I hope for David Parry that he can get back on the rails after restiutution and do something really really good in those 40-50+ years that we talk about with our recruits.
Stymie, I went off the rails more than once while on the farm. I am not sure I am on the right track, but there are rails under me for sure. I could not watch more than a few minutes of that video as it reminded me of a certain night where I went way off the track and a couple of close friends kept me from going to jail. FYI no cars etc. involved just a very drunk buddha trying to curse out Stanford PD before I had some sense (literally) knocked into me by some friends.
Heroism is not defined by one great act, but by a lifetime of right action.
