Glad to hear. Hope you're feeling better soon.

How's your situation going?

He’s out 6-8 weeks (broken hand).

When does Albies return ?

 

[Leeleesteeth]

Headed to the ER with my wife. Prayers, kind words and encouragement are appreciated.

Praying for y'all.

I have had frequent headaches since I was a child and occasionally get ocular migraines. I do enjoy the trippy rainbows I see emanating from any source of light at the beginning but dread what is to follow. I have enjoyed various binaural beats sound creations for modifying my state of consciousness and discovered a couple of decent ones which have often helped with headache when OTC medication did not. Some people respond better to isocronic tones for brainwave entrainment purposes but I find their repetition too annoying. Hopefully these may help you.

I played these and found myself expecting a familiar guitar riff or melody from Pink Floyd to present itself.

As I see it, wars are manufactured to feed the corporate industrial war machine, to steal wealth from the citizens, transfer it to private corporations, empower their political lackies and get them re-elected in perpetuity. If we really wanted to serve our vets better, the citizens would rise up and put a stop to that instead of asking those perpetual political lackies to do more for the soldier-fodder after they use them up and throw them aside.

I normally like a lot of what you post. This isn't one of those times. Kind of surprising.

 

[drvenner]

@Plove23 I know this makes your day just like it did mine.

21 yr vet here. Hard to undo and un see the things we’ve done. Try to hang on for those around me, all I can do sometimes

Stay strong
I never severed but had several family members who did and I watched them struggle with PTSD one of which lost the struggle.

There is something to be said for the Military Industrial Complex. Not sure how far I'd go with that.

....yessir, indeed it do

More recent generations of soldiers are much open about their issues. WW1 and 2 vets were a different breed. The WW1 guys weren't far removed from the much harsher realities of the less tame 1800's and WW2 soldiers had just endured the Great Depression.

They undoubtedly suffered either in silence and you had others that took it out on their families throughout the 50's. Those guys also had a much more simplified outlook toward the enemy being "evil" an inciting the situation.

Wars since then have typically been long-term wars of attrition with more civilians involved that blurred the lines of morality. Plus, info is much more widespread and the media much more willing to run negative stories about veterans and the military in general.

Yes...that makes sense.

@drvenner

Hope all is well with you and your's! Prayers and well-wishes for your wife...hope she feels better real soon.

 

[butchna]

When does Albies return ?

I think September.

 

[mrMet]

Morans,

Please tag me in any subsequent banter regarding sports betting, or guns. Cant have enough discussion on guns.

God forbid those squirrels in back yard form an alliance to overthrow the human overlords. Gotta put em down.

I didn’t realize you hated guns too. You really are a commie huh

 

[drvenner]

How's your situation going?

Thank you for asking. She had a scan and we're waiting on results. If there are worse places in the world than ER waiting rooms, then I really pity those folks having to endure them.

 

[drvenner]

Praying for y'all.

Thank you sir. I hope you didn't wait too long for the punch line.

 

[drvenner]

Goodness man. Sorry to hear. Prayers sent.

Thank you, Brother

Are we sleeping on Cam Seldon this year? Not been a lot of talk about him since he’s been injured. This guy is FAST for his size and with his weight he is not afraid of contact in the slightest. Runs hard and fights for yardage in this video against a really good defense. I think it will be interesting to see if we get another Small/Wright -type backfield again but with Seldon/Sampson this time.

 

[CABVOL]

@CO Vol you good today, brother?

 

[CABVOL]

@Weezer how are you feeling today, brother?

 

[drvenner]

There is something to be said for the Military Industrial Complex. Not sure how far I'd go with that.

Yes, there is. I just think calling soldiers fodder is disrespectful. The biggest majority of the people I served with were very committed to what they were fighting for and did not believe they were being sacrificed. There is no doubt that many good young men and women have died fighting in a war with questionable motives. Almost without fail, I'd bet they'd do it again.
