Of Andrew, of Patrick, of David, & George, What mighty achievements we hear! While no one relates great Tammany's feats, Although more heroic by far, my brave boys, Although more heroic by far.
These heroes fought only as fancy inspired, As by their own stories we find; Whilst Tammany, he fought only to free, From cruel oppression mankind, my brave boys, From cruel oppression mankind.
"When our country was young and our numbers were few To our fathers his friendship was shown, (For he e'er would oppose whom he took for his foes), And made our misfortunes his own, my brave boys, And he made our misfortunes his own. "At length growing old and quite worn out with years, As history doth truly proclaim, His wigwam was fired, he nobly expired, And flew to the skies in a flame, my brave boys, And flew to the skies in a flame.
Bin Laden is dead, shot in the head by a Navy Seal. God bless the troops and intelligence apparatus that nailed him. And I do thank Obama for giving the operation a green light.
That being said, he is now a martyr and his death does not mean the end of Islamic terrorism. This is just one part of the battle, though an important one. May there be many similar operations in the future.

Jeff: I am not. I thought about starting a FB page, but I dunno.
If you look up Brooke Tarvin you will find a wedding photographer. Heh.
My husband is on FB, and I will occasionally look at his site and post stuff to it. David Tarvin.
He does the FB, I do the bloggin'. ;)
Keads: It would've been really super cool if this was a PR thing that wasn't photoshopped, eh?
FJ: Are you back?!? It is wonderful to see you!!!
Back until the next walkabout.
Kawanio che keekeru!

The sly little devil ;-)
Angel: You, too!
Gator: I'm not sure. A dead terrorist and a birth certificate in the same week? Since when did Obama decide to become super-prez?
Burial at sea? Right away? ACCORDING TO ISLAMIC RITES?!? WHISKEY-TANGO-FOXTROT?!?
Cube: Not sly; BRILLIANT. ;)
Brooke, who the heck is THE DOCTOR? I think I'm getting too old for your wonderful blog! :-)
By the way, meet the only other person on the planet who hasn't an FB account!
Hey FJ: koo koo kachoo to you too, Mrs. Robinson! :-)
Hilarious.
I guess the Doc does his best work in the background.
FB tends to take lots of time away from blogging and wears out your mouse button from clicking "Like" too much.
Brooke, maybe the Doctor's sonic screwdriver can do something about Wills' sudden baldness ;-)
Z: It's Dr. Who, a classic and current sci-fi series, in fact, the longest running ever!
No way are you too old! Check it out.
Cube: That was surprising, eh? As long as that is the only way he takes after his father...
