Who cheer when soldier lads march by, Sneak home and pray you'll never know. The hell where youth and laughter go. Siegfried Sassoon

I didn't know my Dad - he moved out early. And my mom's politics were kind of hardscrabble. She didn't think about Democrats or Republicans. She thought about who made sense. I've been both in my life. Dennis Miller
