    Lonnie, I sent this link to a local major player in Lafayette. Big Smile

     

    Here's a true story I always enjoy sharing...

     

    My BFF Sue had a nephew who attended a prestigious military prep-school during the 80's. And, as you may guess, there was a good bit of the usual teen pot-smoking going on behind the scenes after Kill-drills. ***YOUTH!!!  Wasted on the young!***

     

    Well, the Commandant caught wind of this (Literally? I don't know...) and tracked down a "sure sign" of usage to the presence of a "drug disc" so commonly found in the quarters of the red-eyed suspects, and he promptly banned them from The Compound, er...campus.

     

    "Drug disc"  being synonymous with Frisbee. Which I find funny, because I'm sure I've heard (Urban myth? I don't know...) that The Army invented them to throw messages between trenches during war time...back when standing in a trench was thought to be the best way to spread Freedom and build Democracies.

     

    I guess it didn't work out for The Army. Too many troops cleaning Hippie-lettuce and rolling phat ones, perhaps; Maybe getting high and wondering what purpose they were serving by killing their fellow man at the behest of some rich, bald, white guys in the warm, SAFE buildings so far, far away... 

     

    Nope, can't have them Devil's Disc in the hands of those whose free thinking we fear most. What would happen if nobody would fight their wars for them?

     

    Maybe we'd all get together toss the frisbee around...when we weren't finding other uses for it!
