Keyboard Courage…

I am watching Hurricane Ike like a hawk. Why?

…real simple…loved ones are down there (and not so far away I may add).

I am also reading up on commentary from people getting out of the way who are blogging, and also seeing some keyboard cowboys whose opinions just make me sick.

Look, if at any time, you feel the actions by people so courageous that they stay and face disaster to help others and protect their homes is so stupid that their loss is a benefit to the gene pool…keep it to yourself. It’s the indifference of men that make us fail, and the opinions of asshats that exhibit nothing more than Keyboard Courage – that is – something you say online that you would never have the balls to say to someone’s face with the same tone. It is YOU who are the genetic baggage of the world. The rest of us take part in it. You may continue working so hard at trying to justify why you’re hiding away in front of a keyboard when millions of people are in trouble.

If i wasn’t in my office working right now I would already be down there helping, and there is a strong chance I may still go down there to help.

Many of these people that are so “foolishly” staying in the path of destruction have been instructed to do so or are staying on behalf of others.

So when you generically tell someone they are stupid for facing dangers. STFU before I slap your parents for having you.

…on that note…work is done and I am out of here. Take care all.
