protests marches startup again. Welcome to the real world.


Well, YOU could tell them to leave. If they ask you just who you think you
are, simply say, in a LOUD voice:

"I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three
continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses
and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and
tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a
dozen fortunes, KILLED MANY MEN and loved only one woman with a passion a
FLEA like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. NOW, GO
HOME, BOY!"

They will instantly conclude you are crazier than they and decamp.
