Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.Comment

While my temple is the Jefferson Memorial, I do plan to visit Lincoln again later this month. I felt the spirit stronger at both than I ever did in god's temples.Comment

The Jefferson Memorial is such a PITA to get to. Also they're renovating the grounds around it right now.Originally posted by woot View Post"Nobody listens to Turtle."-TurtlesigpicComment

In addition to the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials, I loved wandering around Arlington, esp the Tomb of the Unknowns. I also took the time to just wander around some of the graves of the regular GIs not just the famous ones.
I also feel very reverant at the Wall - my family has a special connection with a couple of names on it.
I may be small, but I'm slow.
