why did you leave home?
Came across this written by Philip Caputo, ( who was in the featured in the Vietnam war tv series, in the army and latter a writer)
it really hit home to me
"Some guys keep moving because they're curious. They've got to see the other side of the hill. Some guys like variety, but Greene, he was always on the move because he was miserable inside. Guess he's settled down now that he is an old man, but back than, he was afraid of what he might do if he ever stopped moving or maybe he was afraid he'd have to face something about himself he didn't want to face"

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: why did you leave home?
What? Live in Michigan my whole life? I don't regret.leaving just not having seen more of the world.
As my old Cajun bait seller used to say, "I opes you luck.
