating too many brownies.
