Ferocious Marine: Journeying Respectfully to Appalachia

Posted on | September 18, 2010 | 14 Comments

I need to get on the road within the hour to make Lewisburg, West Virginia by noon. If fortune smiles, I’ll produce a daily series of brief clips of a fellow who is the Genuine Article telling a story for the ages. Last Sunday, I met one of his daughters at the 9/12 DC rally, there on the West Lawn. She sketched the sort of tale that would give a bald man a perm, and I said “I would love to interview your dad,” and exchanged contact info. May the Almighty smile on this endeavor.

So here is a whirlwind FMJRA:

            You know people likely don’t realize how much busywork it takes to do those lists.

            We should all be properly grateful.
