The Goliad Massacre
This Saturday, we found ourselves doing a bit of traveling to Goliad, Texas. It was on March 27th, 1836, that the infamous Goliad Massacre took place at Presidio La Bahia. Everyone knows the story of the Alamo, but few know about Goliad. It was the scene of the worst massacre in Texas history. There were 342 men murdered, with only 28 men escaping, with the help of the Angel of Goliad, and 17 being spared, due to the intervention of a colonel. This barbaric act by General Santa Anna cemented him as a cruel and brutal man, and rallied the people of Texas, along with the U.S., Great Britain and France, into defeating him and establishing the Republic of Texas.
As per Texas law, fields cannot be mowed until wildflowers have gone to seed. We had a spectacular view of Texas wildflowers: (more…)

Hm. It’s almost like those people who think that if they don’t speak your language all they have to do is shout louder and you’ll get it. They simply aren’t loud enough yet. Soon we will all see the correctness of their ways.
Technically it was LC Aggie Sith who was #1600, but since she writes here, she don’t count.

In Memoriam
High Flight, by John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
- Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
- And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
- Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
- of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things
- You have not dreamed of—wheeled and soared and swung
- High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,
- I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung
- My eager craft through footless halls of air….
- Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
- I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
- Where never lark nor even eagle flew—
- And, while with silent lifting mind I’ve trod
- The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
- Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Hookers and Booze got its 100th comment today. The honor goes to LC Aggie Sith who said:
It’s a good thing I was drinking coffee when I saw that….I would hate to waste good booze by spewing it all over.
Now the 99th comment was posted yesterday at around 11am. I was really starting to think y’all knew I was waiting on number 100 and were just fucking with me.
