Scruffy reminds of old Bill Tuttle, who hangs out and posts at John Donovan’s blog. He most recently got blown up and concussed at somewhat past the age of 70, Over There. He just can’t give that stuff up. He’s also arguably among the best combat helicopter pilots in the whole world.
Bill, like most combat helicopter pilots who are still alive, prefers to attack at low level, down in the bushes. I see that Scruffy is sensible in that way too.
Oh, by a blog digression from Cap’n Lex’s place, to HBDChick’s place, to Assistant Village Idiot’s place, in a comment about stealing bases. I mentioned that my Georgia homeboy Ty Cobb, arguably the meanest man ever to play major league baseball, used to keep a file in the dugout to sharpen his cleats. He would always take care to slide into the base with at least one sharp foot at crotch level.
I lurve a mean old tomcat, be he two-or four-legged. Like an honest man, he is one of the noblest works of God.
Perhaps you could try to reform him.
Complaining about what? You not letting him bite you?
That is pretty harsh of him 🙂
