" Pretty soon Sherburn sort of laughed,
not the pleasant kind but the kind that makes you feel
like when you are eating
bread that got sand in it"
Mark Twain
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
- You had not aged a bit , Colonel since we talked for the first time in the Y2005.

You are still the same- a proud Southern aristocrat, talking to the lynching mob with a rifle in your hand. I though had aged considerably. Misery withers us, Colonel; we are in deep trouble even more than before. We thought the imbecile in power was the worst we could get but now we have a droner. This one kills from afar and then talks about peace. If he was in charge in your time, Colonel, he would not have rushed with the mob; he would have put you on the list and quietly shot you in the back. Or he would have sent a drone to destroy your house and kill all in it; so effective we had become, Colonel. Oh, BTW, he is African- American. Turned out that we are the same after all; malice and cowardice do not discriminate.
