For me the
holiday season was always the most rewarding time of the year as a child
interested in hunting. I had every issue of deer and deer hunting
magazine to fill in during the non-holiday months. But hearing and
seeing hunting as a kid can never be replaced..those memories will stick
with you the rest of your years. During Christmas and Thanksgiving, we
started a tradition. My Grandfather, God rest his soul, used to sit down
after the meal and tell us of all the deer hunting stories he remembered
growing up. For me their was no better story teller that lived.
Anyhow, I took the sergeant up on the deal he offered. After
three months with the 101st in Dak To and Tuy Hoa, I was sent on a
temporary duty assignment (TDY) near the DMZ to learn field station
operations from the 8th Radio Research Unit at Trai Bac Station in Phu
Bai. From there it was off to Pleiku where we worked first in support of
the 25th Infantry Division and later the newly arrived 4th Infantry
Division.
What the hell? Why would
these people, this underclass, this despised minority, feel a kinship
with a singer that represents the right wing status quo? Shouldn't these
guys be listening to Steppenwolf (or at least Eminem)? Lets face it, the
main stream of America doesn't hang out in places like this. In fact,
most suburban middle class goons would prefer that these people simply
vanish from the planet. So why would the customers at Twisted Sisters
get behind this new super nationalism? This was like seeing Jewish kids
singing Deutschland Uber Alles, for god's sake.

Sales of Ford's Lobo pick-up
truck are falling sharply with Mexican consumers because as it turns
out, the truck is a favorite of cartel hit men and drug runners. Drivers
are now afraid to drive the truck out of fear for being mistaken by
cartel gunmen as a rival. Li-Li led me into a corridor leading to an office in the back of
the building. There she introduced me to Mr. Nguyen van Duong who wasted
no time in getting to his questions. Duong was an ugly man, small and
fat at the same time. His hair was thin for a guy in his 40s, and he
used a pomade to plaster it to this head. The skin on his face had an
oily sheen to it. His lips were fat and reminded me of raw liver.
Once there, Teddie stashed his bike in the storage shed
and they mounted the front steps of their new apartment together. She
fumbled in her pocket for the key, her hands shaking, some part of her
expecting to see the man in his big
buy truck mud flaps pull up
at any minute. He doesn't even know you're gone, she thought, and
finally found the key. Jumping off the back of the
deuce-and-half truck, brushing through the crowd of peanut girls, I
headed to the bar. It was a beautiful day with sunlight dappling the
shaded roadway. It all came back to her then, how he'd lain sobbing in his room
across from hers while the man raged in the livingroom, how she'd
slipped into his twin bed with him and wrapped her arms around him until
he was finally asleep, how she'd read chapters of "Charlotte's Web" to
him each night, how he'd raced on his bike through the dark streets the
night they'd finally made their escape. She'd let him in on it early on,
told him all about her plan to find a new place where it would be just
the two of them and how he wouldn't ever again have to lie awake at
night afraid of what was going on in the livingroom or of what he'd see
in the morning as he headed out for school. He'd told no one. It was
their secret. It's hard to do anything. It's hard to button your pants or brush
your teeth, let alone jump off a three-story building into a pad. This
movie was the most physical thing I've ever had to do, and I had to do
it with a broken hand. It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my
life. Constantly having to take hits and fall and run through explosions
and get hit and beat up all day. Aside from my hand, I also got 25
stitches making this movie, in various parts of my body -- stuff that
had nothing to do with my hand.
