The first time I saw an elephant it took my "breath" away the size and massiveness of the animal. I've gotten into a lot of trouble over my few years of life (buried 53 "co-workers" in a 10 year period of "life"). Mostly trouble came for asking the wrong questions to the wrong people, had my clearances lowered and some even taken away, only to have them reinstated later ("just couldn't get along with out me, could ya!") but you don't piss off a full bird Colonel and expect to get away with it even if you're the nephew of a "star." If you knew the half of it you'd cry yourself to sleep every night. If you had first hand knowledge of a standing President of the USA inspect 12 different UFO's and saw his reaction the first time he'd "seen an elephant" it would make you remember the first time you saw one. Enough said on the subject, I'm just a nut. |
