Default Jack Webb and the 1959 movie "The D.I."

That was Parris Island, also the Stanley Kubrick movie "FMJ" was shot there. Best "Grad' from PI in my beloved USMC and ops. area- Carlos Norman Hathcock- aka- L'ong Tran or White feather. No, I was on the Western side of I-75 or whatever N-S divisional meridian the USMC used back in the 1960's, so I was a "Hollywood Marine"- MCRD San Diego, Lindberg Field, the big bay and the USNRD across the water, the palm trees and the yellow footprints on the tarmac, the battleship grey WW11 era USN buses that brought us from Lindberg Field into 19 weeks of Boot Camp--

I'll send you a direct e-mail my friend, the other night I filled up my oldest daughter's Taurus for her, gas was $3.25/gal for 87 octane- today it is $3.65, and it's a drive from the GR area solo down to Sanford area- also got my invite card to the MI "Yooper Shoot" in june, price went up $25 from last year, that's a 12 hour haul from my locale, and bridge tolls.

This Lybia thing is another disaster pending for us- "From the halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli" but I hope those who are presently serving Our Country (including in my beloved USMC) don't have to repeat that history just to "stabilize" oil prices. My late Grandfather told me that the stock market was a "rigged game", so is OPEC-- Best regards my friend!!
