I don't say this to whizz on you ,KGB.................well maybe I do.





I'm kidding.







But I hold more for the guy who didn't have any talent and went to war...saved lives at the risk of his own until his luck ran out....or maybe someone else did the same thing,but their luck didn't run out and he came back to blend in with the crowd and no one knows about him. Except him...and he's good with that.

MDF....I agree with you, I hold those in the highest regard. I was merely relating a positive story about the young man the thread was about. Addictions are a bitch and the manner in which Josh is handling his situation is inspiring.

I agree.

I was watching the HR Derby with my dad and he goes "There is a kid that had the world by the balls, pissed it away, and he was given a second chance, and took advantage of that"
