The following is a guest post from longtime friend of MBTN, Edward “Bunt the first Two” Hoyt:<\/em><\/p>\n

“They got rid of Reynolds.”<\/p>\n

>”Well, they designated him for assignment. He may yet survive.”<\/p>\n

“I liked him.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>> “Well, I did too. I guess he was just the most expendable and the least claim-able guy on the roster to their estimation. A lot of people’s estimation, I would guess. To tell you the truth, this isn’t a big surprise to the fellers at the Crane Pool<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

“Eff the stupid Crane Pool! It’s not fair!”<\/p>\n

> “Son, I’m going to look past that first sentence of yours. About the other part, well, I’m your father, and I guess that means that I’m supposed to have accumulated a lifetime’s worth of wisdom. But I suppose you’re starting to realize that I don’t know a helluva lot, and apart from the whole playing-in-traffic thing, I’m not all that wiser than you, and pretty soon I won’t be fooling your sister either.

“Wow! You’re smart, Daddy.”<\/p>\n

“Yup.”<\/p>\n
