FTA on DVD

Saw the Jane Fonda/Donald Sutherland FTA movie tonight,
about the forgotten and covered-up enlisted man's protest against the
war
in the early 70s.....about soldiers refusing to fight, fragging
superior officers, etc.

I never knew that happened. I was living in the sticks in Colorado in
the 70s, without
electricity and with little contact to outside world. Pretty
interesting stuff (the movie, not me).

Made me think of Dave. So I logged in here for the first time in a
half a year.
Reminded me how the right-wingers told us we had to fight the Viet Nam
war, else all hell would break loose.
And then we lost and retreated in disgrace. And as it turned out, we
were right. Viet Nam didn't matter at all.
Here we are 40 years later and Viet Nam means nothing to nobody. And
all those right wing
morons who made us fight that stupid war were never made to pay the
price they should have paid.
You should watch it Dave. I recommend it.

Grasshopper fishing is getting good too, by the way.
Might be the best hopper fishing since way back then: rivers are high
fast clear and cold.
And it's August. Amazing.
