Transcript:
"Where is Pig today?"
"I took him to the bus station...He's going on some trip."
"Where did he go?"
"Who knows?...Probably to the beach or something...Isn't that what everyone does on these long weekends?"
Thanks, man. Fell in with good buds in basic. They decided to volunteer for Special Forces, so I went along. I was NOT much of a soldier, but I got to know some great ones in Group. Thanks for showing us Pig’s good heart and essential friendly morality. He’s smarter than most of us…
Boom. Hit me right there. My heart is crying, for poor, sweet, Pig, having known someone only to have them be yanked away. Really makes you think that sometimes, Pearls isn’t about strange, offensive, and otherwise unfunny jokes.

50.000 dead US-Americans and about 1.5 Million killed Vitnamese civilians – mostly by those US-Americans – and who gets a pompous memorial?

Ask not what your government can do for you; ask what it will do to you.
