Say a prayer, if you will
for my 2nd-cousin, twice-removed, Sophie Delott, 17-years-old, who was killed Friday night biking home. In the bike lane, with front-&-back lights on her bike. The drunk who killed her could apparently afford their BMW, but not a taxi ride when it counted the most.
I've never met Sophie, & now never will.

I'm so sorry Ghost. That is terrible.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

Damn
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

The Marines were going to be training her (after the same grueling basic training as everybody else, of course) to be a medic. I would guess, though don't know, that they might have eventually sent her through medical school.
